Smart unlocks
This feature helps to prevent you from locking yourself out of the vehicle
if your key is still in the ignition.
When you open one of the front doors and you lock the vehicle with the
power door lock control (on the driver or passenger door trim panel), all
the doors will lock, then all doors will automatically unlock reminding
you that your key is still in the ignition.
The vehicle can still be locked, with the key in the ignition, by locking
the driver’s door with a key, using the
control on the transmitter, or
locking the vehicle with the keyless entry keypad.
If both front doors are closed, the vehicle can be locked from any
method, regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.

The smart unlock feature is intended to prevent you from unintentionally
locking your Intelligent Access Key inside your vehicle’s passenger
compartment or trunk.
When you lock your vehicle using the driver or passenger power door
lock control (with the door open), after you close the door the vehicle
will search for a Intelligent Access Key in the passenger compartment. If
a 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 using
your keyless entry keypad or using the
control on another Intelligent
Access Key. Refer toKeyless entry systemin this chapter for more
information on keyless entry keypad operation.

perimeter alarm by unlocking the vehicle, then place the Intelligent
Access Key in the trunk, close the trunk, and rearm your perimeter
