CHILD SECURITY DOOR LOCKS

Child security locking helps prevent rear
doors from being accidentally opened by
children in the car.
Child security door locks are provided with
both rear doors.
When the child-safe lever is in "LOCK" po-
sition, the door can not be opened from the
inside.
Moreover, the inside door catch will be
fixed at the locking position and can not be
pulled.
Rear doors locked with the child safe
mechanism can still be opened from the
outside if the door button is in the unlock
position.
WARNING
Children in rear seats can open rear
doors.
• Move child security door lock
latch to lock position.
CAUTION
Inside door handle could be dam-
aged.
• Do not pull inside door handle
when using child security door
locks.
