Volvo XC90 auto-lock setting method: 1. Turn on the car's ignition without starting the engine; 2. Hold down the car's lock button for about ten seconds until you hear a beep or see the hazard lights flash twice, indicating that the auto-lock setting is complete. Then, turn off the power. The Volvo XC90 is positioned as a mid-to-large-sized SUV, with body dimensions of 4950mm in length, 1958mm in width, and 1776mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2984mm. In terms of power, the Volvo XC90 is equipped with a T6 engine that uses both a supercharger and a turbocharger, achieving a maximum power output of 225kw through dual-charging.

I've always been a fan of setting up the auto-lock feature as it adds peace of mind to daily driving. For the Volvo XC90, the setup process is straightforward: First, sit in the driver's seat and start the vehicle, letting it idle. Then, look at the central touchscreen infotainment system—commonly called the Sensus system. Tap the small house icon in the lower-left corner of the screen to access the main menu, find the "Settings" option, and click into it. Inside, select "Vehicle Settings," then locate the "Lock Settings" or a similar label. Enable the "Auto-Lock" feature, and you may also need to set the trigger speed, which defaults to around 20 km/h for automatic door locking. Once done, don’t forget to test it: Drive the car at low speed to see if the doors lock automatically. I recommend checking this setting periodically, especially after system updates, as it might reset. Auto-lock not only prevents accidental door openings but also enhances anti-theft security, particularly useful when parking in the city. The whole process takes less than a minute but significantly boosts your sense of safety.

As a parent, I can say this: safety always comes first, and the auto-locking feature on the Volvo XC90 has been a real lifesaver. Setting it up is straightforward. You need to sit in the driver's seat, start the engine but don't drive. Navigate to the settings via the central touchscreen—it's at the bottom of the screen. Tap into the 'Main Menu,' then select the 'My Car' section. Scroll down to find the 'Locking Functions' option, where you can enable 'Auto Lock.' During the process, the screen will prompt you to set the speed trigger point, usually set to lock the doors at speeds above 15 km/h. After setting it up, when I take the kids out, I always remember to test it at low speed: gently accelerate, and when you hear a 'click,' it means the doors are locked. This feature has many benefits—it reduces the risk of children accidentally opening doors and also helps prevent theft. Just remember to keep the software updated, as some settings might be lost after an update. Taking a few minutes to set it up before daily use gives the whole family peace of mind.

Setting up the automatic locking for the Volvo XC90 is straightforward: Start the engine after getting in the car. On the touchscreen's main interface, tap the "Settings" icon to enter the vehicle control section. Select "Door Locks," then enable the automatic locking option. By default, the locks engage when the speed exceeds 15 km/h, with no additional confirmation steps needed. The entire process takes just about two seconds. Remember to test the feature at low speed after saving the settings to ensure it works properly.
