Vehicles with power door have the delayed locking feature. This feature delays the actual locking of the doors when the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is used to lock the vehicle.

If any door is open when locking the vehicle using the RKE transmitter, three chimes will sound signaling that the delayed locking feature is active. Five seconds after the last door is closed, both doors will lock and the parking lamps will flash. To cancel the delay and lock the doors immediately, press the lock button on the RKE a second time.

If the key is in the ignition, this feature will not lock the doors.

Your vehicle is programmed from the factory with this feature turned off. To turn the feature on, you must go through the Driver Information Center (DIC), if the vehicle has one. See DIC Vehicle Personalization .
