If the vehicle has the content theft-deterrent system, the vehicle is programmed to arm the system with the power door lock switch. If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC) this feature can be turned off. See "Content Theft" under DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-74. Automatic Door Lock The doors are programmed to automatically lock when the shift lever is moved into a forward gear. If someone needs to get in or out of the vehicle after the doors have been locked, place the shift lever into P (PARK). You may also unlock all doors using the power door lock switch or unlock one door using the inside manual door lock. The automatic door lock feature cannot be disabled. Delayed Locking Your vehicle may have this feature. It delays the locking of the vehicle's doors for five seconds after the last door is closed. Two chimes will sound when the power door lock switch or the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is pressed when a door is open. If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC), a Delayed Locking warning will be displayed. The doors can be locked immediately by pressing the power door lock switch or the LOCK button on the transmitter a second time. The delayed locking feature will not activate when the ignition is in ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY. You can program this feature on or off through the Driver Information Center (DIC), if equipped. See "Delayed Locking" under DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-74. Programmable Automatic Door Unlock The vehicle's doors are programmed from the factory to unlock when the shift lever is moved into PARK (P). On vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC), there are different programming options for unlocking the doors automatically. See DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-74. 2-10
