Doors and Locks Manual Door Locks There are a couple of ways to lock and unlock your vehicle manually. From inside the vehicle, use the manual door lock knob. Pull up on the knob to unlock the door. Push down on the knob to lock the door. {CAUTION: Unlocked doors can be dangerous. • Passengers - especially children - can easily open the doors and fall out of a moving vehicle. When a door is locked, the handle will not open it. You increase the chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a crash if the doors are not locked. So, wear safety belts properly and lock the doors whenever you drive. • Young children who get into unlocked vehicles may be unable to get out. A child can be overcome by extreme heat and can suffer permanent injuries or even death from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle whenever you leave it. • Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked door when you slow down or stop your vehicle. Locking your doors can help prevent this from happening. To lock either door from the outside, turn the key toward the rear of the vehicle. To unlock the door, turn the key toward the front of the vehicle. Power Door Locks If your vehicle has a remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter, you can use it to lock and unlock the doors from inside or outside the vehicle. See Remote Keyless Entry System Operation on page 2-4 for more information. 2-7
