If you leave your headlights on, the car will beep at you. Well, after playing with it and RTM I figured out why mine weren't beeping. Because I had Auto off set to 30 seconds. Why would it beep at me if it's going to shut the lights off itself? Duh.
If you turn off auto off in the infotainment AND use On, not Auto, on the stalk....it works.

Okay, thanks! I've only had them set to "auto."
Related "beeping" question: is there any way to turn off the beeps when you lock or unlock the door? I sometimes come home late and would hate to possibly wake the neighbors. It seems to beep whether i use the fob, the door button, or even the inside lock. Changing the settings (or what I think are the settings) in the infotainment doesn't seem to do anything.

It does say you can in the manual. I like the beeps so I know I have my key when I walk away. If I leave my key in the center console ends walk away and hear no beep...I know I don't have my key.
I'll play with that next and see if I can change it.

Just push the inside door lock button as you exit the car and you will only hear the lock actuators.
That's what I thought but when I did that it beeped.
When I fiddled with that last week it didn't change anything. Eh, maybe I'm doing it wrong. Will try again - and if all else fails I'll read the manual.
Thanks!

Nope, tried just using the inside door lock and it still beeped (though perhaps not as loud).
And I set the keyless volume to "off" and it still beeped when I locked the car via the door handle button.
Gonna read the manual more thoroughly tonight!
Strange, if I lock the car using the inside door lock button and then close the door, no beep.

Same here. I have done this on every car I have owned and it has never beeped using the inside door lock buttons.
Are you guys talking about the electronic door lock button (inside) or the manual lock by the inside handle?
I figure there are four ways to lock/unlock the car:
1. keyless fob
2. button on outside handle
3. inside electric lock
4. inside manual lock
All except the manual lock (which I'm not sure about) will beep once or twice for me, no matter how it's set on the infotainment screen (which is currently set to "off")

Playing with this some more. I turned off the sound. Car does not beep when using the remote. Does not beep when using the outside door handle button. Does beep using the walk away feature. Is this the beep you're hearing RDK?

The electronic button that locks all the doors at once.
I have the walk away thing turned off. Bottom line, it beeps every time (once or twice, depending if I'm locking or unlocking) no matter what lock "button" I use and despite my having the volume turned to "off" in the info system. It's a minor thing to be sure, but I'm just trying to get my head around it.

I believe that's a sensitivity adjustment for when the headlights automatically turn on. Default is Medium. I've changed mine to High so that my headlights come on sooner on a cloudy/rainy day or earlier at dusk.
What is this feature? Anyone?
