The factory default is for global unlocking. You can set it for security unlocking (driver and gas filler only) via the key fob. After that you push once for security unlocking and twice for global unlocking.
It's in the owner's manual.

edit: it works with the keyless go option but maybe not without it.......

That's actually a good feature to change. So can you change it via the I/C display? I'd probably rather have the "secure" unlocking.

No, just hold the buttons for both lock and unlock on the Smartkey down at the same time until the little light flashes (about six seconds). The function is tied to the Smartkey so that it matches the individual driver's preferences. My wife only unlocks the driver's door, I unlock everything.

Thanks BudC, worked like a charm!
