Trunk lid (CrossCabriolet models)

WARNING

Do not drive with the trunk lid open.

This could allow dangerous exhaust gases to be drawn into the vehicle.

See “Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide)” in the “5. Starting and driving” section of this manual.
Closely supervise children when they are around cars to prevent them from playing and becoming locked in the trunk where they could be seriously injured. Keep the car locked, with the trunk closed, when not in use, and prevent children’s access to Intelligent Keys.
