of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to

selector.

Power Door Locks
A power door lock switch is located on each of the front
door trim panels. Use this switch to lock or unlock the
doors, liftgate and fuel door.
If you push the power door lock switch while the ignition
is in the ON/RUN position, and any door or the liftgate is
open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents you
from accidentally locking the key fob in the vehicle. Placing
the ignition in the OFF position or closing the doors and
liftgate will allow the locks to operate. If the driver door is
open, and the ignition is in the RUN position, a chime will
sound as a reminder to remove the key.

door lock button until the lock indicator is hidden
(unlocked position), roll down the window, and open
the door with the outside door handle.
