, the power to
the trunk lid will be canceled and the
trunk lid cannot be opened by the trunk
lid release switch, the trunk open request
switch or the TRUNK button on the
Intelligent Key.
When you have to leave the vehicle with a
valet and want to keep your belongings
safe in the glove box and the trunk, push
this switch to OFF and lock the glove box
with the mechanical key. Then leave the
vehicle and the Intelligent Key with the valet and keep the mechanical key with

OPENING AND CLOSING THE
TRUNKWhen opening the trunk, first unlock it
then lift up the trunk lid so that it is fully
open.
When closing the trunk, lower the trunk
lid and press it until it is securely locked in
place. The strap
(except for carbon
trunk lid models) or the handle
(for
carbon trunk lid models) can be used
when the trunk lid is dirty.
NOTICE
. Open and close the trunk without
grasping the rear spoiler. Grasp-
ing the rear spoiler to open or
close the trunk may damage the
spoiler.
. Do not leave the key inside the
trunk.
NOTE:
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from
being accidentally locked in the
trunk, lockout protection is
equipped with the Intelligent Key
system. When the trunk lid is closed
with the Intelligent Key inside the
trunk, the outside buzzer will sound and the trunk will open.
. The trunk of this vehicle is slightly
more difficult to close than an or-
dinary vehicle (particularly when the
vehicle is new). This is because the
trunk rigidity has been increased to
handle the high load on the rear
spoiler during vehicle operation.
This does not indicate that there is
a malfunction. Check that the trunk
is securely locked.
EMERGENCY TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNING
Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them
from playing and becoming locked
in the trunk where they could be
seriously injured. Keep the car
locked, with the trunk lid securely
latched, when not in use, and pre-
vent children’s access to Intelligent
Keys.
The emergency trunk lid release mechan-

until the lock
releases and push up on the trunk lid.
The release lever is made of a material
that glows in the dark after a brief
exposure to ambient light.
The handle is located on the back of the
trunk lid as illustrated.
2. Insert the mechanical key into the
emergency trunk lid opener and turn
it clockwise until it stops.
NOTE:
Because the trunk rigidity has been
increased to handle the high load on
the rear spoiler during vehicle opera-
tion, more force is required to operate
the mechanical key (particularly when
the vehicle is new). Be sure to turn the
key clockwise until it stops.Pre-driving checks and adjustments
