Porsche 911 Carrera - Manual (Page 182)

Trunk Entrapment
Your vehicle is equipped with an internal trunk
release mechanism.
A person trapped in the luggage compartment
can release the lid from the inside using unlocking
handle A. The handle A is fluorescent and glows in
the dark.
Note
When loading the luggage compartment,
make sure that items of luggage or other
objects cannot become caught on handle A.
This could cause the luggage compartment to
open unintentionally.
Warning light
A warning message in the on-board computer
lights up when unlocking handle A is operated.
Stop the vehicle immediately when the warning
lights light up.
Check the luggage compartment.
Close the lid.
Function with vehicle stationary
If the luggage compartment lid is unlocked with
unlocking handle A, the lid can be opened from the
inside immediately.
Function with vehicle in motion
If the luggage compartment lid is unlocked with
unlocking handle A when a speed of 2 mph
(3 km/h) is exceeded, the warning message in
the on-board computer lights up. At the same time,
the lid is unlocked and the latch striker pops into
the catch-hook position.
Danger!
Risk of accident. If the warning message in
the on-board computer lights up when the
vehicle is in motion, the lid may impact in
front of the windshield and can tear off. You
can lose control of the vehicle, and serious
personal injury or death may result.
Stop the vehicle immediately when the warning
message lights up.
Check the luggage compartment.
Close the lid.
Note
The lid cannot be opened from the inside if the
battery is disconnected or empty.
Safety reasons require that you unscrew the
latch striker of the lid lock if you plan to put
the vehicle out of operation for an extended
period.
Please consult your authorized Porsche dealer.
They will advise you about the necessary meas-
ures.
