How to set the horn sound when locking the Mazda6?
2 Answers
The method to set the horn sound when locking the Mazda6 is: select the lock option in the vehicle's onboard computer settings, and click the lock 'on' icon to activate the horn sound function when locking. Taking the 2021 Mazda CX-4 2.0L Automatic Two-Wheel Drive Blue Sky Youth Edition as an example, this car belongs to the compact SUV category, with body dimensions of 4637mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1524mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. This model is equipped with a 2.0L inline four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 116kW and a maximum torque of 202Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, and a top speed of 192km/h.
I'm a car enthusiast and have owned several Mazda6s. Setting the horn beep when locking the car is quite simple. Sit in the driver's seat without starting the engine, turn the key to the ACC position (power on but engine off). Hold down both the lock and unlock buttons on the remote key for about 10 seconds until you hear a beep confirming the setting – press again to toggle between horn sound on/off. Note that button combinations may vary by model year (e.g., 2008 vs. 2015), so check your owner’s manual. The locking horn is useful as it confirms secure locking, especially in crowded areas to deter theft. If the horn doesn’t sound, don’t panic—it could be a dead key battery or software update needed; try replacing the battery first. The whole process takes 1-2 minutes. I use this feature regularly when parking—it’s convenient and adds security. Be mindful of noise in residential areas; some newer models allow light flashes without horn sounds.
