LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY
Insert the key into the keyhole and turn
it.
To lock: Turn the key clockwise.
To unlock: Turn the key counterclockwise.
To open the back door, pull the lock re-
lease lever.
Vehicles with the power door lock sys-
tem—
All the side doors and back door lock and
unlock simultaneously with the back door.
When all the side doors and back door
are unlocked simultaneously using a key,
the interior lights and ignition switch light
will come on and remain on for about 15
seconds before fading out. (For further
information, see “Interior lights” on page
100 and “Ignition switch light” on page
102 in Section 1- 5.)
Operating the power door lock switch or
wireless remote control transmitter simul-
taneously locks or unlocks the back door.
(See “—Locking and unlocking doors” on
page 16 and “Side doors” on page 19 in
this Section.)
When closing the back door, make sure
it is fully closed.
See “—Stowage precautions” on page 221
in Section 2 for precautions when loading
luggage.
CAUTION
Keep the back door closed while
driving. This not only keeps the
luggage from being thrown out but
also prevents exhaust gases from
entering the vehicle.
If the open back door hides the
stop, tail or rear turn signal lights
while you are parked, other road
users must be warned of the pres-
ence of your vehicle by a warning
triangle or other device.
