Trunk lid control switch
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 smart key.

in the LOCK position ( ), the trunk
can be unlocked with the mechani-
cal key of the smart key.

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.

Your vehicle should be kept
locked and the Smart Key
should be kept out of the reach
of children. Parents should
