✽ NOTICE

• • In cold and wet climates, door locks and door mechanisms may not work properly due to freezing conditions.
• • If the door is locked/unlocked multiple times in rapid succession with either the vehicle key or door lock switch, the system may stop operating temporarily in order to protect the circuit and prevent damage to system components.

Doors without the outside key hole, you can lock the door as follows:

1. Open the door.
2. Lock doors by pushing each lock button.
3. Close the door securely.

Once the tailgate is closed when the power door lock switch does not operate electrically, you will not be able to open the tailgate.

✽ NOTICE

Always remove the ignition key, engage the parking brake, close all windows and lock all doors when leaving your vehicle unattended.
