POWER TRUNK (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a power trunk controlled by the
interior trunk control, the key fob or the keypad on the door.
If anything obstructs the power trunk while it is closing, the trunk will
automatically reverse to the open position, provided it meets sufficient
resistance. Resistance must be as strong as the force of the closing
trunk, or stronger. The force of the closing trunk increases as the trunk
approaches the latched position. The trunk will close with the next press
of the interior trunk control or key fob button.
Make sure all persons are clear of the luggage compartment area
before using the power trunk control.
If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is installed,
the power trunk needs to be reset. To reset the power trunk:
•Reconnect the battery with the trunk closed
•Power activate the trunk with the power interior trunk release, the
key fob or the keypad on the door to the full open position, then
power activate the same power source and fully close the trunk. The
power trunk is now reset.
INTERIOR TRUNK CONTROL

located on the driver’s door trim
panel and can be operated at any

power trunk, press the button once
to open the trunk, press it again to
close.
You can render the switch inoperable by locking the button with your
master key.
The remote trunk release control and power door locks will be disabled
when the vehicle perimeter alarm system is armed. This control will not

The extended rear park aid is
automatically enabled when the gear
selector is placed in R (Reverse)
and the ignition is ON. A park aid
control allows the driver to disable
the extended rear park aid only
when the ignition is ON, and the
gear selector is in R (Reverse).
The OFF indicator remains
illuminated when the system is
disabled. The system defaults to ON
every time the ignition is turned on. Press the control to disable or
enable the system.
The indicator will remain illuminated to indicate a failure of the extended
rear park aid.
Always keep the sensors (located on the rear bumper/fascia) free
from snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt (do not clean the
sensors with sharp objects). These elements may cause the
system to operate inaccurately.
If the vehicle sustains damage to the rear bumper/fascia, leaving
it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false alarms.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
If driving through deep or standing water is unavoidable, proceed very
slowly especially when the depth is not known. Never drive through
water that is higher than the bottom of the hubs (for trucks) or the
bottom of the wheel rims (for cars). When driving through water,
traction or brake capability may be limited. Also, water may enter your
engine’s air intake and severely damage your engine or your vehicle may
stall.Driving through deep water where the transmission vent
tube is submerged may allow water into the transmission and
cause internal transmission damage.
Once through the water, always dry the brakes by moving your
vehicle slowly while applying light pressure on the brake pedal.
Wet brakes do not stop the vehicle as quickly as dry brakes.
