Emergency trunk safety release
ORG3050045
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Emergency Trunk Safety Release lever
located inside the trunk. When someone
is inadvertently locked in the trunk, the
trunk can be opened by moving the lever
in the direction of the arrow and pushing
the trunk open.
WARNING
• You and your passengers must
be aware of the location of the
Emergency Trunk Safety Release
lever in this vehicle and how to open
the trunk in case you are accidentally
locked in the trunk.
• • NEVER allow anyone to occupy the
trunk of the vehicle at any time. If the
trunk is partially or totally latched
and the person is unable to get out,
serious injury or death could occur
due to lack of ventilation, exhaust
fumes and rapid heat build-up, or
because of exposure to cold weather
conditions. 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
vehicle’s crush zone.
• Your vehicle should be kept locked
and the Smart Key should be kept
out of the reach of children. Parents
should teach their children about the
dangers of playing in trunks.

NOTICE
• Do not close or open the Power Trunk
manually. This may cause damage
to the Power Trunk. If it is necessary
to close or open the Power Trunk
manually when the battery is drained
or disconnected, do not apply
excessive force.
• Do not leave the Power Trunk open
for a long period of time. This may
drain the battery.
• To prevent damage to the trunk lift
cylinders and the attached hardware,
always close the trunk before
driving.
Information
In cold and wet climates, trunk lock and
trunk mechanisms may not work properly
due to freezing conditions.
Power trunk non-opening or closing
conditions:
• The Power Trunk will not open or close
automatically, when the vehicle is
moving more than 1.8 mph (3 km/h).
• The Power Trunk can be operated
when the engine is not running.
However, the Power Trunk operation
consumes large amounts of vehicle
electric power. To prevent the
battery from draining, do not operate
it excessively (e.g., more than
approximately 10 times repeatedly.)
• Do not modify or repair any part of the
Power Trunk by yourself. This must
be done by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
• Before jacking up the vehicle to
change a tire or repair the vehicle,
open the Power Trunk. Do not operate
the Power Trunk when the vehicle is
raised or this could cause the Power
Trunk to operate improperly.
• If there are obstacles such as snow
on the Power Trunk, it may not open
automatically. After removing the
obstacle, try to open it again.
Automatic stop and reverse
ORG3050043
If, during power opening or closing, the
trunk is blocked by an object or part of
someone’s body, the power trunk will
detect the resistance and it will stop
movement or move to the full open
position to allow the object to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak such
as from an object that is thin or soft, or
the trunk is near the latched position,
the automatic stop and reversal may not
detect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the
Power Trunk is forced by a strong impact,
the automatic stop and reverse may
operate.
If the automatic stop and reverse feature
operates more than twice during one
opening or closing operation, the Power
Trunk may stop at that position.
If this occurs, close the trunk manually
and operate the trunk automatically
again.

Convenient Features

operating the power trunk:
• Keep all faces, hands, arms, body

body parts or objects in the path
of the power trunk to make sure
the automatic stop and reversal
operates.
