Press the button twice within three seconds to open the trunk.
Make sure the trunk is closed and latched before driving your vehicle.
An unlatched trunk may cause objects to fall out or block the driver’s

the driver door with a key or using the lock control on the remote
control.
If both front doors and the liftgate are closed, your vehicle can be locked
from any method, regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.

remote control to unlock the doors or when you open any door.

Using the Rear View Camera System
The rear view camera system displays what is behind your vehicle when
you place the transmission inR(Reverse). The system uses fixed
guidelines which show the actual path the vehicle is moving in while
reversing in a straight line. This can be helpful when backing into a parking
space or aligning the vehicle with another object behind the vehicle.
Note:Do not use the camera system if either the trunk (sedan) or the
liftgate (utility) is ajar.
Note:If the image comes on while the transmission is not inR
(Reverse), have the system inspected by your authorized dealer.
Note:When towing, the camera only sees what is being towed behind
the vehicle. This might not provide adequate coverage as it usually
provides in normal operation and some objects might not be seen.
In some vehicles the guidelines (if equipped) may disappear once the
trailer tow connector is engaged.
Note:The camera may not operate correctly under the following
conditions:
•Nighttime or dark areas if one or both reverse lamps are not
operating.
•The camera’s view is obstructed by mud, water or debris. Clean the
lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
•The rear of the vehicle is hit or damaged, causing the camera to
become misaligned.
