    When the driver's side door is unlocked once using the mechanical key, only the driver's side door unlocks. If this operation is repeated within 3 seconds, all the other doors also unlock.

  4. Ignition Key Reminder Operation 

    Under condition that the ignition key remains inserted in the ignition key cylinder and driver's side door is open, locking operation with door knob of driver's door is not effective but automatically unlocks the door. When the door is locked with the manual door lock SW of driver's door or door key SW of driver's door, the door locks once but right after that, the door unlocks automatically.
