Release lever in this vehicle
and how to open the trunk in

locked in the trunk.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
NEVER allow anyone to occupythe trunk of the vehicle at any
time. If the trunk is partially or
totally latched and the person
is unable to get out, serious
injury or death could occur due
to lack of ventilation, exhaust
fumes and rapid heat build-up,
or because of exposure to cold
weather conditions. The trunk
is also a highly dangerous loca-
tion in the event of a crash
because it is not a protected
occupant space but is a part of
the vehicle's crush zone.
Your vehicle should be kept locked and the Smart Key
should be kept out of the
reach of children. Parents
should teach their children
about the dangers of playing
in trunks.
Use the release lever for emer- gencies only.

safety device. It only serves to
assist the driver in identifying
objects directly behind the mid-
dle of the vehicle. The camera
does NOT cover the complete
area behind the vehicle.
WARNING
Never rely solely on the Rear
View Camera when backing-
up.
ALWAYS look around your vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any
direction to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention when the vehicle is driven
close to objects, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children.

es (120 cm) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that senses objects within the
range and location of the sensors, it
