Automatic Door Lock

Your vehicle is programmed so that, when the doors are
closed, the ignition is on and the shift lever is moved
out of PARK (P) for automatic transmissions, or
when vehicle speed becomes faster than 8 mph
(13 km/h) for manual transmissions, both doors will lock.
If someone needs to get out while the vehicle is
running or not in PARK (P), have the person use the
power door unlock switch. When the door is closed
again, the doors will lock either when your foot is
removed from the brake or the vehicle speed becomes
faster than 8 mph (13 km/h).

Programmable Automatic Door
Unlock
Your vehicle is programmed so that when the shift
lever is moved into PARK (P) for automatic transmission
vehicles or when the ignition is turned off or is in
Retained Accessory Power (RAP) for manual
transmission vehicles, both doors will unlock.
With the vehicle stopped and the engine running,
door unlocking can be programmed through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). This allows the driver
to choose various unlock settings. For programming
information, see DIC Vehicle Personalization on
page 3-75.

Lockout Protection

Your vehicle can be programmed to sound the horn
three times and unlock the driver door when both doors
are closed and there is a keyless access transmitter
inside the vehicle. When the driver door is opened,
a reminder chime will sound continuously. The vehicle
will remain locked only when at least one transmitter
has been removed from the vehicle and both doors are
closed. See DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-75.
