Buick Encore: Keys and Locks / Delayed Locking
This feature delays the locking of the doors until five seconds after all doors are closed.
Delayed locking can only be turned on when the Open Door Anti-Lockout has been turned off.
When 
is pressed on the power
door lock
switch while the door is open, a chime will
sound three times indicating delayed locking
is active.
The doors will lock automatically five seconds after all doors are closed. If a door is reopened before that time, the five-second timer will reset when all doors are closed again.
Press 
on the door lock switch
again or
press 
on the RKE transmitter to
lock the
doors immediately.
This feature can also be programmed. See Vehicle Personalization (8 Inch Screen) or Vehicle Personalization (7 Inch Screen).
Automatic Door Locks
The doors will lock automatically when all
doors are closed, the ignition is on, and the
vehicle is shifted out of P (Park).
If a vehicle door is unlocked, and then
opened and closed, the doors will lock either
when your foot is removed from the brake
or the vehicle speed becomes faster than
13 km/h (8 mph)...
