Keys, Doors, and Windows 2-15 Central Door Unlocking System The vehicle has a central door unlocking feature. When unlocking the driver door, the other doors can be unlocked by holding the key in the turned position for a few seconds or by quickly turning the key twice in the lock cylinder. K (Unlock): Press to unlock the doors. Q (Lock): Remove the key from the ignition and press to lock the doors. Automatic Door Locks For vehicles with an automatic transmission, the doors will lock automatically when all doors are closed, the ignition is on, and the shift lever is moved out of P (Park). The doors will automatically unlock when the vehicle is stopped and the shift lever is moved into P (Park). For vehicles with a manual transmission, the doors will lock automatically after the vehicle speed reaches 8 km/h (5 mph). The doors will automatically unlock when the key is turned off and removed from the ignition. Use the manual or power door locks to unlock the doors if someone needs to exit, and to lock the doors again. The power door locks can be programmed through the Driver Information Center (DIC). See Vehicle Personalization on page 5‑45. Delayed Locking With this feature, you can delay the actual locking of the doors. When the power door lock switch is pressed when the key is not in the ignition and the driver door is opened, a chime will sound three times indicating that delayed locking is active. When all the doors are closed, the doors will lock automatically after five seconds. If a door is reopened before five seconds have elapsed, the five second timer will reset itself once all the doors are closed again. Power Door Locks Sedan/Wagon Shown, Coupe Similar The switches are on the front doors. You can press the door lock switch again or the lock button on the RKE transmitter to override this feature and lock the doors immediately.
