Acura TLX Walk Away Auto Lock 2022 Sedan Specification

The 2022 Acura TLX sedan is equipped with an advanced Walk Away Auto Lock system, designed to enhance vehicle security and user convenience. This feature automatically locks the vehicle doors as the driver walks away, eliminating the need to manually secure the car. Utilizing the key fob's proximity sensor, the system detects when the key is at a distance of approximately 2.5 meters (8 feet) from the vehicle. Once this threshold is crossed, the system engages and locks all doors within a few seconds, provided that no doors or the trunk are open.

The Walk Away Auto Lock can be customized through the Acura TLX's infotainment system, allowing drivers to adjust the settings according to their preferences. The system can be activated or deactivated, and the delay before locking can be modified. Furthermore, the feature integrates seamlessly with the vehicle's smart entry system, ensuring a smooth and intuitive user experience. In instances where the driver returns to the vehicle within the detection range, the system will automatically disengage, allowing for immediate access without the need to press any buttons on the key fob.

This technology not only bolsters security by preventing unauthorized access but also adds a layer of convenience for the driver, particularly in situations where manually locking the vehicle might be cumbersome. The 2022 Acura TLX’s Walk Away Auto Lock system exemplifies the brand's commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology to enhance user safety and convenience.
