Unlocking can be personalized in the DIC.

For a vehicle with a manual transaxle, the speed must
be greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
The automatic door locking feature cannot be disabled.

In my 2008 I believe there is an option on the DIC to set when the doors will lock.
Hit the "Info" and '-> (arrow) buttons at the same time and it will give you several options that you can personalize such as whether you want the horn to sound when locking/unlocking the vehicle, whether you want the DIC to display English or Metric measure and when you would like the doors to automatically lock/unlock.
Now if your vehicle isn't auto-locking at ALL then that's a whole different animal altogether.

If so the locks will not engage automatically.
