How to set the door closing on a Mini Countryman

Model: Mini Mini R60, Countryman1 - Years 2010-2016
Part: Key

Let's see how to set the door locking on a Mini Countryman. Keep in mind that the procedure may vary slightly depending on the year of production of the vehicle, although the basic principle is similar. Turn on the instrument panel, look for the "menu" button and use the arrow keys to navigate to "settings". Within this menu we will find a section called "vehicle" where we will find "doors". Within this submenu we select "automatic door locking". As shown in the video, some Minis offer different choices: "off" deactivated, "on (with clock icon)" activates after a certain time; "on with arrow icon" activates automatically when the car exceeds 20 km/h. Once the desired mode is selected, confirm the setting by pressing "ok", turn off the car and open and close the door.
