Trunk lid control switch
(if equipped)
The trunk lid control switch is used to
prevent unauthorized access to the
trunk.
• When the trunk lid control switch is
in the UNLOCK position ( ), the
trunk can be unlocked with the
trunk release button and the
remote key or smart key.
• When the trunk lid control switch is
in the LOCK position ( ), the
trunk can be unlocked with the
mechanical key of the remote key
or smart key.
•Yo u a n d y o u r p a s s e n g e r s
must be aware of the location
of the Emergency Trunk
Safety Release lever in this
vehicle and how to open the
trunk in case you are acciden-
tally locked in the trunk.
•NEVER allow anyone to occu-
py the trunk of the vehicle at
any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
serious injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventila-
tion, exhaust fumes and rapid
heat build-up, or because of
exposure to cold weather con-
ditions. The trunk is also a
highly dangerous location in
the event of a crash because it
is not a protected occupant
space but is a part of the vehi-
cle’s crush zone.
