Where is the child lock on the Accord door?
1 Answers
Honda Accord's child lock is located on the side of the rear door. The child lock can be activated without using a key—simply move the switch to the lock position to enable the child lock. Once the door is closed, rear passengers cannot open the door from the inside and must pull the door handle from the outside to open it. To deactivate the child lock, move the switch to the unlock position. Additional details are as follows: 1. The child lock is designed to prevent accidental door opening by children in the rear seat during driving, which could lead to falls and accidents. It is recommended that children be accompanied by an adult when traveling in the car. Rear-seated children should use a child safety seat, which not only prevents them from playing and causing disturbances but also provides better protection. 2. When the child lock is activated, especially if rear passengers fall asleep and the door is locked without waking them, occupants may become trapped inside in an emergency. In extreme cold or hot weather, this could lead to injury or illness, with more severe consequences for children. Therefore, the child safety lock should be turned off when not in use to avoid such situations.
