Rear Door Security Locks
Your vehicle has rear door security locks to prevent
passengers from opening the rear doors from the inside.
Open the rear doors to
access the security locks
on the inside edge of
each door.
To set the locks, insert a key into the slot and turn it to
the horizontal position. The door can only be opened
from the outside with the door unlocked. To return
the door to normal operation, turn the slot to 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.
Press the power door lock switch to lock all the doors
and then unlock the driver’s door.
Press and hold the power door lock switch for more
than three seconds to override this feature.
If the key is removed from the ignition, or if the
manual door lock or the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter is used, the key could still be locked
inside the vehicle. Always remember to take the key
with you.
