Power Door Locks
A power door lock switch
is located on both front
doors next to the door
handle.
Press the top of the switch to unlock all doors or press
the bottom of the switch to lock all doors.
If the vehicle has the optional content theft-deterrent
system and it is armed, the power door lock switches will
be disabled. You must use the RKE transmitter or the
key to unlock the doors when the system is armed. See
Content Theft-Deterrent on page 2-16.
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 3-57.
Automatic Door Lock
The doors will automatically lock when the shift lever is
moved out of P (Park). The automatic door locking
feature cannot be disabled.
