2-18 Keys, Doors, and Windows The trunk may be opened by pressing the remote trunk release button on the driver door, V on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, or the trunk release button on the rear of the trunk above the license plate. On vehicles with the Keyless Access System, if the vehicle is locked, the keyless access transmitter must be within 1 m (3 ft) of the trunk for it to be recognized; the trunk can then be opened by the trunk release button above the license plate. Use the key in the trunk lock cylinder. Close the trunk by pulling on the handle. Do not use the handle as a tie-down. Trunk Lock Release Rear-Seat Pass Through If equipped with the rear-seat pass through door, this is useful when transporting long items. To open the door, pull down the rear seat armrest. Then pull the lever all the way down to release the door. To close the door, push it up and back into place. Then try to open the door without pulling up on the lever to make sure it is locked into place. The remote trunk release button is on the driver door, inside the storage compartment under the armrest. On vehicles with an automatic transmission, the shift lever must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral). On vehicles with a manual transmission, the shift lever must be in Neutral, and the parking brake set.
