Programmable Automatic Door Locks Your vehicle is programmed from the factory to automatically lock and unlock under certain conditions. If all the doors are closed, when you move the shift lever out of PARK (P) all of the doors will lock on a vehicle with an automatic transmission or when the vehicle reaches a speed of 8 mph (13 kph) on a vehicle with a manual transmission. Every time you move the shift lever back into PARK (P), the doors will unlock for a vehicle with an automatic transmission or when the key is removed from the ignition for a vehicle with a manual transmission. If someone needs to get out while you are not in PARK (P) or while the key is in the ignition, have that person use the manual or power lock. When the door is closed again, it will not lock automatically. Use the manual or power lock to lock the door again. Customizing Your Automatic Door Locks Feature The automatic door locks can be programmed to the preferred settings for up to two drivers.
