• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave the

If you push the power door lock switch while the ignition
is in the ACC or ON/RUN position, and any front door is
open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents you
from accidentally locking the key fob in the vehicle. Placing
the ignition in the OFF position or closing the door will
allow the locks to operate. If the driver door is open, and
the ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position, a chime
will sound as a reminder to remove the key fob.
