Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, your
vehicle is programmed so that when the doors
are closed, the ignition is on and the shift lever is
moved out of PARK (P), all the doors will lock. The
doors will unlock every time you stop the vehicle and
move the shift lever back into PARK (P).
If your vehicle has a manual transmission, the vehicle is
programmed so that the doors will lock automatically
after the vehicle speed reaches 5 mph (8 km). The doors
will not automatically unlock until the ignition is turned
off and the key is removed from the ignition switch.
If someone needs to exit the vehicle once the doors are
locked, have that person use the manual lever or
power door lock switch. When the door is closed again,
it will not lock automatically. Use the manual lever or
the power door lock switch to lock the door.
The power door locks can be programmed through
prompts displayed on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). These prompts allow you to choose
various lock and unlock settings. For more information
on programming, seeDIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-88.
Rear Door Security Locks
Your vehicle is equipped with rear door security locks
that prevent passengers from opening the rear doors on
your vehicle from the inside.
The rear door security
locks are located on the
inside edge of each
rear door. You must
open the rear doors to
access them.
To use these locks, do the following:
1. Insert your key into the slot next to the rear door
security lock label and turn it to engage the lock.
2. Close the door.
3. Repeat the steps for the other rear door.
The rear doors on your vehicle cannot be opened from
the inside when this feature is in use.

Trunk
{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can not see or
smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness and
even death. If you must drive with the trunk lid
open or if electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the trunk lid:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed and select the
control setting that will force outside air
into your vehicle. See Climate Control
System in the Index.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
SeeEngine Exhaust on page 2-39.
Trunk Lock Release
The remote trunk release
button is located on the
lower portion of the
driver’s door.
To use this feature, an automatic transmission must be
in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) and your manual
transmission must be in NEUTRAL with the parking
brake set.
Press the button to open the trunk. You can also press
the button with the trunk symbol on the remote
keyless entry transmitter to open the trunk.
If your vehicle is ever without power, you can still
access the trunk area. Use one of the following
procedures to open the trunk manually.
If your vehicle is equipped with the rear seat
pass-through door, do the following:
1. Fold the rear armrest down and open the
pass-through door. See “Rear-Seat Pass Through”
following for more information.

Ignition Positions
With the key in the ignition switch, you can turn the key
to four different positions.
Notice:If your key seems stuck in OFF and you
can’t turn it, be sure you are using the correct key;
if so, is it all the way in? If it is, then turn the
steering wheel left and right while you turn the key
hard. Turn the key only with your hand. Using a
tool to force it could break the key or the ignition
switch. If none of these works, then your vehicle
needs service.A (OFF):This is the only position in which you can
insert or remove the key. This position locks the
ignition, steering wheel and transmission. It’s a
theft-deterrent feature.
B (ACCESSORY):This position allows you to use
things like the radio and the windshield wipers when the
engine is off. This position will allow you to turn off
the engine, but still turn the steering wheel.
C (ON):This position is for driving. If your vehicle has
an automatic transmission and you turn off the
engine, the transmission will lock. If you need to shift
the transmission out of PARK (P), the ignition key has to
be in ON.
D (START):This position starts the engine.

vehicle unless the

Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
The following accessories on your vehicle may be used
for up to 10 minutes after the ignition key is turned
from ON to OFF:
Radio
Power Windows
Audio Steering Wheel Controls (if programmed)
Sunroof (Option)
Power to these accessories stops after 10 minutes or if
a door is opened. If you want power for another
10 minutes, close all the doors and turn the ignition key
to ON and then back to OFF.
Starting Your Engine
Automatic Transmission
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
Your engine will not start in any other position — that is
a safety feature. To restart when you are already
moving, use NEUTRAL (N) only.
Notice:Do not try to shift to PARK (P) if your
vehicle is moving. If you do, you could damage the
transmission. Shift to PARK (P) only when your
vehicle is stopped.
