  2. Insert the key (4) into the key hole and turn it to lock or unlock the door.
  3. After unlocking with the mechanical key, remove the key.
  4. Release the door handle.
  5. Press the front part of the door handle again to manually pop out the handle, then pull it out to open the door.
  6. Reinstall the removed cover.
    NOTE

    • Be aware that the mechanical key can only lock/unlock the driver’s door.

    • To lock all doors, operate the central lock switch inside the vehicle. Open the car door using the inner handle, then close the door and lock the driver’s door with a mechanical key.

    • Refer to Operating door locks from inside the vehicle to lock the doors from inside the vehicle.

    NOTE

    • Be careful not to lose or scratch the key cover when removing it.

    • If the key cover freezes and does not open, tap it lightly or indirectly warm it up, such as with the warmth of your hands.

    • Do not apply excessive force to the door or door handle. This may cause damage.

      If you close the door with excessive force or pull the door handle too quickly, the internal safety mechanism may activate and prevent the door from opening even when you pull the handle. If this happens, slowly pull the door handle again to open the door.

    NOTE

    • In cold and wet climates, door lock 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 to protect the circuit and prevent damage to system components.

    WARNING

    • Securely close your door before you begin driving. Failure to fully close your door may cause it to open during vehicle operation.

    • Keep your body out of the way of the closing door to prevent injuries.

    WARNING

    If any passengers must remain in the vehicle while it is very hot or cold outside, there is a risk of injuries or danger to life. Do not lock the vehicle from the outside when there are passengers in the vehicle.

    NOTE

    Do not unnecessarily open and close the door repeatedly or with excessive force. Such action can damage the vehicle door.

    NOTE

    Always place the ENGINE START/STOP button in the OFF position, engage the parking brake, close all windows, and lock all doors when leaving your vehicle unattended.

    • To lock a door without the key, push the central door lock button (1) when the ENGINE START/STOP button is in the OFF position and close the door.
