Lockout Protection
If the power door lock switch is
pressed when the key is in the
ignition and a door is open, all the
doors will lock and only the driver
door will unlock. If the doors are
closed, they can be locked by using
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter. Be sure to remove the
key from the ignition when locking
the vehicle.
This feature can be overridden by
pressing the lock button on the RKE
transmitter or by pressing the power
lock switch a second time.
On vehicles with a Keyless Access
System, the system can be
programmed to alert you when
all the doors are closed and a
transmitter has been left inside
of the vehicle. See
