Locking; Master Locks - Aston Martin Vantage S 2016 Owner's Manual

Locking

If passengers are to stay in the vehicle after it has been locked,
reduced guard must be set to ON before locking. This will let a
passenger open a door from inside the vehicle.
Make sure that all the doors, the boot lid and the bonnet are closed
(the vehicle will not lock if a door is left open). Stand within 5 m of
the vehicle, point the vehicle key towards the vehicle and press the
LOCK button once to lock the doors, disable the boot lid and fuel flap
release switches and arm the security system. The direction indicators
will flash once as the security system is armed .
The driver's seat and both door rear view mirror positions are
memorised and will be recalled the next time the vehicle is opened
using the same vehicle key.

handle will centrally unlock the doors, a second pull of the door
handle will open that door.
The master lock switch will operate for seven minutes after the
vehicle key has been removed from the ignition control, if the vehicle
is not locked using the vehicle key.

from the outside.
Operation of the master lock switch will override automatic lock
