Default Got the R/T!

Awesome car! That's all I can say.
Can someone enlighten me on 2 points:
1. What are the automatic headlights on the conveneince group II package? We were used no hands headlights with the Olds we had.
2. When do the locks unlock? I was in the back seat and felt trapped when I could not open the door after a brief drive.
The locks stay down until when?
Manual says when drivers door opens that person has to open their door first?

The rear doors have child locks, they may be truned on. Not sure about the headlights. I have a 05 and I have to add a switch off the 300C to get the auto headlights to work. Someone found out you could just modify the current switch to get it to work.

Checked the locks not on.
Saw that post on the mod for the headlight switch, but what is the "automatic lights" in the Group II description?

The rear doors stay locked until either one of the front doors is opened, or the un lock button on the arm rest is pushed.
The child locks will leave the rear doors locked either way, someone has to open the door from the outside, this prevents kids for exiting the car till you let them out..nice feature.

Thanks Viper-GTS we both love the car.
TXRide, can only set the locks to "open on exit" on Personal settings menu, back doors only unlock when one of the front doors open, not when put in park. Will try again to see if I am missing something.

just checked it in various combinations - you're right : it won't open till unlocked from the front, or you can pull lock button yourself... i don't ride much in a back so i didn't pay much attention to this detail before.
