Power Door Locks
On vehicles with power door locks, the switches are
located on the front doors.
" (Unlock): Press to unlock the doors.
Q (Lock): Remove the key from the ignition and press
to lock the doors.
Delayed Locking
This feature allows the driver to delay the actual locking
of the doors. When the driver power door lock switch
is pressed with the key removed from the ignition,
and the driver door open, a chime will sound three times
to signal that the delayed locking system is active.
When all doors have been closed, the doors will lock
automatically after several seconds. If any door is
opened before this, the timer will reset itself once all the
doors have been closed again.
Pressing the driver or passenger power door lock switch
again or the RKE transmitter button will override this
feature.
Personal Choice Programming
The delayed locking feature can be turned on or off,
using the Driver Information Center (DIC) to program
this feature. See “DELAY DOOR LOCK” under DIC
Vehicle Customization on page 3-70.
Programmable Automatic Door
Locks
Your vehicle is programmed so that, when the doors are
closed, the ignition is on, and the shift lever is moved
out of (P) Park, all the doors will lock. The doors
will unlock every time you stop the vehicle and move
the shift lever into (P) Park.
If someone needs to get out while your vehicle is not in
(P) Park, have the person use the manual lock knob
or power door lock switch. When the door is closed
again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual lock
knob or power door lock switch to lock the door.
If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC),
you can choose various lock and unlock settings.
For programming information, see DIC Vehicle
Customization on page 3-70.
