WARNING
• If you use the power locking
switch, remember that all the ve-
hicle doors will lock.
Locking doors from the inside can
help prevent inadvertent door
opening during an accident and
can also prevent unwanted entry
from the outside. Locked doors
can, however, delay assistance to
vehicle occupants and rescue
from the outside in an accident or
other emergency.
• Do not leave children inside the
vehicle unsupervised. If the lock-
ing knobs of all doors are de-
pressed, the vehicle will be locked.
In an emergency it would be im-
possible to open the doors from
the outside without the key.
