Trunk (Sedan)
To unlock the trunk from the outside, use the key or
the remote keyless entry transmitter. When closing the
trunk, close from the center to ensure it fully latches.
{
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You cannot see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even
death. If you must drive with the trunk lid open
or if electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass through the seal between the body
and the trunk lid:
•
Make sure all other windows are shut.
•
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed and select
the control setting that will force outside
air into your vehicle. See Climate Control
System.
•
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See Engine Exhaust on page 2-36.
