Your vehicle may be equipped with a
function permitting the separate lock-
ing and unlocking of the trunk using the
mechanical key. If present, this feature
can permit you to deny any unautho-
rized person access to the trunk by
locking the trunk separately and leav-
ing the SmartKey less the mechanical
key with the vehicle.
To verify the presence of this feature,
use the mechanical key to lock the
trunk an then attempt to open the
trunk by pulling on the trunk lid handle
after the vehicle has been centrally un-
locked with the SmartKey.
