Locks Note: If any door or the luggage compartment is not closed, or if the hood is not closed on vehicles equipped with an anti-theft alarm or remote start, the horn will chirp twice and the lamps will not flash. 73 Activating intelligent access The intelligent access key must be within 3 feet (1 meter) of the vehicle. At the front doors Pull a front exterior door handle. The door will unlock and can be opened. Press and hold the door handle lock sensor to lock the vehicle. At the liftgate Press the button hidden near the license plate. Smart Unlocks The smart unlock feature is intended to prevent you from unintentionally locking your intelligent access key inside your vehicle's passenger compartment or rear cargo area. When you lock your vehicle using the driver or passenger power door lock control (with the door open, vehicle in park and ignition off), after you close the door the vehicle will search for an intelligent access key in the passenger compartment. If an intelligent access key is found inside the vehicle, all of the doors will immediately unlock and the horn will chirp, indicating that the intelligent access key is inside. In order to override the smart unlock feature and intentionally lock the intelligent access key inside the vehicle, you can lock your vehicle after all doors are closed by using the keyless entry keypad, pressing the lock button on another intelligent access key or touching the locking area on the handle with another intelligent access key in your hand. Refer to SecuriCode™ Keyless Entry Keypad in this chapter for more information on keyless entry keypad operation. 2013 MKT (mkt) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
