Delayed Locking
With this feature, you can delay the actual locking
of the doors.
When the power door lock switch or the lock
button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter is pressed when the key is not in the
ignition and the driver’s door is opened, a
chime will sound three times indicating that
delayed locking is active.
When all the doors are closed, the doors will lock
automatically after five seconds. If a door is
reopened before five seconds have elapsed, the
five second timer will reset itself once all the doors
are closed again.
You can press the door lock switch or the lock
button on the RKE transmitter again to override
this feature and lock the doors immediately.
You can turn this feature off using the Driver
Information Center (DIC). When delayed locking is
off, the doors will lock immediately when you
press the power door lock switch or the lock button
on the RKE transmitter. See DIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 239 for more information.
Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, the
vehicle is programmed so that the doors will
lock automatically when all doors are closed, the
ignition is on, and the shift lever is moved out
of PARK (P). The doors will automatically unlock
when you stop the vehicle and move the shift lever
back into PARK (P).
If your vehicle has a manual transmission, the
vehicle is programmed so that the doors will lock
automatically after the vehicle speed reaches
5 mph (8 km). The doors will automatically unlock
when the ignition is turned off and the key is
removed from the ignition.
If someone needs to exit the vehicle once the doors
are locked, have that person use the manual lever
or power door lock switch. When the door is closed
again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual
lever or the power door lock switch to lock the door.
The power door locks can be programmed
through prompts displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). These prompts allow
you to choose various lock and unlock settings.
For more information on programming, see
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 239.
