Delayed Locking- Page 80

2-11

Delayed locking is activated when a door lock switch is
pressed while the key is not in the vehicle’s ignition, and
a door is open. The door lock switch may be either the
lock switch on the door or on the remote keyless entry
transmitter (see “Remote Keyless Entry” later in this
section for more details). The doors do not lock when
the lock switch is pressed, but instead, three chimes are
heard. These chimes indicate that the delayed locking
feature has been activated.

You have three actions possible once delayed locking 
is activated:

D

Cancel the delayed locking by pressing the unlock
switch or by fully inserting the key in the ignition.

D

Override the delayed locking feature and lock the
doors immediately by pressing the lock switch a
second time.

D

Let the delayed locking feature complete the locking
of the vehicle.

If you wish to let the delayed locking feature complete
the locking of the vehicle, no additional action is
required. The delayed locking feature will lock the doors
automatically after all the doors have been closed for a
period of five seconds. During this five second period,
any door may be reopened, at which time the three
possible actions shown above are again available.

You may also customize your vehicle to activate the
delayed locking feature as described above, or you 
may choose to completely disable the feature at all
times. If disabled, the power door locks will activate
immediately when a power door lock switch is pressed.
The enabled/disabled state of the delayed locking
feature will be toggled when you perform the following
sequence with the doors closed and the ignition key 
in RUN:

1. Apply your regular brakes.

2. Press and hold the power door unlock switch. While

holding the door unlock switch, move the shift lever
out of and back into PARK (P).

After an initial transaxle cycle, each additional cycle will
toggle the enable/disable state of the delayed locking
feature. During this procedure, the chime will sound,
providing you with feedback. In Mode 1, a single chime
will be heard if the delayed locking feature is disabled. 
In Mode 2, two chimes will be heard if the feature is
enabled. When the door unlock switch is released, the
vehicle will remain in the most recent operating mode.

Disconnecting the vehicle battery for up to a year will
not change the programmed mode of the delayed
locking feature.
