Does the MG6 require pressing the lock button twice for one-touch locking?

The MG6 requires pressing the lock button twice for one-touch locking. The first press produces a locking sound, and the side mirrors fold after the second press. Introduction to One-Touch Start: The car one-touch start is a part of smart car systems, serving as a button device that simplifies the ignition process and can also be used to turn off the engine. The one-touch start can be retrofitted either at the original car key lock position or as an independent panel. Functions of One-Touch Start: The intelligent one-touch start system features include automatic unlocking, automatic locking, automatic window closing, automatic anti-theft, one-touch start, one-touch shutdown, automatic locking before driving, automatic unlocking when parking and turning off the engine, and an additional trunk-opening function.
As a long-time MG6 owner, I've encountered this issue before. Normally, pressing the lock button once will lock all doors and automatically fold the mirrors. But there are special cases to note: if the windows aren't fully closed, you need to hold the lock button for 3 seconds to auto-close them; when finding your car in a parking lot, pressing the lock button twice will make the lights flash and horn sound - super convenient. I recommend developing the habit of pulling the rear door after locking to ensure it's truly secured. Once I got burned by this - pressed the key and walked away without noticing the door bounced back unlocked, nearly losing items inside. So don't fully rely on the key's indicator light, manual verification is most reliable.
Tried several operation methods, the MG6 doesn't require pressing the remote key twice to lock. Under normal conditions, pressing the remote key once will completely lock the doors. The more practical feature is the keyless entry system that automatically unlocks when the key is near and locks when leaving, though it's recommended to set the sensitivity properly in the car's system. Pay special attention to special cases: if a door isn't closed properly, pressing the lock button will trigger an alarm prompt, and you'll need to close the door properly before locking; if there's signal interference or the key is running low on battery, it's normal to press several times to lock. I'm used to watching the side mirrors fold into place after locking, and checking if the hazard lights flash twice for confirmation. Avoid keeping the key with your phone as it can interfere with the signal.
