Getting to Know Your Grand Am

Programmable Automatic Power
Door Locks
Grand Am’s Power Door Locks can be
programmed to fit your needs. First,
close all the doors and make sure the
ignition is in the ON position and your
foot is on the brake pedal. When you
move the gearshift out of Park, all the
doors will automatically lock. When the
gearshift is returned to Park and the
ignition is turned to OFF, all doors will
automatically unlock. If someone needs
to get in or out while you’re in Park, use
the manual or Power Door Lock switch.
When a door has been opened and
closed again, it will lock automatically
when the car has reached 5 mph.
Programmable Automatic Power Door
Locks can be set to any of the following
modes:
MODE 1: Factory Setting — All doors
automatically lock when shifted out of
Park. All doors automatically unlock
when shifted into Park and the ignition is
turned to OFF.
MODE 2: All doors automatically lock
when shifted out of Park. Driver door
only unlocks when shifted into Park and
the ignition is turned to OFF (Remote
Keyless Entry only).
MODE 3: All doors automatically lock
when shifted out of Park. Doors do not
unlock when shifted into Park and the
ignition is turned to OFF (Remote
Keyless Entry only).
MODE 4: The doors do not lock or
unlock automatically.
How to Program Automatic Power
Door Locks
To change modes (settings), simply:
1. Close the doors and turn the ignition
to the ON position. Keep all doors
closed throughout this procedure.
2. Press and hold down either Power
Door Lock switch in the LOCK posi-
tion for 10 seconds.
3. When the chime sounds, you can
release the switch. The Program-
mable Door Lock feature has been
advanced to the next setting and will
remain in this mode unless changed
again. The number of chime sounds
indicates which mode you are in (for
example, three chimes sound for
Mode 3). The modes occur in the
following order: Mode 1; Mode 2 and
Mode 3 (if equipped with Remote
Keyless Entry); Mode 4. Functions
will operate as defined previously in
each mode.
