Locks At the Luggage Compartment When you electronically lock your vehicle (with any door open, vehicle in park and ignition off), your vehicle will search for an intelligent access key in the passenger compartment after you close the last door. If your vehicle finds a key, all of the doors will immediately unlock and the horn will sound twice, indicating that a key is inside. You can override the smart unlock feature and intentionally lock the intelligent access key inside your vehicle. To do this, lock your vehicle after you have closed all the doors by: • using the keyless entry keypad • pressing the lock button on another intelligent access key • touching the locking area on the handle with another intelligent access key in your hand. When you open one of the front doors and lock your vehicle using the power door lock control, all doors will lock then unlock if: • the ignition is on, or • the ignition is off and your vehicle is not in P. Auto Relock If you press the unlock button on the remote control and do not open a door within 45 seconds, your vehicle will lock and the alarm will arm. You can enable or disable this feature in the information display. See (page 107). Autolock Feature The autolock feature will lock all the doors when: • all doors are closed, • the ignition is on, • you shift into any gear putting your vehicle in motion, and • your vehicle attains a speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h). The autolock feature repeats when: • you open then close any door while the ignition is on and your vehicle speed is 9 mph (15 km/h) or lower, and • your vehicle then attains a speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h).
