    Sadly it requires equipment at the dealership unless you own an OBDII programmer like the Scangauge II or ELM

    On my 2013 Prius I only had to hold lock & unlock (not panic) to change this setting. An image of the car with 4 doors opened appeared on the speedo cluster.

    On the Persona, just hold lock & unlock at the same until remote fob light stop blinking. That if you wanted four doors unlock.

    Just to clarify in case anyone else is confused :). The video on the first page talks about needing to push all three buttons on the fob to switch the smart key mode. The PDF file a few replies above says only the dealer can do it. On my 2013 model 3, pushing TWO buttons (lock and unlock) and holding a bit switched the car mode so that a single touch on the driver's door unlocks all the doors. I did not see any display but I might have missed it. Perhaps things changed from requiring all three buttons some year between 2010 and 2013!

    Thanks for all who contributed to this thread!

    So on my 2015, Type 2, these procedures don't work, even though I do get the 4-doors open on the display. Thoughts?

    I just click my fob twice and all four doors unlock. If I don't want the other doors unlocked, I just touch the driver door handle, it unlocks and get in.

    The manual says "see the dealer." Not my first choice - they'll probably charge for it.
    And I want it to work by grabbing the handle. I know I can press the remote button twice.

    So I guess 3/4 of a loaf is better than none - what does work now is that grabbing the driver door handle opens all 4 (actually 5); but I really want to be able to grab the passenger door handle and have everything unlock. Oh well...

    I don't think the other doors have the touch sensor installed in them. I just reset mine so when I touch the drivers door, the others open.

    There is a way to do this. I think I did it by getting in the car and holding down the unlock button on the fob while sitting in driver seat, or something like that, which changes the setting. You can alternate the setting to make the handle open just the driver door or all doors. If you google it there's probably instructions somewhere.

    I've got that working. I wanted to be able to grab the passenger door and also have that unlock all 4. The 2 seems to not have the needed sensor on the passenger door handle.

    Oh, right. I have a 2013 Two. The sensor is only on the driver door.
