Leaving Your Vehicle

If you are leaving your vehicle, open your door and set
the locks from the inside, then get out and close the door.

Trunk

To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the key and
turn the trunk lock cylinder or use the remote keyless
entry transmitter, if your vehicle has this feature.
When closing the trunk, push the trunk lid in the center
to ensure that the lock 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 can't 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" in the Index.
•
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See "Engine Exhaust" in the Index.
