Information Center (EVIC), refer to “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) — If Equipped/Personal
Settings (Customer-Programmable Features)” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for further infor-
mation.

• For vehicles not equipped with the EVIC, perform the

following procedure:

1. Close all doors and place the key in the ignition
switch.

2. Within 15 seconds, cycle the ignition switch between
LOCK and ON/RUN and then back to LOCK four times
ending up in the LOCK position (do not start the engine).

3. Within 30 seconds, press the power door LOCK switch
to lock the doors.

4. A single chime will indicate the completion of the
programming.

5. Repeat these steps if you want to return this feature to
its previous setting.

NOTE:

• If you do not hear the chime it means that the system

did not enter the programming mode and you will
need to repeat the procedure.

• Use the Automatic Door Locks feature in accordance

with local laws.
