Door Locks - GMC 1998 Savana Van Owner's Manual

Door Locks
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers
--
especially children
--
can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won't open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
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.
There are several
ways to
lock and unlock
your
vehicle.
If your vehicle is equipped with remote keyless entry,
see "Keyless Entry System" later in this section for
more information.
From the outside,
use
your key.
To lock the door from the
inside, slide the lever on
your door down.
To unlock the door, slide
the lever up.
