Trunk Lid Emergency Latch Release
Your vehicle is equipped with a glow-in-the dark
emergency trunk release lever located inside
the trunk. It will glow after the trunk is closed.
When pulled, this lever will release the trunk
latch mechanism and open the trunk.
NOTE:o If a person is locked in the trunk by one's
own will or by another person or by acci-
dent, pull the emergency trunk release
lever on the driver's side of the inside
panel of the trunk. This will open the
trunk lid.
o HYUNDAI recommends that cars be kept
locked and keys be kept out of the reach
of children, and that parents teach their
children about the dangers of playing in
trunks.
WARNING:Parents should teach children about the emer-
gency trunk release lever in their vehicle and
how to open the trunk lid if they are acciden-
tally locked in the trunk.
