Kia Rio: Trunk (for 4 door) / Emergency trunk safety release

■ Type A

■ Type B
Your vehicle is equipped with an emergency trunk release lever located inside
the trunk. If someone is inadvertently locked in the trunk, moving the handle in
the direction of the arrow will release the trunk latch mechanism and open the trunk.
No one should be allowed to occupy the trunk at any time. The trunk is a very
dangerous location in the event of a crash.
Use the release lever for emergencies only. Use extreme caution, especially while
the vehicle is in motion.
To close, lower the trunk lid, then press down on it until it locks. To be sure
the trunk lid is securely fastened, always check by trying to pull it up again.
