How to Set Up Auto-Locking for Cars?
2 Answers
For automatic transmission vehicles, the method to set up auto-locking is: 1. Shift to the P position, then turn the key to the ON position; 2. Close all doors, press and hold the lock button for about 6 seconds until the hazard warning lights on the dashboard flash twice, indicating the setup is complete. For manual transmission vehicles, the method is: 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, within 20 seconds press and hold the electric door lock switch to LOCK for 5 seconds. If the operation is successful, the hazard warning lights will flash twice for activation and once for deactivation. The purpose of the auto-locking function is anti-theft, allowing the doors to lock quickly after driving starts, preventing incidents like door-pull robberies during traffic jams or at traffic lights, thereby providing a certain level of security.
I've looked up some information online and found that setting up the auto-lock feature for cars is actually quite simple. The main method is through the vehicle's central control screen: first, start the engine or turn on the power, then open the 'Settings' menu, find the 'Vehicle Settings' or 'Security Settings' submenu, where there's an 'Auto Door Lock' switch—just tap to turn it on. Many cars default to auto-locking when the speed reaches 15-20 km/h, which is quite convenient. If you can't find the option, you can check the user manual or tips shared on car enthusiast forums. After enabling this feature, you no longer need to manually lock the doors while driving, which not only prevents theft but also enhances driving safety, especially in urban areas where it can prevent children from accidentally opening the doors. I recommend checking the car lock system every six months to ensure it functions properly.
