Lockout Protection Feature This feature prevents a driver who has left the key in the vehicle's ignition from locking the doors by using the power door locks while any door is open. The feature works by disabling the power door locks when a key is in the ignition and any door is open. You may override the lockout protection feature by holding the power door lock switch in the lock position for more than three seconds while the key is in the ignition and any door is open. Remember, this feature can't guarantee that you'll never be locked out of your vehicle. If you use the manual door lock or if you don't leave the key in the ignition, you could still lock your keys inside your vehicle. Always remember to take your keys with you. Remote Keyless Entry If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and unlock your doors or unlock your trunk from about 3 feet (1 m) up to 30 feet (9 m) away using the remote keyless entry lock control transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
