How to Set the Lock Horn for Lavida?
2 Answers
To set the lock horn for Lavida, first press the brake pedal of the Lavida, place the gear shift lever in the P position, then release the brake pedal, press the one-touch start button of the SAIC Lavida twice in a row, close all four doors, and hold the lock button on the driver's door for more than 10 seconds to complete the lock horn setting. Information about car horns is as follows: 1. The horn is the audio signal device of the car, used to warn pedestrians and alert other vehicles to ensure traffic safety, as well as to urge movement and transmit signals. 2. How the horn works: When the horn button on the steering wheel or other locations is pressed, current from the battery flows through the circuit to the electromagnetic coil of the horn relay. The electromagnetic coil attracts the moving contact switch of the relay to close, allowing current to flow to the horn. The current causes the internal electromagnet of the horn to work, thereby vibrating the diaphragm to produce sound.
Over the years of driving my Volkswagen Lavida, setting the lock beep has been quite straightforward. First, make sure the car is powered on but not started—just press the start button without stepping on the brake, so the dashboard lights up. Then, use the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to navigate to the vehicle settings menu, find the 'Comfort Functions' option, and select 'Central Locking.' Inside, there's a 'Lock Confirmation Tone' toggle—press OK to turn it on or off. I find this feature incredibly handy, especially in parking lots, where hearing the beep confirms the car is locked, saving me from unnecessary worry. A quick note: if your Lavida is a newer model with a touchscreen, the setting might be in the multimedia system, following a similar path. And remember, avoid fiddling with settings while driving on the highway!
