Smart Unlocks for Intelligent
Access Keys
This feature helps to prevent you from

intelligent access key.
• Touching the locking area on the door
panel with another intelligent access
key in your hand. When you open one of the front doors and
lock your vehicle using the power door lock
control, all doors lock then unlock if:
•
The ignition is on.
• The ignition is off and your vehicle is
not in park (P).

• All doors are closed.
• The ignition is on.
• You shift into any gear putting your
vehicle in motion.
• Your vehicle reaches a speed greater
than
12 mph (20 km/h).
Autolock repeats when:
• You open then close any door while the
ignition is on and your vehicle speed is
9 mph (15 km/h)
or lower.
• Your vehicle reaches a speed greater
than
12 mph (20 km/h).
Autounlock
Autounlock unlocks all the doors when:
• Your vehicle has been moving at a
speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h).
• All doors are closed.
• The ignition is on.
• The vehicle comes to a stop and you
switch the ignition off or to the
accessory position.
• You open the driver door within 10
minutes of switching the ignition off or
to accessory.
Note: The doors will not autounlock if you
electronically lock your vehicle after you
switch the ignition off and before you open
the driver door.
