Power Door Locks
With the power door locks, you can lock or unlock all of
the doors on your vehicle using the driver’s or front
passenger’s door lock switch.
Press the bottom of the switch to lock
all
of the doors.
Press the top of the switch to unlock all of the doors.
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
Lockout
Protection on
page2-71
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” listed previously for more
information.
If
the driver opens another door before the seven
seconds are up, the doors will not lock until seven
seconds have elapsed 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
symbol 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.
Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
Your vehicle has a feature that allows you to program
your power door locks to automatically lock and
unlock under certain conditions. You can program your
vehicle to have all of the doors lock when you move
your shift lever out of PARK (P) to REVERSE
(R)
if
your
vehicle has an automatic transaxle or when the
vehicle speed is greater than
5
mph (8 km/h)
if
your
vehicle has a manual transaxle.
If
someone needs to get
out while the vehicle is running, have that person use
the door lock. When the door is closed again, it will lock
automatically when the vehicle reaches about
5
mph
(8
km/h). You can also program all doors to
automatically unlock when the shift lever is moved to
PARK (P) on vehicles with an automatic transaxle or to
REVERSE (R) on vehicles with a manual transaxle
when the key is turned to
OFF.
