How to Set Up the Automatic Door Lock for the 10th Generation Accord?
2 Answers
The automatic door lock function for the 10th Generation Accord requires a program update at a Honda 4S dealership to activate. Some vehicles have certain features hidden by the manufacturer at the factory to differentiate between high, mid, and low trim levels. After the owner unlocks these hidden features, they can use them normally. The automatic door lock function automatically locks the doors when the car is in motion, preventing accidental opening by passengers. The 10th Generation Accord has body dimensions of 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. It is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine.
I remember when I first started driving the 10th-generation Accord, I was always worried about the doors not being locked properly, especially on the highway. To set up the auto-lock feature, I turned the key to the ON position without starting the engine, then found the settings menu on the center display, clicked on the vehicle option, went into the door lock settings, and turned on the auto-lock switch. Once done, the doors automatically lock when the speed exceeds around 20km/h, which gives me more peace of mind while driving without the distraction of manual operation. It's recommended to periodically check if the feature is enabled, as software updates might reset it. An extra tip: if you can't find the option in the settings menu, you can refer to the owner's manual or YouTube tutorials—they're simple steps and not complicated. Safety first, especially for night driving, this feature really comes in handy.
