Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers -- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won’t open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren’t locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better off whenever you drive your vehicle.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
Your vehicle may be equipped with the keyless entry
system. For more information, see “Keyless Entry
System” in the Index.
To unlock your door from the outside, use your key.
To lock the front doors and
sliding side door from the
inside, slide the manual lock
levers down. To unlock the
front doors and the sliding
side door from the inside,
slide the manual lock levers
up. When the red mark on
the lock lever is visible, the
door is unlocked.
