3-4 Pre-driving checks and adjustments
WARNING
. Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping
to prevent persons from being
thrown from the vehicle. This also
helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
. Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.
LOCKING WITH MECHANICAL KEY
The power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously using the
mechanical key.
. Turning the driver’s door key cylinder to-
wards the front of the vehicle
*
1 will lock all
doors and the rear hatch.
. Turning the driver’s door key cylinder once
towards the rear of the vehicle
*
2 will unlock
the driver’s door. After returning the key to
the neutral position, turning it towards the
rear again within 5 seconds will unlock all
doors and the rear hatch.
. You can switch the lock system to the mode
that allows you to open all the doors when
the key is turned once. (See the LEAF
Navigation System Owner’s Manual.)
