Driver Controls POWER TRUNK (IF EQUIPPED) Your vehicle may be equipped with a power trunk controlled by the interior trunk control, the key fob or the keypad on the door. If anything obstructs the power trunk while it is closing, the trunk will automatically reverse to the open position, provided it meets sufficient resistance. Resistance must be as strong as the force of the closing trunk, or stronger. The force of the closing trunk increases as the trunk approaches the latched position. The trunk will close with the next press of the interior trunk control or key fob button. Make sure all persons are clear of the luggage compartment area before using the power trunk control. If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is installed, the power trunk needs to be reset. To reset the power trunk: • Reconnect the battery with the trunk closed • Power activate the trunk with the power interior trunk release, the key fob or the keypad on the door to the full open position, then power activate the same power source and fully close the trunk. The power trunk is now reset. INTERIOR TRUNK CONTROL The remote trunk release control is located on the driver's door trim panel and can be operated at any time except when your perimeter alarm system is armed. If your vehicle is equipped with a power trunk, press the button once to open the trunk, press it again to close. You can render the switch inoperable by locking the button with your master key. The remote trunk release control and power door locks will be disabled when the vehicle perimeter alarm system is armed. This control will not work until the vehicle perimeter alarm system is disarmed. Refer to Perimeter Alarm System in the Locks and Security chapter. 143 2005 Town Car (tow) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA_English (fus)
