Power Door Locks
Press the power door lock switch to lock or unlock both
doors at once.
Automatic Door Locks
Close your doors and turn on the ignition. Every time
you move the shift lever out of PARK (P), both doors
will lock. The doors will unlock every time you stop the
vehicle and move the shift lever back into PARK (P). If
someone needs to get out while your vehicle is not in
PARK (P), have that person use the manual or power
door lock. When the door is closed again, it will not
lock automatically. Use the manual or power door lock
to lock the door again. If you need to lock the doors
before shifting out of PARK (P), use the manual or
power door lock.
Programmable Automatic Door Locks
(If Equipped)
With the ignition in RUN, the door locks can be
programmed through prompts displayed by the Driver
Information Center (DIC). These prompts allow the
driver to choose various lock settings. For programming
information, see “Memory and Personalization
Features” in the Index.
Anti-Lockout Feature
Leaving your key in any ignition position with either
door open will disable the use of the power door lock
switches as well as the lock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter. If you close the doors, you can lock
them using the remote keyless entry transmitter. It is
always recommended that you remove your ignition
key when locking your vehicle.
Note: The anti
-
lockout feature can be overridden by
holding the driver’s power door lock switch for three
seconds or longer.
