Sliding Door Security Lock
Your vehicle is equipped with a sliding door security
lock that helps prevent young children or other
passengers from opening the sliding door by using
the inside door handle.
The security lock lever is located on the inside of the
sliding door, on the front edge of the door. To access
the lever, open the sliding door. Use the security lock
label on the edge of the door as a guide. This lock is
on both doors if your vehicle is equipped with dual
sliding doors.
To use the security lock,
move the security lock lever
all the way up and close the
door from the outside.
If your vehicle is equipped with a power sliding door,
you can override the security lock by pressing either
power door switch when the power sliding door is
turned off. When the power sliding door is turned on,
the power sliding door cannot be opened from the inside
when the sliding door security lock is in use.
If you want to open the sliding door when the security
lock is on, unlock the sliding door and open the door
from the outside.
You should let adults and older children know how the
security lock works, and how to cancel the lock. If you
don’t, adults or older children who ride in the rear won’t
be able to open the sliding door from the inside when
the security lock feature is in use.
