If the lock knob is down when the door is closed, the door will lock. Therefore, make sure the Key Fob is not inside the vehicle before closing the door.
If you press the door lock switch while the Key Fob is in the ignition switch and the driver’s door is open, the doors will not lock.
If a rear door is locked, it cannot be opened from inside the vehicle without first unlocking the door. The door may be unlocked manually by raising the lock knob.
