What is that on? AU?

My Megane unlocks all doors, then automatically locks all doors when you
go over 10 kph. Wife's Golf unlocks drivers door with one press of
remote, then all other doors with two presses of remote - doesn't look
doors when driving.

I thought it was strange since the light button is right next to the
central lock button

no light on the remote, interior lights come on as soon as you unlock
the doors and go off once you lock them

No
