Power Door Locks; Delayed Locking; Programmable Automatic Door Locks - Chevrolet 2008 Equinox Owner's Manual

There are a couple of ways to manually lock or unlock
your vehicle.
From the outside, use the key in the driver's door.
From the inside, use the lock control on the door.

Power Door Locks

The power door lock switches are located on the
driver's and front passenger's doors.
K

symbol.
Q

lock symbol to lock all of the doors.

Delayed Locking

A chime will sound three times to indicate a door or
liftgate is open when you try to lock the doors with
the power door lock switch. The doors will not lock,
and the theft-deterrent system will not arm until all
the doors are closed and ten seconds have passed.
The delayed locking feature can be programmed
through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
