Rear Door Security Locks
Your vehicle is equipped
with 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. Then open the door from the outside.
If you don’t cancel the security lock feature, adults or
older children who ride in the rear seat won’t 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 the keys, open the
door and set the locks from the inside, then get out and
close the door.
