This is a personalization feature that programs your door locks to automatically lock or unlock your vehicle.

This feature allows you to program the vehicle to lock all doors when shifting out of PARK (P). Or, you can program the door locks to do one of the following:

    • Unlock only the driver's door when shifting back into PARK (P),
    • unlock all doors when shifting back into PARK (P),
    • unlock only the driver's door when turning the ignition to OFF,
    • unlock all doors when turning the ignition to OFF, or
    • no automatic door unlock when shifting into PARK (P) or turning the ignition to OFF.

You can also program this feature to be turned off. Then you will not have automatic door lock or unlock.

This feature will function when you close the doors and turn on the ignition. If someone needs to get out while you're not in PARK (P), have that person use the manual or power door lock. When the door is closed again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual or power lock to lock the door again.

You must program this feature through the DIC. See DIC Vehicle Personalization .

Overriding Lock Delay

If you need to lock your doors before shifting out of PARK (P), use the manual or power door lock switch to lock the doors.
