Rear Door Security Locks (Four-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 do the following: 1. Open one of the rear doors. 2. On the inside of the rear door will be a lock with this label. Slide the lever located next to the label upward to engage the lock. To disengage the lock(s), reverse the steps. 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. Lockout Prevention The lockout deterrent feature makes it difficult for you to lock your keys in the vehicle. If the driver's door is open while the keys are in the ignition, you will not be able to use your power door lock switch. This feature cannot guarantee that you'll never be locked out of your vehicle. If you don't leave the keys in the ignition, or if you use the manual door lock, you could still lock your keys inside your vehicle. Always remember to take your keys with you. To turn this feature on or off, see "Locks and Lighting Choices" in the Index. 3. Close the door. 4. Repeat the procedure on the other rear door lock. Leaving Your Vehicle If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your door and set the locks from inside. Then get out and close the door. 2-9
