INTERIOR LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT RELEASE

the event they become locked inside the luggage compartment.  
Adults are advised to familiarize themselves with the operation and  
location of the release handle.

To open the luggage compartment  
door (lid) from within the luggage  
compartment, pull the illuminated  
“T” shaped handle and push up on  
the trunk lid. The handle is  
composed of a material that will  
glow for hours in darkness following  
brief exposure to ambient light.  
The “T” shaped handle will be  
located either on the luggage  
compartment door (lid) or inside  
the luggage compartment near the  
tail lamps.  
Keep vehicle doors and  
luggage compartment  
locked and keep keys and remote  
transmitters out of a child’s reach.  
Unsupervised children could lock  
themselves in the trunk and risk  
injury. Children should be taught  
not to play in vehicles.  
On hot days, the temperature in the trunk or vehicle interior can  
rise very quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these high  
temperatures for even a short time can cause death or serious  
heat-related injuries, including brain damage. Small children are  
particularly at risk.
