Double Locking
WARNING
Do not use double locking when
passengers or animals are inside your
vehicle. You will not be able to
unlock the doors from the inside if you have
double locked them.
Double locking is a theft protection feature
that prevents someone from opening the
doors from the inside. You can only double
lock the doors if they are all closed.
Press the button twice within
three seconds.
Automatic Relocking
The doors will relock automatically if you
do not open a door within 45 seconds of
unlocking the doors with the remote
control. The door locks and the alarm will
return to their previous state.
