Activate the central locking switch on the dashboard? That's the closed padlock symbol, it locks all doors and retracts the step on our van being a coach build. Regards

Yes that's how we do it on our Sussex which is a Warwick in disguise.

Yep use button on dash. You don’t need to unlock it to get out in emergency but no one can get in from outside

With this method, you should still be able to exit the van by simply operating the handle on the habitation door, especially in an emergency? However be mindful that if you close the door from the outside, you may not be able to get back inside due to the cab doors remaining locked so best to open all doors from the dashboard. Recall this happened to us once but can't remember the reason why.
