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. The chance
of being thrown out of the vehicle in a crash is increased if the doors are not locked.
So, all passengers should wear safety belts properly and the doors should be locked
whenever the vehicle is driven. • 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 the vehicle whenever leaving 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.
From the outside, use your key or remote keyless entry transmitter. From the inside, use the manual or power door locks.
To unlock the driver's side door from the outside with the key, insert the key and turn it toward the front of the vehicle. To lock the driver's side door from the outside with your key, insert the key and turn it toward the rear of the vehicle.
To lock the door from the inside, push the manual lock lever forward. To unlock the door, pull the lever rearward.
