Childproof Door Locks
The childproof door locks are
designed to prevent children seated
in the rear from accidentally opening
the rear doors. Each rear door has a
lock lever near the edge. With the
lever in the LOCK position (lever is
down), the door cannot be opened
from the inside regardless of the
position of the lock tab. To open the
door, pull the lock tab forward and
use the outside door handle.Auto Door Locking/Unlocking
On all models except Canadian DX and
DX-A
Your vehicle has customizable
settings for the doors and tailgate to
automatically lock and unlock. There
are default settings for each of these
features. You can turn off or change
the settings for these features as
described on the following pages.
When you customize the setting,
make sure your vehicle is parked
safely, the engine is off, and apply the
parking brake. Make all settings
before you start driving. Auto Door Locking
The auto door locking feature has
three possible settings:
The auto door locking is
deactivated all the time.
All doors and tailgate lock
whenever you move the shift lever
out of the Park (P) position (A/Tvehicles).
All doors and tailgate lock when
the vehicle speed reaches 9 mph
(15 km/h).
This is the default setting.
