Programmable Automatic
Door Unlock
Your vehicle is programmed so that, when the shift
lever is moved into PARK (P), both doors will unlock.
With the vehicle in PARK (P) and the engine running,
door unlocking can be programmed through prompts
displayed on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
These prompts allow the driver to choose various unlock
settings. For programming information, seeDIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 3-78.
Lockout Protection
Your vehicle can be programmed to sound the horn three
times and unlock the driver’s door when both doors are
closed and there is a keyless access transmitter inside
the vehicle. When the driver’s door is opened, the key in
reminder chime will sound continuously. The vehicle will
remain locked only when at least one transmitter has
been removed from the vehicle and both doors are
closed. SeeDIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-78.
