In case of an emergency
OCN7H053021
In case of emergency such as when the
battery is discharged, the only way to lock
the door(s) is with the mechanical key
from the outside key hole.
Doors without an outside key hole can be
locked as follows:
1. Open the door.
2. Insert the key into the emergency door
lock hole and turn the key to the lock
position.
3. Close the door securely.
WARNING
• Always close and lock the doors while
the vehicle is moving. If the doors are
unlocked, the risk of being thrown from
the vehicle in a collision increases.
• Do not pull the inner door handle of the
driver's or passenger's door while the
vehicle is moving.
WARNING
Do not leave the elderly, children, or
animals unattended in your vehicle. An
enclosed vehicle can become extremely
hot and the elderly, unattended children
or animals who cannot escape the vehicle
may be seriously injured or killed.
WARNING
Always park your vehicle properly.
Depress the brake pedal, change the gear
to P (Park), apply the parking brake, move
the ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF
position, close all windows, lock all doors,
and always take the keys with you.
WARNING
Be careful when opening doors and
watch for vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles,
or pedestrians approaching the vehicle to
prevent serious injury or death.
Information
To exit the vehicle if the power door lock
does not function:
• Operate the door unlock feature
repeatedly (both electronic and
manual) while simultaneously pulling
on the door handle.
• Operate the other door locks and
handles.
• Lower the driver's front window and
use the mechanical key to unlock the
door from outside.
