Kia Optima: Rear Door Child Safety Lock
The child safety lock is provided to help prevent children from accidentally opening the rear doors from inside the vehicle.
- To lock a rear door so that it cannot be opened from the inside, push the child safety lock located on the rear edge of the door to the “LOCK” position (toward rear of vehicle) before closing the door.
- To open a rear door while the child safety lock is engaged, push the door lock knob to the “UNLOCK” position (red mark is visible) then pull the outside door handle.
WARNING - Rear Door Locks
If children accidentally open the rear doors while the vehicle is in motion, the child could fall out and be seriously injured. To prevent a child from opening the rear doors from the inside, the rear door safety locks should be used whenever children are in the vehicle.
