Child-Protector Rear Door
locks
The child safety lock is provided to
help prevent children seated in the
rear from accidentally opening the
rear doors. The rear door safety locks
should be used whenever children
are in the vehicle.
The child safety lock is located on
the edge of each rear door. When the
child safety lock is in the lock posi-
tion, the rear door will not open if the
inner door handle is pulled.
To lock the child safety lock, insert a
screwdriver (1) into the hole and turn
it to the lock position.To allow a rear door to be opened
from inside the vehicle, unlock the
child safety lock.Safe Exit Assist (SEA) System
(If equipped)
Once the system decides it is dan-
gerous for a passenger to open a car
door by sensing the approaching of a
car from behind when the person is
opening the door, the warning mes-
sage "Watch for traffic" appears and
the alarming sound will continue for
five seconds.
If a car approaching from behind is
too fast or a door is opened sudden-
ly, the alarm system may not set off
in time, which increases the danger
of an accident. Therefore, make sure
nothing is coming in the way before
you open the door.
This function works for ten minutes
even after the ignition is turned off.
The function will be released as soon
as the car doors are locked with the
smart key.
The alarming sound will continue
while the Safe Exit Assist (SEA) sys-
tem is in activation.
The Safe Exit Assist (SEA) system is
activated when you select 'Driver
Assistance
→Blind-Spot Safety →
Safe Exit Assistance (SEA)' from the
User Settings mode in the cluster
LCD display.
If children accidently open the
rear doors while the vehicle is
in motion, they could fall out of
the vehicle. The rear door safety
locks should always be used
whenever children are in the
vehicle.

Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System can replace up to three
hand-held radio-frequency (RF)
transmitters with a single built-in
device. This innovative feature will
learn the radio frequency codes of
most current transmitters to operate
devices such as gate operators,
garage door openers, entry door
locks, security systems, even home
lighting. Both standard and rolling
code-equipped transmitters can be
programmed by following the out-
lined procedures.
Additional HomeLink
®information
can be found at: www.homelink.com
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.

®programming. It is
also suggested that upon the sale of
the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink

strate a wind buffeting or pulsation
noise. This noise is normal and can
be reduced or eliminated by taking
the following actions. If the noise
occurs with one or both of the rear
windows down, partially lower both
