Door Locks

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.

There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle. From the outside, use the remote keyless entry transmitter or the key.
