To open the driver’s side door, first open the passenger’s
side door. Then, pull the handle on the left door edge out
and pull the door open.
The rear doors have a check assembly to keep them
from fully opening during normal use.
To
fully open either rear door, you must release the
check strap. To release the check strap just:
I.
Open the door partway until
the
white mark on the
check strap is fully outside the door edge. If the end
of
the strap catches the pin on the door, the door is
open too far.
2.
Then, hold the strap at
the white mark, pull the
strap toward you and
open the door all
the way.
To re-engage the door check strap, just close the door
and the strap will catch the pin.
To close the doors, close the driver’s side door first.
After securely closing the door, close the passenger’s
side door. Make sure both doors are latched securely.
To lock the rear doors from outside the vehicle, put your
key in the lock and turn it to the right.
If
you have power
door locks, you can lock the side doors as well
as
the
rear doors from inside the vehicle. For more
information, see “Power Door Locks” in this section.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially
in
some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal. However, there are ways you can help.
Key
in
the
Ignition
If
you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
--
so
don’t do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver’s door,
you’ll hear a tone reminding you to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you. Always do this.
Your steering wheel will be locked, and
so
will your
ignition. If you have an automatic transmission, taking
your key out also locks your transmission. And
remember to lock the doors.
