How to control lock or unlock with keyless?

I have problems with using the keyless. Many times when I touch the door handle it tries to unlock the door when I just got out of the car and am trying to lock it.

Other times I come up to the car when it is locked and touch the door, and it tries to lock instead of unlocking.

Is there something I am missing here?

I hope I don't state the obvious, but I don't know how you touch the handle.
Here is how it is meant to work:
- to open keyless, you would have to have your fingers touching the inside of the handle (basically it comes natural when you try to open the door you would put your finger inside the handle to pull it outside).
- to close keyless, you would have to touch the outside of the handle

Thank you for stating the obvious! I was always trying to touch the sensor that you can see on the outside.
I think that will help.
