Place the gear in the P position, turn the key to the ON position, close all four doors, and press the lock button. You will see the hazard indicator lights on the dashboard flash twice. Below is some related information about automatic locking: 1. Function of automatic locking: The automatic locking function is designed for theft prevention. It quickly locks the doors after driving to prevent door pull robberies during traffic jams or at red lights, providing a certain level of security. 2. Pros and cons of automatic locking: Pros - It protects passengers, especially children, by preventing young children from opening the door handles while the car is moving. Cons - It may affect escape in emergencies.
I particularly love the auto-lock feature, which is especially convenient when going out with kids. Most cars have similar setup methods: first locate the vehicle settings menu from the steering wheel or center console, then use the knob or touchscreen to navigate to the door lock settings. Auto-lock typically offers several modes: locking automatically when speed exceeds 15 km/h, unlocking when shifting to P gear, or auto-locking when the engine is off and the key leaves the vehicle. I discovered a handy tip during setup: if you want the side mirrors to fold automatically, remember to enable the lock linkage option simultaneously. Some older models require holding the lock button on the key fob for 5 seconds to activate this function, but newer vehicles can generally configure it directly through the center display.
