Default Euro Style front door lock - different locking modes?

Hi all
M-I-L has recently moved into a new house with a Euro-style lock
on the front door. It seems to only work in a 'latch' mode, and she is
worried that if she forgets a key when in the garden and the door
shuts, she will be locked out. Is this way of operation an intrinsic
part of the lock style, or is it a 'mode setting' that I can somehow
change - a bit like a 'child lock' on a car door?

Thanks
J^n
