Opening the Trunk Lid from the 
Inside

Pull the illuminated "T" shaped handle. 
The handle is made of material that will 
glow for hours in the darkness of the trunk 
following a brief exposure to ambient 
light.

The "T" shaped handle is located on the 
inside of the trunk end trim.

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 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 or the trunk 
unlocked. Always keep the car from 
being a tempting place to play by 
locking doors and the trunk, and 
keeping the keys where children won’t 
play with them.

WARNING

Always keep the handle firmly 
attached to the holder and in the 
recessed position. Not securing the 
handle this way could allow it to snag 
luggage in the trunk and open the trunk 
lid.
