Warning
Be aware when the trunk is opening or closing. Make sure that no people are in the vicinity of the trunk when it is in motion. Always use the trunk access functions with caution. If there is an obstruction when closing the trunk, you will hear a beep.
Do not interfere with the trunk support arms; they are highly pressurized, and tampering with them can result in serious injury.
After use, check the display for indications that the trunk is fully closed.
Manual access
If the vehicle is unlocked, you can simply open the trunk using the button in the middle of the trunk hatch.
Hands-free opening
If you're carrying a distance-capable key, you can use the hands-free feature. Make a single kicking motion under the rear bumper to activate automatic trunk opening.
Buttons on the trunk's interior
Press the close button on the inner right side of the trunk hatch to close it.
You can also use the close button to adjust how far the trunk opens. This is useful if you want the trunk hatch to stay within easy reach or if you are somewhere with a low ceiling, such as a garage.
Press the trunk lock button when carrying a distance-capable key to close the trunk and lock the vehicle. If the trunk can't lock for some reason, you will hear three beeps.
Access via the center display
You can open and close the trunk using the controls in the center display. Press and hold the button to complete the trunk movement.
Pinch protection
The vehicle can detect obstructions to the trunk hatch when opening or closing. If the trunk hatch tries to close with an obstruction in the way, you will hear a warning sound and the trunk will open fully. If pinch protection activates while the trunk hatch is opening, the lid will stop moving.
Locking with the trunk open
Note
If the trunk is not properly closed when you lock the vehicle, the alarm won't be fully enabled. In these cases, the alarm will only protect the side doors.
Once you close the trunk, it will lock and be covered by the alarm.
