Among the hidden functions of the Wildlander, only three are practically meaningful. Here are the setup methods for these three hidden functions: 1. Press and hold the lock button on the key to automatically roll up the windows, and press and hold the unlock button to automatically roll down the windows (including the sunroof). 2. Automatically unlock the doors when shifting to P gear, but does not support automatically locking the doors when shifting to D gear. 3. The number of times the turn signal flashes when lightly pushing the turn signal lever defaults to 3 times, but can be changed to 7 times. Here is an introduction to the Wildlander: 1. The Wildlander is the fourth member of the TNGA product family, following the eighth-generation Camry, C-HR, and the all-new Levin, and it is also the first TNGA mid-size SUV model under GAC Toyota. 2. On February 28, 2020, the all-new SUV model under GAC Toyota—the Wildlander—was officially launched. The new car is built on the TNGA-K platform and will be available in four models: the Leading Edition, Luxury Edition, Technology Edition, and Noble Edition.

Previously, while driving the Wildlander, I discovered several practical hidden function settings: ① Hold the unlock button on the key for 4 seconds to lower all four windows simultaneously (a great feature for summer heat dissipation); ② After ignition, press the brake twice and hold the lock button for 5 seconds to activate automatic door locking while driving; ③ Check the 'Follow Me Home' headlight delay option in the vehicle settings under 'Vehicle Personalization' on the infotainment system; ④ In P mode, press the accelerator twice and then pull the handbrake to enter the transmission maintenance mode; ⑤ The right mirror tilt-down function during reverse can be enabled in the vehicle settings on the central control screen. These settings are scattered across different menu levels, so it's recommended to refer to page 83 of the manual for operation.

The hidden features of the Wildlander are mainly accessed through combination operations: pressing the steering wheel menu button and Bluetooth button simultaneously for 3 seconds enters the engineering mode to adjust the dashboard theme; pressing the button on top of the wiper lever three times activates the windshield washer fluid level check; the most practical feature is the remote key window control—press the unlock button twice and hold the third press to automatically lower all four windows. To set the lock confirmation sound, you need to visit a 4S shop for a computer flash, as it cannot be done manually. Additionally, after upgrading the infotainment system, some function locations may change. For example, the auto start-stop memory function is now hidden in the secondary driving assistance menu on the central console.

Teach you three commonly used hidden settings: 1. Automatic headlight sensitivity adjustment (Center console settings → Lights → Sensitivity slider); 2. Modify the air conditioning linkage defogging logic (Press and hold the defog button + recirculation button on the air conditioning panel to enter setup mode); 3. Emergency brake hazard light activation (Press the hazard light switch five times while stepping on the brake). The third one is especially useful—automatic hazard lights during hard braking can effectively prevent rear-end collisions. Some models can also achieve automatic mirror folding when locking the car by installing an additional module via the OBD port, with a DIY cost of less than 200 yuan.
