Pressing the button (1) or touching lock sensor (2) of the front outside door handles with all doors closed and any door unlocked, locks all the doors.

If all doors and engine hood are closed, the hazard warning lights will blink once and the chime will sound once to indicate that all doors are locked.

Pressing the button (1) or touch the unlock sensor (2) of the driver side door handles with all doors closed and locked, unlocks the driver’s door. The hazard warning lights will blink twice, and the chime will sound twice to indicate that the driver’s door is unlocked.

TIP

  • The door handle button will only operate when the smart key is within 40 inches (1 m) from the outside door handle.

  • If you lock the doors using the door handle button/lock sensor, the doors are not locked and the chime will sound for 3 seconds under the following circumstances:

    • The smart key is in the vehicle.

    • The vehicle is in the ACC or ON position.

    • Any door except the liftgate is open.

    • After pressing the door lock/unlock button or touching the unlock sensor to unlock, the doors will lock automatically unless you open any door within 30 seconds.

If the lock and unlock sensors (Touch sensor type) are touched at the same time for about 2 seconds, the door may lock. Be sure to touch the unlock sensor to unlock and the lock sensor to lock, not both at once unless intentionally setting the lock/unlock prevention feature.
