with the power door locking
switch (Australia models)
WARNING
Never lock the doors using the
remote keyless entry system while
passengers are inside the vehicle.
Doing so activates the function that
disables unlocking with the power
door locking switch and so people
in the vehicle would not be able to
open the doors from the inside. This
could result in serious injury or
death.
Australia models are fitted with an anti-
theft function that disables door unlocking
with the power door locking switch. This
function is activated in the following
situations, disabling the doors from being
unlocked using the power door locking
switch.
. The doors are locked using the remote
keyless entry system. Refer to Locking
and unlocking doors F2-21.
. The automatic locking function is in
operation. Refer to Automatic locking
(except models with double locking sys-
tem) F2-22.
