Double Locking - Has my Fiesta got it?

I've just got an 04 Fiesta Zetec. The handbook talks about a locking and double locking (might be called dead locking).

Double locking is achieved by twisting the key one way then the other within 2 secs. This should cause double locking and

the indicators should flash. This doesn't happen! However I know that the handbook often describes features that aren't on all models

so my double locking might not be broken but just not fitted.

Does anyone know some way of telling if double locking is fitted to this year/model.?

    I think all mk6 fiestas have double locking. Pressing the lock button twice within 3 seconds activates the double locking.

    On some models press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons for 4 seconds reprogrammes the unlocking functions and the indicators should flash twice to confirm this.
