The child safety lock prevents opening the rear doors from inside, so, for example,

safety lock is switched on, the door can be opened only from the outside.
Switching the child safety lock on or off
● Unlock the vehicle and open the appropriate rear door.
● Flip out the key bit from the vehicle key.
● Use the key bit to move the slot to the desired position.
