Automatic Door Locks All of the doors will lock automatically when you move your shift lever out of PARK (P). All doors will unlock automatically when the ignition is turned off while the shift lever is in PARK (P). If you prefer to have your doors unlocked automatically at any time, see "Locks and Lighting Choices" in the Index. If someone needs to get in or out of the vehicle after the doors have been automatically locked, place the shift lever into PARK (P). Unlock all doors by using the power door lock switch or unlock the door you want by using the inside lever. If you have programmed your Automatic Door Locks (see "Locks and Lighting Choices" in the Index) to unlock the doors when the shift lever is shifted into PARK (P), then the doors will be automatically unlocked for you. The doors will automatically lock when you move your shift lever out of PARK (P) with the ignition on. If you don't want the doors to unlock automatically when you turn the ignition off, see "Locks and Lighting Choices" in the Index. Rear Door Security Locks (4-Door Models) Four-door vehicles are equipped with rear door security locks that help prevent passengers from opening the rear doors of your vehicle from the inside. To use one of these locks: 1. Open one of the rear doors. 2. On the inside of the rear door will be a lock. Insert your master key into this lock and turn it counterclockwise. This will engage the safety lock. 3. Close the door. 4. Do the same thing to the other rear door lock. The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from inside the vehicle when this feature is in use. If you want to open a rear door when the security lock is on, unlock the door from the inside and then open the door from the outside. 2-6
