Keyless Entry Transmitter: Description and Operation

- To unlock the luggage compartment door, press the TRUNK button twice on the keyless entry remote transmitter. Two presses are required to prevent inadvertent luggage compartment door opening.
- To turn on interior lamps and door lock cylinder illumination, press any of these keyless entry remote transmitter buttons: UNLOCK, TRUNK or PANIC.
