DIC Setup Menu

Has anyone checked out the DIC setup menu. I had to access it to reset my Oil Life System after the dealer forgot or didn't bother to do it for me.

You can change some of the behavior for the remote and security system. To access it you:

1) Turn the car off
2) Put the key in the ignition and turn it to the run position (careful not to start the car)
3) Hit both the info and reset buttons on the DIC at the same time.
4) From there use the info button to scrolls between the setting and reset to change them.

Horn on (un)lock, lights on (un)lock and unlock all doors on first key press. English or Metric.

I would like to set mine to unlock all doors on first key press. Then again, it's not to hard to just hit the button twice, you have more than enough time before you get to the car. I mean the range is probably 30+ feet.

That is unless of course a band of thugs was chasing you and you hit the button once, dove in the passenger side and hopped over the ebrake to the drivers side. Then left smoke in their face. But when does that ever happen?
