Locking with inside lock button
Push in the lock button to lock and unlock the door.
When locked, the door cannot be opened with either the
outside or inside door handle.
Closing the door with the lock button pushed in will also lock
the door. Be careful not to lock your keys in the vehicle. The
door will not lock if the key is left in the ignition switch.

Along with the proper use of seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers from being thrown out
from the vehicle during an accident. It also helps prevent the
doors from being opened unintentionally.
