Hatch/Trunk Lid Release
To use the hatch/trunk lid release on vehicles with an
automatic transmission, your vehicle must be in
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). For manual transmissions,
set the parking brake. See
Parking Brake on page 2-30
.
Press the button with the trunk symbol on it, located
at the left side of the steering column on the instrument
panel, to release the hatch/trunk lid from inside your
vehicle.
The remote keyless entry transmitter will also release
the hatch/trunk lid. See
Remote Keyless Entry System
on page 2-4
.
If your vehicle is equipped with a hatch and you have
lost battery power, use the manual release cables
to open the hatch. To access the cables, remove the
two access panels located in the rear of the trunk area.
There is one cable located under each access panel.
See
Rear Storage Area on page 2-41
for more
information.
Pull each cable straight down for each latch to release
the hatch.
