How to set the automatic locking for Trumpchi GS4?
3 Answers
To set the automatic locking function for the Trumpchi GS4, you can visit a 4S dealership and use a specialized computer to access the body control module settings and adjust it via coding. 1. After the adjustment, close all doors, turn the ignition to the ON position (without starting the engine), and press and hold the central locking button for more than 5 seconds. When the hazard lights flash twice, the setup is successful. 2. The automatic speed-sensing locking is an electronic feature that automatically engages the door locks when the vehicle reaches a preset speed, preventing accidental door opening. 3. The preset speed is usually set by the manufacturer, typically between 10-20 km/h. There are other methods for automatic locking while driving. For example, some models from Chevrolet and Buick automatically lock the doors when the transmission is shifted to D (Drive) gear, preventing accidental door opening.
I've tried the auto-lock function on the Trumpchi GS4 several times, and it's actually quite simple. First, start the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal. Then locate the 'Vehicle Settings' icon on the center console screen, scroll down to find the 'Door Lock Settings' option. Here you'll see a 'Auto Lock While Driving' switch – just turn it on. Every time the speed exceeds 20 km/h, the doors will automatically lock, which feels reassuring. By the way, some older models may require a system update at the dealership to activate this. If you can't find the option, check the owner's manual – page 53 specifically explains this feature. It's good practice to regularly test this function, as driving safety is paramount.
I've taught quite a few people to set this up, mainly through the central control menu. After starting the car, locate the vehicle settings menu and select the door lock control option to find the auto-locking switch. Special attention is needed here - the interface layout may vary between different model years of the Trumpchi GS4. For vehicles manufactured after 2022, it's located in the secondary menu of vehicle settings. Once activated, the doors will automatically lock when the speed reaches 15-20 km/h. A reminder: if your infotainment system is the basic version, you might need to visit a 4S shop for computer activation. If you notice any abnormalities during daily use, it's best to check the fuses or door sensors. This feature is particularly useful for owners with children.
