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.
