Rear Door Security Locks

Your vehicle may have
rear door security locks
that prevent passengers
from opening the rear
doors of your vehicle from
the inside.

To use one of these locks, do the following:

1. Open the rear door you want to lock.
2. Move the lever located on the inside door edge, all

the way to the lock symbol.

3. Close the door.
4. Do the same thing to the other rear door lock.

The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from
the inside when this feature is in use.

To open a rear door when the security lock is on, do
the following:

1. Unlock the door.
2. Open the door from the outside.

If you do not cancel the security lock feature, adults or
older children who ride in the rear seat will not be
able to open the rear door from the inside. You should
let adults and older children know how these security
locks work, and how to cancel the locks.

To cancel the rear door lock, do the following:

1. Unlock and open the door from the outside.

2. Move the lever all the way to the unlock symbol.

3. Do the same for the other rear door.

The rear door locks will now work normally.

Lockout Protection

The power door locks will not work if the key is left in
the ignition and the driver’s door is open. You can
override this feature by holding the power door lock
switch on the driver’s door for more than three seconds.

Leaving Your Vehicle

If you are leaving the vehicle, take your key, open your
door and set the locks from inside or with the remote
keyless entry transmitter. Then get out and close
the door.
