Operating door locks from outside the vehicle (for smart key)

Carrying the smart key, you may lock and unlock the vehicle doors (and tailgate). Also, you may start the engine. Refer to the following for more details.

Locking

Pressing the button of the front driver side door handles with all doors closed and any door unlocked, locks all the doors. If all doors and engine bonnet are closed, the hazard warning lights will blink once to indicate that all doors are locked.

The button will only operate when the smart key is within 0.7–1 m (28–40 inches) from the driver side door handle. If you want to make sure that a door has locked or not, you should check pull the driver side door handle.

Even though you press the driver side door handle buttons, the doors will not lock and the chime will sound for 3 seconds if any of following occur:

  • The smart key is in the vehicle.

  • The ENGINE START/STOP button is in the ACC or ON position.

  • Any door except the tailgate is open.

Unlocking

Pressing the button of the front driver side door handles with all doors closed and locked, unlocks all the doors. The hazard warning lights blink twice to indicate that all doors are unlocked.

The button will only operate when the smart key is within 0.7–1 m (28–40 inches) from the front driver side door handle.

When the smart key is recognized in the area of 0.7–1 m (28–40 inches) from the front driver side door handle, other people can also open the door without possession of the smart key.

After pressing the button, the doors will lock automatically unless you open any door within 30 seconds.
