Rear Door Security Locks
Your vehicle has rear door security locks. These
prevent passengers from opening the rear doors
from the inside.
The rear door security
locks are located on
the inside edge of each
rear door. You must
open the rear doors to
access them.
To set the locks, do the following:
1. Insert the key into the security lock slot and turn
it so the slot is in the horizontal position.
2. Close the door.
When you want to open a rear door when the security
lock is on, do the following:
1. Unlock the door using the remote keyless entry
transmitter, if equipped, the power door lock
switch, or by lifting the rear door manual lock.
2. Open the door from the outside.
To cancel the rear door security lock, do the following:
1. Unlock the door and open it from the outside.
2. Insert the key into the security lock slot and turn
it so the slot is in the vertical position.
Lockout Protection
This feature prevents the driver’s door from being
locked using the power door locks, if the key is left in
the ignition and a door is open.
Pressing the power door lock switch will lock all the
doors and then unlock the driver’s door.
Pressing and holding the power door lock switch for
more than three seconds will override this feature.
If you remove the key from the ignition, or if you use
the manual door lock or the remote keyless entry
transmitter, you could still lock your key inside your
vehicle. Always remember to take your key with you.
