Lockout Protection
This feature helps to prevent a driver from locking the
keys inside of the vehicle by disabling the power
door locks when the following occurs:
•
A door is opened,
•
the key is left in the ignition, and
•
a power door lock is pressed.
You may override the lockout protection feature by
holding the power door lock switch in the lock position
for more than three seconds while the key is in the
ignition and any door is open.
Remember, this feature can't guarantee that you'll never
be locked out of your vehicle. If you use the manual
door lock or if you leave the key in your vehicle, but not
in the ignition you could still be locked out of your
vehicle. Always remember to take your keys with you.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and set the locks from inside. Then get out and
close the door. See "Delayed Locking" in this section for
more information.
