Rear Door Security Locks Your vehicle has rear door security locks. These prevent passengers from opening the rear doors 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. When you want to open a rear door when the security lock is on, do the following: 1. Unlock the door using the remote keyless entry transmitter, if equipped, the power door lock switch, or by lifting the rear door manual lock. 2. Open the door from the outside. To cancel the rear door security lock, do the following: 1. Unlock the door and open it from the outside. 2. Insert the key into the security lock slot and turn it so the slot is in the vertical position. Lockout Protection This feature prevents the driver's door from being locked using the power door locks, if the key is left in the ignition and a door is open. To set the locks, do the following: 1. Insert the key into the security lock slot and turn it so the slot is in the horizontal position. 2. Close the door. Pressing the power door lock switch will lock all the doors and then unlock the driver's door. Pressing and holding the power door lock switch for more than three seconds will override this feature. If you remove the key from the ignition, or if you use the manual door lock or the remote keyless entry transmitter, you could still lock your key inside your vehicle. Always remember to take your key with you. 2-14
