Yeah it's not in the manual, or at least not that I've seen. Go out and try it, lock the doors from the inside and then shut the drivers side door and see if it automatically unlocks them again. ...

It's not overly easy because some parts that need to be specific for Maximas are hard to find, although everything Ceased had damaged should be able to be found somewhere in NZ.
