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 a power door lock system—
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 will come on and remain
on for about 15 seconds before fading
out. (For further information, see “Interior
lights” on page 84 in Section 1–4.)
Operating the power door lock switch or
wireless remote control transmitter simul-
taneously locks or unlocks the back door.
(See “Side doors” on page 12 in this sec-
tion.)
When closing the back door, make sure
it is fully closed.
See “Luggage stowage precautions” on
page 164 in Section 2 for precautions to
observe in 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.
