Unlocking operation
Grasp the outside door handle (sensors
are located on the underside of the
door handles). Only the driver's door
unlocks when the driver's door handle
is grasped. All the doors unlock when

door handle is grasped. At this time
two beeps will be heard and the turn

The doors may not unlock if the handle
is grasped too quickly. Be sure to confirm
that the doors are unlocked before pulling
the door handle. If the doors do not open
when the handle is pulled, return the han-
dle to its original position.
