Last Door Closed Locking
The last door closed locking feature makes it easier to
use your power door locks to lock 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), this
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.
Five seconds after the last door is closed, all the doors
will lock. You can lock the doors immediately by using
the power door lock switch or the remote keyless entry
transmitter a second time.
If the ignition is in RUN or ACCESSORY, this feature
will not lock the doors.
To turn the last door closed locking feature off or on, see
“Multifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choices” in
the Index.
Automatic Door 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 “Multifunction
Alarm 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.
Sliding Door Delayed Locking
If the sliding door is open when you use your power door
locks to lock the vehicle, the sliding door is not locked.
Normally the last door closed locking feature will be used
to lock the sliding door after it has been closed.
When the ignition is on or if the last door closed locking
feature has been overridden or programmed to be off,
the sliding door delayed locking feature will lock your
sliding door for you. Three seconds after the sliding
door is closed, all the doors will lock. If you have the
dual sliding doors, all doors will lock three seconds after
both sliding doors are closed.
