If your vehicle has
power door locks,
push the power door
lock switch to lock or
unlock all the doors at
once.
The Power Door Lock switch will not lock or unlock the rear hatch and split
panel doors. You must use the
HATCH REL switch. See “Hatch Release
Switch” in the Index.
Every vehicle with power door locks has a pulse lock system. A pulse lock
system works like this:
If the sliding door is open and you push the power door lock switch, the
sliding door will not lock immediately. After you close the door, the system
comes on and, in about five seconds, locks the sliding door.
All models have overriding door locks. When a door is locked, the door
handle will not work the latch. This will help stop a door from being
accidentally opened. However, power door locks do not affect the operation
of the hatch.
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.
Rear Hatch and Split-Panel Doors
If you have this option, your vehicle must be in either “P” (Park) or
“N’ (Neutral) to release the hatch and unlock the split-panel doors. If your
battery is dead, the hatch and doors will not open, even from the outside
with a key.
To release the hatch and unlock the doors from the inside of the vehicle,
press
the HATCH REL switch on the instrument panel just left of the
steering column.

they do, you could get a shock. The vehicles could be damaged, too.
Before you connect the cables, here are some basic things you should
know. Positive
(+) will go to positive (+) and negative (-) will go to
negative
(-) or a metal engine part. Don’t connect (+) to (-) or you’ll
get a short that would damage the battery and maybe other parts, too.
6. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+) terminal of the
vehicle with the dead battery. Use a remote positive
(+) terminal if the
vehicle has
one.
Dead Battery (+)
7. Don’t let the other end touch metal. Connect it to the positive (+)
terminal of the good battery. Use a remote positive (+) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
8. Now connect the black negative (-) cable to the good battery’s
negative
(-) terminal.
Don’t let the other end touch anything until the next step. The other end
of the negative cable doesn’t go to the dead battery. It goes to a heavy
unpainted metal part
of the vehicle with the dead battery.

Attach the cable at least 18 inches (45 cm) away from the dead battery,
but
not near engine parts that move. The electrical connection is just as
good there, but the chance of sparks getting back to the battery is much
less.
Now start the vehicle with the good bat ’y and run the engine for a
while.
Try to start the vehicle with
the dead battery. If it won’t start after a few
tries, it probably needs service.
Remove the cables
in reverse order to prevent electrical shorting. Take
care that
they don’t touch each other or any other metal.
