Smart Trunk

On a vehicle equipped with a smart key, the trunk lock can be opened hands-free by activating the Smart Trunk system.

How to Use the Smart Trunk

The trunk can be opened using the Smart Trunk function if the following conditions are met:

• More than 15 seconds have passed since all doors were closed and locked.
• The smart key has been within the detection area for more than 3 seconds.

✽ NOTICE

• Smart Trunk does not operate when:
  - The smart key is detected within 15 seconds after all doors are closed and locked, and is continuously detected.
  - The smart key is detected within 15 seconds after all doors are closed and locked, and is 1.5 m (60 in.) from the front door handles (for vehicles equipped with welcome lights).
  - A door is unlocked or open.
  - The smart key is inside the vehicle.

1. Setting

To activate Smart Trunk, enter User Settings mode and select Smart Trunk on the LCD display.

❈ For more details, refer to "LCD Display" in this section.

2. Detection and Warning

If you are within the detection area (50 ~ 100 cm (20 ~ 40 in.) behind the vehicle) with the smart key, the hazard warning lights will flash and the horn will sound for approximately 3 seconds to warn you that the smart key has been detected and the trunk will open.

✽ NOTICE

Do not approach the detection area if you do not want the trunk to open. If you accidentally enter the detection area and the hazard warning lights flash and the warning sound starts, leave the detection area with the smart key. The trunk will remain closed.

3. Automatic Opening

The hazard warning lights will flash, the horn will sound twice, and then the trunk lock will be unlocked.

Make sure to close the trunk before driving the vehicle.

Before opening or closing, make sure there are no people or objects around the trunk.

Before washing the vehicle, be sure to deactivate the Smart Trunk function.

Otherwise, the trunk may open unintentionally.

WARNING

Make sure items in the rear cargo area do not fall out when opening the trunk, as this may cause serious injury.

✽ NOTICE

Keep the key out of reach of children. Children may accidentally open the Smart Trunk while playing near the rear of the vehicle.
