How to Set Up Automatic Door Lock for Classic Focus?
2 Answers
First, turn on the key to put the car in the ON position, but do not start the engine. Then, press and hold the lock button for about 10 seconds. You will hear a beep sound inside the car or see the lights flash twice, indicating that the automatic door lock function has been successfully set up. The purpose of this function is anti-theft. It ensures that the doors lock quickly after driving, preventing potential door-pulling robberies during traffic jams or at red lights, thereby providing a certain level of security.
Setting up auto-lock for the classic Focus is quite straightforward. After getting in the car, don't start the engine yet—just turn the key to the ACC position. Then check the control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel or the central console menu, where there's usually a settings option. Enter the vehicle settings interface, locate the locking-related section, select the auto-lock feature, and turn it on—that's all it takes. The doors will automatically lock when the speed exceeds 20km/h, which is a thoughtful design, especially when traveling with kids—no worries about them opening doors unexpectedly. If you can't find it, refer to the owner's manual or search online for video tutorials specific to your model and year to avoid unnecessary trips to the repair shop. It's recommended to test the setup afterward to ensure reliability and driving convenience.
