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.
From the outside, use your key or the remote keyless
entry transmitter.
To unlock the driver’s door from the outside with the
key, insert the key and turn it toward the front of
the vehicle. To lock the driver’s door from the outside
with your key, insert the key and turn it toward the rear
of the vehicle.
If your vehicle has power door locks, you may be able
to unlock all of the doors and the liftgate when you insert
the key, turn it toward the front of the vehicle, and
hold it there for one second. You may be able to lock all
of the doors when you insert the key and turn it toward
the rear of the vehicle.

is open will not lock. Normally the delayed locking
feature will be used to lock the sliding door after it has
been closed.
The sliding door delayed locking feature will lock your
sliding door(s) in situations where the delayed
locking feature does not apply or was overridden or
programmed to be off. See “Delayed Locking” earlier in
this section. Shortly after the last sliding door is
closed, all the doors will lock.
