The Magotan does not have an automatic locking function. You need to use the key to lock the doors or use the lock switch on the door. Here is some related information about the keyless entry function: 1. With the continuous development of automotive production technology, many high-end models are equipped with a keyless entry function. After the car is turned off, if you carry the smart key near the car and press the button on the door, the car's computer will detect the key and lock the doors. This method can also be used to unlock the car. 2. After pressing the lock switch, first check if the car's hazard lights are on. If the car has an automatic folding mirror function, the mirrors will automatically fold after locking. Another way is to pull the car's door handle. If the door does not open, it means the car is locked.

Last time I drove my friend's Magotan, I noticed this feature. Once the car starts and the speed exceeds about 15 km/h, all four door locks automatically click and lock, which is especially useful when waiting at traffic lights in the city. Enabling it is simple—just find the vehicle settings on the central control screen, go to the door and window switch section, and you'll see the auto-lock option. When you park and turn off the engine, the doors will automatically unlock without needing to press a button, though this feature can also be turned off in the settings. Once, a friend's child was being mischievous in the back seat, but the auto-lock prevented the danger of the door suddenly opening. It's really practical for family users. Volkswagen's system is quite user-friendly, and while the settings location may vary slightly across different model years, the basic logic remains the same.

When studying German car features, I specifically tested the automatic locking function of the Magotan. It is actually triggered by the speed sensor. When the vehicle starts and reaches a preset speed (usually 20km/h), the onboard computer sends a signal to the door lock motor to complete the automatic locking. The new Magotan also allows you to set the unlocking method in the instrument cluster menu, such as choosing to unlock all doors with one press of the key or only the driver's seat. During actual testing on rainy days while driving on the highway, it felt particularly reassuring without the distraction of pressing the lock button. This feature can also be linked to the seatbelt reminder. If someone hasn't fastened their seatbelt, there will be a continuous warning on the instrument panel after automatic locking. It is recommended to manually lock the car during long parking periods, as the automatic system is only activated while driving.

Actually, many owners don't notice the hidden features of the Magotan. Holding down the lock button on the key fob can activate the automatic window roll-up. But when it comes to auto-locking, it's truly a safety champion! For forgetful people like me who often wonder if they've locked the doors, having auto-lock brings great peace of mind. The doors automatically lock within seconds of driving, which feels especially reassuring when driving alone at night. The setting is in the 'Vehicle' menu on the center console screen, where you can also enable automatic mirror folding at the same time. I remember once resting at a service area and returning to find the doors had automatically unlocked after turning off the engine - that's when I realized the locking and unlocking functions are interconnected.

From a technical perspective, the automatic door locking feature in the Magotan is considered a basic safety configuration. The ECU monitors vehicle movement via ABS wheel speed signals and triggers the central locking system when reaching a preset threshold. This speed threshold is typically adjustable between 15-25 km/h, and based on my experience, setting it at 20 km/h is most reasonable. In older models, this setting was adjusted via the instrument cluster, while newer models handle it through the MIB infotainment screen. Some friends have reported automatic locking failures, which are usually caused by stuck door lock modules or faulty speed sensors. It's important to avoid letting foreign objects get stuck in door gaps - a colleague once had a coin fall into the lock mechanism, causing the auto-lock to malfunction. Having technicians check electrical connectors during regular maintenance is also a good practice.
