I keep reading on various posts here about double locking but what exactly is so "double" about it?

I've gone through the owner's manual and the service manual but can't find anything.

Thanks!

depending on the year , a single fob press locks the doors and a double press also activates the interior passive alarm and the doors cant be opened from he inside, this is called superlock..

many members aren't aware of this so tend to only do a single lock..

with an iidtool you can program the fob to superlock with a single press. ... - .- -.

I guess it depends on MY etc but on MY18 L405

A single lock is a must if you have a dog or people in the car. So the alarm isn't activated by internal movement and in an emergency occupants can open the locked doors from inside.

Double lock occupants cant get out, and alarm will sound by internal movement. 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

Interesting feature,

does any of you know if the one press do not activate de full alarm system or just de interior sensors?

It could be great for long periods when you don´t drive the car but it is in save place (home garage) to ne able to completely disable de alarm system

If it's in a safe place, leave it unlocked and disconnect the battery...  Pete

I wonder what the use case is for leaving animals or people locked in the car but with the alarm off??

Cool. I’ve learned something.

And just to add, the alarm isn’t totally disconnected on a single lock, the tilt sensor will still trigger it. If you want it totally deactivated, don’t lock it.
