following:
• All filler caps in engine compart-
ment must be correctly installed.

Information
To prevent damage to the trunk lift
cylinders and the attached hardware,
always close the trunk before driving.
In cold and wet climates, trunk
lock and trunk mechanisms may
not work properly due to freezing
conditions.
Smart trunk (if equipped)
On a vehicle equipped with a smart
key, the trunk can be opened using
the Smart Trunk system.
NOTICE
i
•NEVER allow anyone to occu-
py the trunk of the vehicle at
any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
serious injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventila-
tion, exhaust fumes and rapid
heat build-up, or because of
exposure to cold weather con-
ditions. The trunk is also a
highly dangerous location in
the event of a crash because it
is not a protected occupant
space but is a part of the vehi-
cle’s crush zone.
•Your vehicle should be kept
locked and keys should be
kept out of the reach of chil-
dren. Parents should teach
their children about the dan-
gers of playing in trunks.
