This feature lets the driver delay the actual locking of the doors. When the power door lock switch or the remote keyless entry lock button is pressed with the key removed from the ignition and the driver's door open, a chime will sound three times to signal that the lock delay mode is active. When all doors have been closed, the doors will lock automatically after five seconds. If any door is opened before this, the five-second timer will reset itself once all the doors have been closed again.

Pressing the door lock switch or the remote keyless entry lock button a second time will override this feature.

The delayed locking feature can be turned on or off for each remote keyless entry transmitter.

To turn the feature on do the following:

1. Press and hold LOCK on the power door lock switch on the driver's door throughout this procedure. All the doors will lock.
2. Press the unlock button on the transmitter to enter the programming mode. The lock delay is still off and all doors will remain locked.
3. Press the unlock button on the transmitter again. Lock delay is now active and all doors will unlock.
4. Release the power door lock switch.

To turn this feature off, repeat the above procedure.

If your vehicle is equipped with the Driver Information Center (DIC), you can also program this feature through the DIC. See Driver Information Center (DIC) .
