How to activate the automatic locking function on the Volkswagen Tiguan L?
2 Answers
The automatic locking function of the Tiguan L activates when the vehicle speed reaches 15 km/h, requiring no additional settings. The purpose of the automatic locking function is anti-theft, ensuring the doors lock quickly after driving to prevent door-pull robberies during traffic jams or at red lights, providing a certain level of security. The Tiguan L is a vehicle under SAIC Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4712mm in length, 1839mm in width, and 1673mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2791mm. The car comes standard with features such as xenon headlights, automatic headlight activation, LED taillights, roof rails, a multifunction steering wheel, rear seats that can be split 4:6, a CleanAir PM2.5 dust filter, automatic rain-sensing wipers, and keyless start.
Last time I just helped my sister set up the auto-locking feature on her Tiguan L, and it was super easy. First, power up the car—no need to start the engine, just turn the key until the dashboard lights up. Then tap the central control screen to find the little gear icon, which is the settings menu. Go into the vehicle settings section, and there should be a central door lock option with an auto-lock switch. After checking and saving, remember to shift into D gear and roll forward a few meters to test it. If you hear a 'click' sound when the doors lock, it's done. My sister always uses this feature when driving with kids—once the speed exceeds 15km/h, the doors automatically lock, so there’s no worry about little ones messing with the door handles.
