Doors and Locks Door Locks There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle. From the outside, use your key or the remote keyless entry transmitter, if equipped. See Remote Keyless Entry System Operation on page 2-4 for more information. If your vehicle has power door locks, open the driver's door by turning the key in the lock toward the rear of the vehicle. Turning the key back toward the center, then toward the rear again will unlock all of the doors. Using the key in the passenger's door will also unlock all of the doors. Lock a door by turning the key toward the front of the vehicle. If you have power door locks, all the doors will lock. {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. 2-6
