Inside emergency trunk lid release (ECLIPSE SPYDER)
The emergency trunk lid release provides a way to open the trunk lid from inside the trunk. It was developed to help pre- vent death and serious injuries, to children who might become locked inside a vehicle trunk. The luminous “T” shaped yellow emergency trunk lid release handle (see illustration) is mounted near the latch inside the trunk. The handle glows in the dark after exposure to sunlight.
Features and controls
You and your family should familiarize yourselves with the location and operation of the emergency trunk lid release han- dle. Children should be taught not to play in or around vehi- cles.
To open the trunk from the inside, pull the handle in the direc- tion of the arrow on the handle. Push up on the trunk lid to open the trunk and climb out.
WARNING! ● Children should never be left unsupervised in or
around vehicles.
● Unsupervised children could lock themselves in an
open vehicle or trunk.
● People trapped inside a vehicle or trunk, even if only
for a short period of time, can quickly die from suf- focation or heat stroke, especially on hot days. Inte- rior temperatures in vehicles can rise in minutes.
● Keep your vehicle doors locked and the trunk lid closed when not in use. Keep your vehicle keys away from children.
CAUTION! ● When loading the trunk, place your things so that
they will not touch the emergency trunk lid release handle when you close the trunk. Otherwise you could damage the handle and make it unusable.
● Always keep the handle in its holder when driving so that your cargo cannot accidentally bump it and open the trunk.
