    Central locking Question

    I read in the owners manual that the doors should lock when 15kph is reached. I'm pretty sure this used to happen but now doesn't. Is there some way to turn this feature on and off ? I can't seem to find the answer in the owners manual.

    You do it in the dashboard display. Just go into the settings and you will find the appropriate box to tick.
    I hate it I turned mine off because the doors don't unlock until you take the key out of the ignition or you are stopped and in neutral and turn your head to the right and poke your tongue out of your left nostril and have Abba playing on the radio or something similar.

    I was waiting for someone to say that... Or to pull the handle twice! Sarge it's in Maxidot in some awfully hard to find setting. I like mine because it scares people who haven't been in the car when we drive .

    i'm yet to find it - i want mine enabled. its disabled now.
    for some reason i thought the dealer had to activate it.

    i should go through my maxidot's menus again.

    Mine is also disabled but i see it as a benefit to lock all doors - so when someone finds how can they provide brief details on how.
