passenger's side front door
must be opened first. Then,
use the handle located on
the inside of the rear access
door to open it.Door Locks
CAUTION:

Passengers -- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is

door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren't locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better off whenever you drive your vehicle.
