Very Wierd Issue with Door Locks

Guys,
I have just started having an issue with my CLK55. The doors keep locking by themselves when the car is parked, I unlock them by remote with the key and about 30 seconds later without doing anything the car locks again. Just to clarify, the car is not running and the key is not in the car.

I checked to make sure that the key does not have the lock button pushed down or "stuck" and it seems to be fine.

Is there a setting that the car has that will auto lock the doors when the car is parked that I may have somehow turned on? If there is how do I turn it off?

Thanks for the help in advance,
Bob

Doors will re-lock in about 30-40 sec if you don't open a door.

Yep, that is what was happening. Normally I'll unlock the car and get right in but the other day I unlocked it and got tied up talking to someone heard it lock and unlocked it again and still waited to get in so it locked again. I thought I had an issue with the key but thanks for the answers guys now I know it's a feature and not me.

Thanks for the help guys!
