Child Protection Locks

To provide a safer environment for children riding in the rear seat, the rear doors have the "child-protection" door lock system.

The child protection locks are on the rear doors only. The lock, when engaged, will disable the inside door handle from opening the door. The lock is part of the latch/lock assembly. If there is a problem with the child protection locks, the entire latch must be replaced.

The lock is engaged by moving a lever that is located on the rearward inside edge of the door.

To use the system, open each rear door and move the control UP to engage. When the system on a door is engaged, that door can only be opened by using the outside door handle even if the inside door lock is in the unlocked position.
