Opening the Trunk Lid from the 
Inside

Slide the illuminated trunk release slide 
lever in the direction of the arrow. The 
lever is made of material that will glow 
for hours in the darkness of the trunk 
following a brief exposure to ambient 
light.

The trunk release slide lever is located on 
the inside of the trunk lid.

Open Trunk Lid and Children:
Leaving the trunk lid open or leaving 
children in the vehicle with the keys is 
dangerous. Children could open the 
trunk lid and climb inside resulting in 
possible injury or death from heat 
exposure. Close the trunk lid, lock the 
rear seatbacks and do not allow 
children to play inside the vehicle.

Unattended Children and Pets:
Leaving children or animals 
unattended in a parked vehicle is 
dangerous. Babies left sleeping and 
kids who lock themselves in cars or 
trunks can die very quickly from heat 
prostration. Don’t leave your children 
or pets alone in a car at any time. 
Don’t leave the car, the rear folding 
seats or the trunk unlocked. Always 
keep the car from being a tempting 
place to play by locking rear seats, 
doors and the trunk, and keeping the 
keys where children won’t play with 
them.
