If both front doors are closed, the vehicle can be locked by any method,
regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.

Smart locks for intelligent access keys (IA key) (if equipped)

This feature is intended to prevent you from unintentionally locking your
IA key inside your vehicle.

If your vehicle’s perimeter alarm is in the armed state, the smart locks
feature will not allow you to lock your IA key inside the vehicle. When
the alarm is armed, if the IA key is detected in the vehicle, the vehicle
will automatically unlock. The exterior lights will flash and the horn will
chirp twice to indicate the IA key is inside. If your IA key is detected in
the trunk (if equipped), the trunk lid will reopen though there will be no
feedback from the horn or lights.

Central locking/unlocking

To centrally lock/unlock all doors (from the driver’s side only) using the
key from the outside when they are closed:
• Turn the key counterclockwise to lock all doors. The turn signal lamps

will flash twice.

• Turn the key clockwise once to unlock the driver’s door or twice to

unlock all doors. The turn signal lamps will flash once.

If the central locking function fails
to operate, the doors can be
individually locked using the key in
the position shown.

On the driver’s side, turn the key
clockwise to lock, and on the
passenger’s side turn the key
counterclockwise to lock.

lock until the doors are closed. This feature only works when smart locks
are not active. See Smart locks in this section for more information
