without the key. !
Locking and unlocking from the inside
Keep all doors locked when you drive, especial-
ly when small children are in your vehicle.
Along with the proper use of seatbelts and child
restraints, locking the doors reduces the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in an
accident.
It also helps prevent passengers from falling
out if a door is accidentally opened, and intrud-
ers from unexpectedly opening doors and en-
tering your vehicle. To lock the door from the inside, rotate the lock lever rearward.

Keys and doors
Child safety locks
Always use the child safety lock whenever a
child rides in the rear seat. Serious injury could
result if a child accidentally opened the door
and fell out.
Each rear door has a child safety lock that prevents
the doors from being opened even if the inside door
handle is pulled. When the child safety lock lever is in the lock position,
the door cannot be opened from inside regardless of
the position of the inner door handle lock lever. The
door can only be opened from the outside.

When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position,
the SRS airbag system warning light will come on for
about seven seconds and go out. This shows the SRS
frontal airbag and SRS side airbag and SRS curtain
airbag and seatbelt pretensioners are in normal oper-
ation. If this light comes on while driving or remains illuminat-
ed even after a period of about 7 seconds from when
the ignition has been turned on, it may indicate that the
SRS frontal airbag system or SRS side airbag system
(if equipped) or SRS curtain airbag or seatbelt preten-
sioner system is not working properly. Contact your
