lock,
It is not necessary to slam doors or
trunk lid closed, a pneumatic power-
assisted mechanism will latch doors
and trunk lid quietly and automatically
once the lid or door has been brought
to a close. When the pneumatic power-
assisted mechanism has stopped, doors
and/or trunk can be reopened.
Note:
If the trunk lid does not close, refer
to Trunk Lid, Manual Closing in
Index.
Warning!
To prevent possible personal injury,
always keep hands and fingers away
from the door or trunk opening when
closing a door or the trunk lid.

children are around.
The pneumatic power closing assist
mechanism cannot be interrupted once
it has been engaged.
To prevent personal injury, never
activate the closing assist mechanism
by tampering with the door or trunk lid
