Warning!
Maintain sight of the area around the rear
of the vehicle while operating the trunk lid
with the door mounted switch. Monitor the
closing procedure carefully to make sure no
one is in danger of being injured.
To interrupt the closing procedure, press or
pull the door mounted remote trunk
opening/closing switch.
Even with the SmartKey removed from the
starter switch or the SmartKey with
KEYLESS-GO removed from the vehicle, the
remote trunk opening/closing switch can
be operated. Therefore, do not leave
children unattended in the vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s
unsupervised access to a vehicle could
result in an accident and/or serious
personal injury.
If the trunk lid comes into contact with an
object while closing (e.g. luggage that has
been piled too high) in the upper motion
sequence, the closing procedure is stopped
and the trunk reopens slightly.
In vehicles with trunk opening/closing
system you can close the trunk from the
inside using the remote trunk opening/
closing switch.
