How to lock the car automatically?

For the life of me I can't figure if that's an actual feature for the Eclipse Cross because I can't find it in the owner's manual. Maybe there's some option in the infotainment system, but I don't know.

I know the FAST keys have to programmed and set up for an ID, so perhaps that's something that's being overlooked? From looking through the owners manual I see that unlocking and locking the car can be done through proximity alone, but I see no indication of how to set that up.

Yes, it is missing. I was used to it from Renault Megane. Talking to a dealer at Renault mentioned that Renault Kadjar also was missing this at the beginning because it was based on Nissan Qashkai but after some kind of update it was introduced. So this could happen here also.
I am also used to a sensor button on the door - not the rubbery thing here. But everything else is amazing!!!

Too bad car makers like this haven't looked into NFC tech as yet, already its being implemented into homes and I can't imagine that being difficult to do on cars especially when car makers get this stuff from 3rd party companies that supply to a range of car makers.

I am a new Eclipse owner and believe that if you unlock the car and then move away without opening any doors it does re-lock after a short time. However, if you have opened a door then close and walk away it does not lock. Now I have to go and try that out to see if it works!
