With central door lock switch
The central door locking switch is
located on the front door arm rest. It
is operated by depressing the door
lock switch. If any door is open when
the switch is depressed, the door will
remain locked when closed.
• When pushing down on the front
portion (
➀
) of the switch, all vehi-
cle doors will lock.
• When pushing down on the rear
portion ( ➁ ) of the switch, all vehicle
doors will unlock.
• However, if the key is in the ignition
switch and any front door is open,
the doors will not lock when the
front portion of central door lock
switch is pressed.
CAUTION - Doors
• The doors should always be
fully closed and locked while
the vehicle is in motion to pre-
vent accidental opening of the
door. Locked doors will also
discourage potential intruders
when the vehicle stops or
slows.
• Be careful when opening
doors and watch for vehicles,
motorcycles,
bicycles or
pedestrians approaching the
vehicle in the path of the door.
Opening a door when some-
thing is approaching can
cause damage or injury.
