Trunk (Sedan) - Chevrolet Malibu 2005 Owner's Manual

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 2-32.
