Trunk Lock
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the key and
turn the trunk lock cylinder.
Remote Trunk Release
Pull upward on the remote release handle, located on the
floor near the left side of the driver's seat, to release the
trunk lid. Make sure the lockout feature is not activated.
Lockout Feature:
Your remote trunk release may be equipped with a
lockout feature
to help prevent unauthorized entry into
the trunk when leaving the vehicle unattended. The
switch is located on the inside of the trunk lid, mounted
to the trunk lid latch.
2-9

To turn the lockout on,
slide the switch all the
way
to the right. To
turn the lockout off,
slide the switch all the
way to the left.
When the lockout is
on, the mechanical remote trunk
release will not release
the trunk lid. However, the trunk
lid can still be opened with the key.
If
you have the optional Remote Lock Control feature,
your vehicle is not equipped with the trunk lockout
switch.
Convenience Net (Option)
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You’ll see it
just inside the back wall of the trunk.
Put small loads, like grocery bags, behind the net. It can
help keep them from falling over during sharp turns
or
quick starts and stops.
The net isn’t for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can.
You can unhook the net so that it will lie flat when
you’re
not using it.
