When your vehicle was shipped from the factory it was
programmed in Mode 1. To determine the current mode
or to change to a different mode, do the following:
1. Put an automatic transaxle in PARK (P) or a manual
transaxle in REVERSE (R) with the parking brake
engaged and turn the ignition to ON.
2. Press and hold the lower part of the power door lock
switch for 10 seconds. Release the switch when you
hear the chime.
3. Count the number of chimes you hear. The number
of chimes tells you which mode your vehicle is in.
You can change the mode by pressing and holding
the lower part of the power door lock switch (two
chimes for Mode 2, three chimes for Mode 3 and
four chimes for Mode 4).
4. Repeat Step 2 until you hear the number of chimes
that matches the mode you want.
The mode you selected is now set.
Delayed Locking
This feature will allow the driver to delay the actual
locking of the vehicle. This feature will not operate if
the key is left in the ignition. See “Anti
-
Lockout
Protection” later in this section.
When the lower part of the driver’s power door lock
switch is pressed, with the key removed from the
ignition and the driver’s door open, three chimes will
be heard. The doors will not lock. Seven seconds
after the driver’s door has been closed, all of the doors
will lock and the parking lamps will flash. The horn
will also chirp if the horn chirp feature is enabled.
See “Programmable Horn Chirp” in the Index for
more information.
If the driver opens another door before the seven
seconds, the doors will not lock until seven seconds
after the last door is closed.
If the lower part of the power door lock switch is
pressed twice when leaving the vehicle, or the
LOCK button on the remote keyless entry transmitter
is pressed, the doors will lock immediately.
If the power door lock switch is pressed to unlock,
the doors will not lock automatically.
