Hi,

Does anyone have any idea how to reduce or change the distance away from the car that the car with 'Auto lock'?

The scenario that I'm trying to solve is this:

My wife accidentally forgot to lock the car last night and we keep our keys in a cupboard under the stairs, which is a fair distance away from the car ( 3-4 metres), however, that's still too close to the car as the car remained unlocked overnight.

Any ideas how to disable or reduce the distance required to autolock the car?

Cheers!

It does not auto lock after exiting the vehicle.
However, if the car is locked and you unlock it but dont open one of the doors to enter, itvwill tgen relock itselfcafter 30 seconds.

Thanks for the reply.

So are you saying that if I forget to lock the car it'll stay unlocked forever?

Correct. That’s why I have my mirrors on the same setting as ‘david sunderland’ above so I can see if the car is locked or not without having to go out to it.

Thanks for the info.

Seems odd that there wouldn't be a way to auto lock the car after x seconds or something?

But thanks for the clarification.

See if this helps you ! The operating distance mentioned is only 80cm (31,5“). It would also appear that the owner is responsible to check that the Doors are Locked. I also as mentioned use the Closing Mirror action as an Indicator that the Doors are Closed. The exception is that in the winter here we keep ours open due to the snow, ice or frost buildups which can damage the Mirrors when closing and it appears now even the UK is suffering with this stuff - Dave ;)
