To unlock any door or the liftgate from the outside with
your key, turn the key to the unlock position and release.
This will only unlock that door or the liftgate. You can
unlock all the doors and the liftgate by holding the key
cylinder,in the unlock position for one second.
With power
d o 0 1
locks, you can lock all the doors from
the outside
by
inserting the key and turning the key
cylinder to th'e lock position.
With power locks, when the doors are locked, the inside
as well as the outside door handle cannot open the
doors. This safety feature prevents
a
door from being
accidentally opened
from the inside by
moving
the handle.
To override this safety feature, move the locking lever to
the unlock position on the door you want to open.
When the liftgate has been unlocked with the power
door locks, you won't need the key to open it. Simply
squeeze the handle above the license plate. This is also
true if you use the optional remote keyless entry
transmitter. See "Keyless Entry System" later in
this section.
Automatic D'oor Locks
All of the doors will lock automatically when you move
your shift lever out of PARK
( P ) .
All doors will unlock
automatically when the ignition is turned off while the
shift lever is in
PARK (P).
You can
program the Automatic
Door
Locks
to
operate
with the remote keyless entry system and to lock and
unlock automatically to suit your needs.
See
"Locks and
Lighting Choices" in the Index.
With the Automatic Door Locks feature, you can still
lock or unlock the doors at any time, either manually or
with the power door lock switches.
Last Door Closed Locking
The Last Door Closed Locking feature makes it easier to
use your power door locks to lo'ck all the doors and the
liftgate when leaving your vehicle.
When any door or the liftgate
is
open, the first time you
attempt to lock the doors using the power lock switch or
the remote keyless entry transmitter (if equipped), will
result in three chimes to signal that Last Door Closed
Locking
is
being used. All doors and the liftgate can be
opened for five seconds from the time the last door
is closed.
