This feature will allow the driver to delay the actual locking of the vehicle. This feature will not operate if the key is left in the ignition. See Lockout Protection .

When LOCK on the driver's power door lock switch is pressed, with the key removed from the ignition and the driver's door open, three chimes will be heard signally the delay. The doors will not lock until seven seconds after the driver's door has been closed. All of the doors will then lock and the parking lamps will flash twice. The horn will also chirp if the horn chirp feature is enabled. See "Programmable Horn Chirp" listed previously for more information.

If another door opens during this delay, the locking of the doors will occur seven seconds after all of the doors are closed.

Press the power door lock switch twice when leaving the vehicle, or press the LOCK button on the remote keyless entry transmitter for the door to lock immediately.

If the power door lock switch is pressed to unlock, the doors will unlock immediately and not lock automatically after the doors are closed.
