Last Door Closed Locking The last door closed locking feature makes it easier to use your power door locks to lock all the doors and the liftgate when leaving your vehicle. When any door or the liftgate is open, the first time you attempt to lock the doors using the power lock switch or the remote lock control transmitter (if equipped), this will result in three chimes to signal that last door closed locking is being used. All doors and the liftgate can be opened for five seconds from the time the last door is closed. Five seconds after the last door is closed, all the doors will lock. You can lock the doors immediately by using the power door lock switch or the remote lock control transmitter a second time. If the ignition is in RUN or ACCESSORY, this feature will not lock the doors. To turn the last door closed locking feature off or on, see "Multifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choices" in the Index. Automatic Door Locks All of the doors will lock automatically when you move your shift lever out of PARK (P). All doors will unlock automatically when the ignition is turned off while the shift lever is in PARK (P). You can program the automatic door locks to operate with the remote lock control system and to lock and unlock automatically to suit your needs. See "Multifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choices" in the Index. With the automatic door locks feature, you can still lock or unlock the doors at any time, either manually or with the power door lock switches. Sliding Door Delayed Locking If the sliding door is open when you use your power door locks to lock the vehicle, the sliding door is not locked. Normally the last door closed locking feature will be used to lock the sliding door after it has been closed. When the ignition is on or if the last door closed locking feature has been overridden or programmed to be off, the sliding door delayed locking feature will lock your sliding door for you. Three seconds after the sliding door is closed, all the doors will lock. If you have the dual sliding doors, all doors will lock three seconds after both sliding doors are closed. 2-6
