Doors and Locks
Door Locks
{
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
•
Passengers — especially children — can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is locked, the
handle will not open it. You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle
in a crash if the doors are not locked. So,
wear safety belts properly and lock the
doors whenever you drive.
•
Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A child
can be overcome by extreme heat and can
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.

•
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or
stop your vehicle. Locking your doors can
help prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
If your vehicle has a theft-deterrent system and it is
activated, unlock the doors only with the key or remote
keyless entry system. This will avoid setting off the
alarm. See Universal Theft-Deterrent on page 2-21 for
more information.
To unlock the door from the outside, use your door key
or remote keyless entry transmitter (if equipped).
Turning the door key toward the rear of the vehicle will
unlock the door. Turning the door key toward the
front of the vehicle will lock it.
