Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, the
vehicle is programmed so that the doors will lock
automatically when all doors are closed, the ignition
is on, and the shift lever is moved out of PARK (P). The
doors will automatically unlock when you stop the
vehicle and move the shift lever back into PARK (P).
If your vehicle has a manual transmission, the vehicle is
programmed so that the doors will lock automatically
after the vehicle speed reaches 5 mph (8 km). The doors
will automatically unlock when the ignition is turned
off and the key is removed from the ignition.
If someone needs to exit the vehicle once the doors
are locked, have that person use the manual lever
or power door lock switch. When the door is closed
again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual lever
or the power door lock switch to lock the door.
The power door locks can be programmed through
prompts displayed on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). These prompts allow you to choose
various lock and unlock settings. For more information
on programming, see
DIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-70 .
Rear Door Security Locks
Your vehicle has rear door security locks that prevent
passengers from opening the rear doors on your vehicle
from the inside.
The rear door security locks
are located on the inside
edge of each rear door.
You must open the rear
doors to access them.
To use these locks, do the following:
1. Insert your key into the slot next to the rear door
security lock label and turn it to engage the lock.
2. Close the door.
3. Repeat the steps for the other rear door.
The rear doors on your vehicle cannot be opened from
the inside when this feature is in use.
