Delayed Locking
If you try to electrically lock the doors while they are open, they will not
lock until the doors are closed. This feature only works when smart locks
are not active. See Smart locks in this section for more information
Smart Unlocks for Integrated Keyhead Transmitter
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 lock the vehicle with the
power door lock control, all the doors will lock then unlock if your key is
still in the ignition.
The vehicle can still be locked by pressing the lock button on the
transmitter even if the doors are not closed.
If both front doors are closed, the vehicle can be locked by any method,
regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.
Smart Unlocks for Intelligent Access Keys (If Equipped)
This feature helps 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 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 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.
When you open one of the front doors and lock the vehicle using the
power door lock control, all doors will lock then unlock if:
• the ignition is on, or
• the ignition is off and the vehicle is not in P (Park).
