How to Set Up Automatic Locking for a Sedan?

Shift the gear to the P position, turn the key to the ON position, close the car door, and hold down the lock button (for 6 seconds). When the security indicator flashes twice and the arrow indicator flashes once, the automatic locking function is successfully set. Here is some information about the automatic speed-sensing locking feature: 1. Automatic speed-sensing locking is an electronic device that automatically engages the door locks when the vehicle reaches a preset speed, preventing accidental opening of the doors. 2. When the vehicle reaches a preset speed, the locks automatically engage. The preset speed is usually set by the manufacturer, typically between 10-20 km/h.
Setting up automatic car locking is actually quite easy. I often use this feature to enhance security, especially to prevent accidental door openings when parked or driving at high speeds. The specific steps vary by model, but most modern cars handle it through the central control settings menu. After starting the vehicle, use the steering wheel buttons to navigate to the vehicle settings, look for the "Door Locks" or "Security" option, and enable "Automatic Locking." Some brands like Toyota allow activation by holding down the unlock button on the remote key for a few seconds until a confirmation sound is heard. Remember to check the manual, as details differ for each car. After setup, test if it works—for example, doors should automatically lock when shifting gears and reaching 20 km/h. If it fails, the battery might be weak or settings weren’t saved; try restarting the car system. This feature is particularly useful for urban driving, offering great peace of mind against theft.
