&To lock and unlock the trunk
lid release lever
When you entrust your vehicle key to
another person, you can lock the trunk lid
release lever to prevent luggage in the
trunk from being stolen. To lock the trunk
lid release lever, insert the master key or
submaster key into the key cylinder at the
rear of the release lever and turn it
counterclockwise. Then, entrust the per-
son with the valet key only. To unlock the
trunk lid release lever, turn the key clock-wise. &Internal trunk lid release handle
The internal trunk lid release handle is a
device designed to open the trunk lid from inside the trunk. In the event children or
adults become locked inside the trunk, the
handle allows them to open the lid. The
handle is located on the inside of the trunklid.
To open the trunk lid from inside the trunk,
pull the yellow handle upward as indicated
by the arrow on the handle.
This operation unlocks the trunk lid. Then,
push up the lid.
The handle is made of material that
remains luminescent for approximately
an hour in the dark trunk space after it is
exposed to ambient light even for a shorttime.
WARNING
Never allow any child to get in the
trunk and play with the release
handle. If the driver starts the vehi-
cle without knowing that a child is
inside the trunk and the child opens
the lid using the release handle, the
child could fall out and be killed or
seriously injured.
CAUTION
. Do not close the lid while grip-
ping the release handle. The
handle may be damaged.
. Do not use the handle as a hook
to fasten straps or ropes to
secure your cargo in the trunk.
Such use may result in damage
of the handle.
. Load the trunk so that cargo can
not strike the release handle. If
the cargo hits the handle while
the vehicle is being driven, the
handle may be pulled up and the
trunk lid may open. That may
cause cargo to fall out of the
trunk, which could create a traffic
safety hazard.
