Lock Presetting lets you request the lock while another door or the tailgate is still open, and the CR-V completes the lock when the final opening closes.
Check that your vehicle has it.
Verified for 2024–2025 U.S.-market CR-V models. The remote Lock-button method is the broadest; door sensors and tailgate lock controls require the corresponding equipment.
