How to Set Up Automatic Locking for Tayron?

[DeZachary]

Automatic locking function needs to be set in the central control screen. Click on the door and window switch settings in the car settings, and check the box in front of the function. Generally, the car will automatically lock when the speed reaches 10km/h to 20km/h.

I remember the first thing I did after buying the Tayron was setting up the auto-locking feature, which is especially important for families with kids. Just find the vehicle settings icon on the center console screen, tap into it, select the external menu, and you'll see the door lock options. Simply turn on the auto-locking function there. The doors automatically lock when the speed reaches around 15 km/h, and they can't be pushed open, saving you the hassle of manually pressing the button each time. I also took the opportunity to set up the automatic window closing on rainy days and the mirror dipping in reverse—these can be adjusted in the same menu. A special reminder: if you find the doors didn't automatically unlock after turning off the engine, check the settings to see if 'Parking Unlock' is enabled.

Setting up auto-locking is actually super simple: Just sit in the car without starting the engine, just power it on. Press the CAR button on the center console to enter settings, select the doors/windows option, and the third one is the auto-lock switch. After enabling it, you can set the speed threshold - I recommend using 20 km/h as the trigger point for urban driving safety. While you're at it, check the door unlocking logic too; I prefer setting it to unlock only the driver's door with the key fob to prevent random door pulling. If you can't find the menu location, check page 89 of the user manual for illustrated instructions. After setup, it's best to test it on the road - when you hear a 'click' at the set speed, that means it's working.

Three steps to set up auto-locking: With the vehicle powered on, press the menu button below the center display, enter vehicle settings and select doors/windows, then toggle the auto-lock switch to ON position. Default activation speed is 15 km/h, but you can adjust it to 10 km/h for quicker response. After setup, remember to enable 'Emergency Braking Auto-Unlock' – it automatically unlocks doors during hard braking for easier escape. My Tayron feels worry-free on highways with this feature; even forgetting to lock doors at rest stops isn't an issue. Note: If your infotainment system has been upgraded, parameter reconfiguration might be required.

The automatic locking feature of the Tayron can be configured in the vehicle settings. It's recommended to place the key in the induction area to power on, then navigate to the 'Vehicle Functions' section in the central control menu and locate the 'Door/Window Open/Close' option. In addition to enabling automatic locking, it's advisable to set a speed limit simultaneously. I prefer it to trigger at 30 km/h, which is more reasonable for long-distance highway driving. The same menu also allows you to set the 'Follow Me Home' lighting function, which is extremely useful at night. After setup, the doors will automatically lock when passing through toll stations, eliminating worries about children playing with door handles in the back seat during trips. In case of occasional malfunctions, a 10-second long press on the lock button can reset the system.

The auto-locking setting is located in the vehicle's external configuration menu. After powering on, select the central control settings icon, switch to the door lock section, and toggle the switch. It's recommended to bind it to trigger at 20 km/h, which avoids frequent unlocking during traffic jams. I prefer to enable the auto-unlock when parked feature simultaneously—unlocking when shifting to P gear makes exiting the vehicle convenient. By the way, the Tiguan's hands-free trunk opening function is also set in the same menu, with three adjustable sensitivity levels for the kick-to-open feature. After setup, test it by driving a couple of laps for reliability, and listen for the soft 'click' sound when locking.
