Chevrolet Silverado: Keys and Locks / Safety Locks
The rear door safety locks prevent passengers from opening the rear doors from
inside the vehicle.

The safety lock is on the inside edge of the rear doors. To use the safety lock:
- Move the lever down to the lock position.
- Close the door.
- Do the same for the other rear door.
To open a rear door when the safety lock is on:
- Unlock the door by activating the inside handle, by pressing the power door
unlock switch, or by using the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
- Open the door from the outside.
When the safety lock is enabled, adults and older children will not be able to
open the rear door from the inside. Cancel the safety locks to enable the doors
to open from the inside.
To cancel the safety lock:
- Unlock the door and open it from the outside.
- Move the lever up to unlock. Do the same for the other door.
If equipped, the ignition is on or in ACC/ACCESSORY and the power door lock switch
is pressed with the driver door open, all the doors will lock and only the driver
door will unlock...
