To open the trunk lid from inside the trunk, press the yellow handle down-
ward 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 approxi-
mately an hour in the dark trunk space after it is exposed to ambient light
even for a short time.
B Inspection
Perform the following steps at least twice a year to check the release
handle for correct operation.
1. Open the trunk lid.
2. Use a screwdriver with a thin blade. Slide the screwdriver blade
from the slit aperture of the lock assembly fully to the end until you
hear a click. This places the latch in the locked position.
