Do not leave a child unattended in the vehicle. Window lockout and the child-door lock are separate functions.
THE QUICK ANSWER
Each rear door has a child safety lock that disables opening from inside. Move its switch to LOCK and test the result. The outside handle can still open the door when normal locking allows it, so this is separate from locking the vehicle.
