Programmable Automatic Door Locks
With the ignition in the RUN position, the door locks
can be programmed through the Driver Information
Center (DIC) to allow the driver to choose various lock
settings. Press the RESET button to answer "yes" and
press the INFO button to indicate a "no" response.
To begin programming, press the INFO and RESET
buttons at the same time. The first prompt to appear is
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK?. You must press the
RESET button when this prompt appears to continue
programming the doors. The next prompt to appear is
ENABLE ALL DOORS FOR LOCK AND UNLOCK?.
This selection locks all doors when shifting out of
PARK (P) and unlocks all doors when shifting back into
PARK (P). DISABLE ALL DOORS FOR LOCK AND
UNLOCK? is used when you do not want any automatic
lock functions. The ENABLE ALL LOCKS AND
DRIVER DOOR UNLOCK? prompt locks all doors
when shifting out of PARK (P) and unlocks only the
driver's door when shifting back into PARK (P).
ENABLE ALL DOORS FOR LOCK ONLY? selection
appears next. This prompt is used to lock all doors when
shifting out of PARK (P) and keeps the doors locked
when you shift back into PARK (P).
N
yes or no response must be programmed when a
prompt is displayed. A yes response selects the prompt
and a no response displays the next prompt.
When you finish programming the door locks, the next
prompt to appear is for the vehicle storage mode. For
more information on vehicle storage, see "Battery Guard
Storage" later in this section.
Anti-Lockout Feature
Leaving your key in any ignition position with the
driver's door open will disable the use of the power door
lock switches. The anti-lockout feature is disabled when
the ignition is on. If you close the door, you can lock it
using the Keyless Entry system. It is always
recommended that you remove your ignition key when
locking your vehicle.
Note that this feature is only available with the driver's
door open.
Also note that the anti-lockout feature can be overridden
by holding the power door lock switch for three seconds
or longer.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, open the door, set the
locks from the inside, get out and close the door.
