Rear Door Security Locks
(Four-Door Models)
Four
-
door vehicles are equipped with rear door security
locks that help prevent passengers from opening the rear
doors of your vehicle from the inside. To use one of
these locks do the following:
1. Open one of the rear doors.
2. On the inside of the
rear door will be a lock
with this label. Slide the
lever located next to
the label upward to
engage the lock.
3. Close the door.
4. Repeat the procedure on the other rear door lock.
To disengage the lock(s), reverse the steps.
The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from
inside the vehicle when this feature is in use. If you want
to open a rear door when the security lock is on, unlock
the door from the inside and then open the door from
the outside.
Lockout Prevention
The lockout deterrent feature makes it difficult for you
to lock your keys in the vehicle. If the driver’s door is
open while the keys are in the ignition, you will not be
able to use your power door lock switch.
This feature cannot guarantee that you’ll never be
locked out of your vehicle. If you don’t leave the keys in
the ignition, or if you use the manual door lock, you
could still lock your keys inside your vehicle. Always
remember to take your keys with you.
To turn this feature on or off, see “Locks and Lighting
Choices” in the Index.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and set the locks from inside. Then get out and
close the door.
