To replace the battery:
1. Insert a small coin or flathead screwdriver in the
notch near the key ring to separate the bottom half
from the top half of the transmitter.
2. Remove the battery and replace it with the new one.
Make sure the positive (+) side of the battery faces
upward. For battery replacement, use a three
-
volt
battery, type CR2016, or equivalent.
3. Snap the transmitter back together tightly to be sure
no moisture can enter.
Trunk
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the key into
the trunk lock cylinder and turn it clockwise.
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk open
because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can come into
your vehicle. You can’t see or smell CO. It can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
If you must drive with the trunk open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and
the trunk:
D Make sure all other windows are shut.
D Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on VENT. That will force outside air into
your vehicle. See “Comfort Controls” in
the Index.
D If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See “Engine Exhaust” in the Index.
