How to Set the Lock Sound for Sagitar?

You can use the remote key to activate the lock horn sound. Simultaneously press the unlock and lock buttons for 3 seconds until the light flashes, which will make the car flash lights only without sounding the horn. Press both the lock and unlock buttons for 3 seconds until the light flashes to restore the original setting. Find the sound option in the settings, then tap on the screen lock sound, and uncheck the option to play sound when locking and unlocking the screen.
I just figured out how to set the locking beep sound on my Sagitar recently, and it can actually be done through the central control screen. First, start the vehicle but don't drive it, then tap the vehicle settings icon on the central control. Select the external lighting menu, where you'll find a switch option for the locking beep sound. After turning it on, you'll hear a beep when locking the car, which is especially convenient for locating your vehicle in parking lots. If you can't find this option in the menu, it might be due to different vehicle configurations—some lower trim versions may require a visit to the dealership to unlock this hidden feature. Now, hearing the confirmation sound every time I lock the car gives me peace of mind, especially in dimly lit places like underground parking lots. Also, the manual mentions that holding down the lock button on the key activates a security feature, but that's unrelated to the beep sound setting.
I also looked into this a couple days ago, actually the lock confirmation sound settings are quite similar across Volkswagen models. After sitting in the driver's seat, power on the electronics without starting the engine. Locate the CAR button on the infotainment screen, go to vehicle settings then door/window controls - at the bottom you'll find the lock confirmation sound toggle. When enabled, you'll hear a short beep when locking (two beeps for unlocking). Note this is different from the anti-theft alarm, it's just an acknowledgement sound. If the option isn't there, check if your infotainment system needs a software update. You can adjust the volume level in sound settings if the beep is too loud - medium setting works perfectly for being audible without disturbing others.
It's quite simple. Look near the light control area on the left side of the steering wheel, but it's best to set it up using the central control screen. After entering the vehicle settings menu, select external lighting and turn on the sound feedback. The new Sagitar model now lights up and makes a sound when locking, which is much more intuitive than the previous simple flashing lights. After setting it up, it's recommended to test it. Press the lock button on the key from about five meters away, and you should hear a brief beep. If there's no response, the function might be turned off by default at the factory. It's advisable to use this feature in rainy weather, as it's more reliable than just checking the folding mirrors.
