How to Set the Automatic Locking Feature on a Mercedes-Benz?
2 Answers
The method to set the automatic locking feature on a Mercedes-Benz is as follows: 1. Turn on the central control display screen; 2. Use the left and right buttons on the steering wheel to select the settings function; 3. Choose vehicle settings; 4. Within the vehicle settings, select automatic lock confirmation to enable the feature. Taking the 2020 Sport Edition Mercedes-Benz E260L as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5065mm, width 1860mm, height 1484mm, with a wheelbase of 3079mm and a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. The 2020 Sport Edition Mercedes-Benz E260L is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 184PS, a maximum power of 135kW, and a maximum torque of 280Nm, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.
I've helped my neighbor adjust this feature several times. First, sit in the driver's seat without pressing the brake pedal, then press the start button twice to illuminate all dashboard indicators. Navigate to the vehicle settings section on the central display screen, look for 'Central Door Lock' or a similar option and select it. Simply enable the 'Auto Lock' option and you're done. Note that the menu path for the new C-Class differs slightly from the S-Class, while for the GLE you might need to check under the Driver Assistance Systems menu. After setting it up, remember to test: have a family member sit inside while you try pulling the door handle from outside - if it doesn't open, you've succeeded. Some older Mercedes models require setting this via buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. Be aware that the vehicle will automatically power off after 20 minutes of inactivity, requiring you to start over. Don't underestimate this feature - having doors suddenly open on highways can be extremely dangerous.
