Smart Unlocks for Intelligent
Access Keys
(If Equipped)
This helps to prevent you from locking your
key inside the passenger compartment or
rear cargo area.
When you electronically lock your vehicle
with any door open, the transmission is in
park (P) and the ignition is off, the system
searches for an intelligent access key
inside your vehicle after you close the last
door. If the system finds a key, all of the
doors will immediately unlock and the horn
will sound twice, indicating that a key is
inside.
You can override the smart unlock feature
and intentionally lock the intelligent access
key inside your vehicle.
To do this, lock your vehicle after you have
closed all the doors by:
•
Using the keyless entry keypad.
•
Pressing the lock button on another
intelligent access key.
•
Touching the locking area on the front
of the door handle with another
intelligent access key in your hand.
When you open one of the front doors and
lock your vehicle using the power door lock
control, all doors will lock then unlock if:
•
The ignition is on.
•
The ignition is off and the transmission
is not in park (P).
Autolock
Autolock locks all the doors when:
•
All doors are closed.
•
The ignition is on.
•
You shift into any gear putting your
vehicle in motion.
•
Your vehicle attains a speed greater
than 4 mph (7 km/h).
Autounlock
(If Equipped)
Autounlock unlocks all the doors when:
•
The ignition is on, all the doors are
closed and your vehicle has been in
motion at a speed greater than 4 mph
(7 km/h).
•
Your vehicle comes to a stop and you
switch the ignition off or to the
accessory position.
•
You open the driver door within 10
minutes of switching the ignition off or
to accessory.
Note:
If you electronically lock your vehicle
after you switch the ignition off with the
driver door closed, the doors will not
autounlock.
