feature is designed to help keep you from locking your
keys in your vehicle.
If the sliding door is open wheq you press the power

out of PARK

If the sliding door is open when you move the shift lever
out of PARK (P) or manually lock the doors using the
power door lock switches, a lock delay feature allows
the sliding door
to lock five seconds after it is closed.
All other doors will lock again, too.

or unlock the doors at any time, either manually or with
the power
door lock switches.
