Lockout Protection
If you press the power door lock switch when the key is

lock and the driver’s door will unlock. Be sure to remove
the key from the ignition when locking your vehicle.

three seconds.
Trunk
To release the trunk lid from the outside, use the key or
the remote keyless entry transmitter.
{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid

come into your vehicle. You cannot see or
smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness and
even death. If you must drive with the trunk lid
open or if electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the trunk lid:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed and select the
control setting that will force outside air
into your vehicle. See Climate Control
System.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
SeeEngine Exhaust on page 2-30.
