NOTE:
When the Child-Protection Door Lock system is
engaged, the door can be opened only by using
the outside door handle even though the inside
door lock is in the unlocked position.
After disengaging the Child-Protection Door
Lock system, always test the door from the
inside to make certain it is in the desired posi-
tion.
After engaging the Child-Protection Door Lock
system, always test the door from the inside to
make certain it is in the desired position.
For emergency exit with the system engaged,
rotate the door lock button until the lock indi-
cator is hidden (unlocked position), roll down
the window, and open the door with the outside
door handle.

Remember that the rear doors can only be
opened from the outside when the

check for effective engagement by trying to open a
door with the internal handle. Once the
