Programmable Automatic Door Locks; Rear Door Security Locks - Chevrolet 2005 Equinox Owner's Manual

Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
With this feature, all the doors will lock as the transaxle
is shifted out of PARK (P) if the ignition key is in the
run position and all doors are closed. The doors
will automatically lock if the vehicle is going faster than
3 mph (5 km/h).
In the following two situations, when a door is opened,
all doors will lock again:
•
The brake pedal is applied, a door is opened and
then closed, and the brake pedal is released.
•
A door is opened and closed without the brake
pedal applied while the vehicle is moving faster than
3 mph (5 km/h).
The programmable unlocking feature can be
programmed on or off by turning the ignition key to RUN
and pressing the unlock power door lock switch for
eight seconds. The horn will chirp once when this
feature is on and will chirp twice when it is off.
When programmed, all doors will unlock when the
transaxle is shifted into PARK (P).
