  2. FUNCTION


    1. The power door lock control system has the following functions:

      Function Outline Customized Body Electronics System
      Manual Lock and Unlock This function can lock or unlock all doors by operation of the manual door lock switch. Standard (Not Customizable)
      Key Confine Prevention*1 If the ignition key is inserted in the ignition key cylinder and the door lock operation is performed using the manual door lock switch while the driver door is open, all the doors will be unlocked. Standard (Not Customizable)
      Double Locking System*2
      • The double locking system also prevents the doors from being opened through the operation of the inside door knobs. Thus, the doors cannot be opened from either inside or outside of the vehicle. However, as an emergency unlocking maneuver, only the driver door can be unlocked with a key.

      • If the transmitter key*1 or mechanical key*3 is used to lock the door, double-lock will be output if the ignition switch is off, and single-lock will be output if the ignition switch is not off.

        Note

        Never activate the double locking system when there are people in the vehicle because the doors cannot be opened from the inside of the vehicle. If the doors have been locked by accident, press the "unlock" button of the transmitter*1 or key*3.
