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.
To lock or unlock the driver’s door, use the key from the
outside or the door lock from the inside.
Power Door Locks
T: The power door lock switches are located on the
driver’s door.
To unlock the doors, press the right side of the
switch.
Remove the ignition key and press the left side of
the switch to lock all of the doors.
Delayed Locking
A chime will sound to indicate a door or liftgate is open
when you try to lock the doors with the power door lock
switch. The doors will not lock, and the theft-deterrent
system will not arm until all the doors are closed and
five seconds have passed.
