It's a warning that if you exit the vehicle and lock the car anybody still inside will be trapped as the interior door handles won't work.
It's pretty stupid because SAFELOCK doesn't mean anything unless it's buried in the manual somewhere but from what I remember it's not called SAFELOCK in the manual anyway it's just a description of what happens.

As above, anyone left inside is trapped with no way out (unless they can crawl into the boot and operate the little switch thing to get the tailgate open, but they would not know this). If you want to let them exit you need to second press the key to turn the deadlocks off

Your not wrong, it's as clear as mud.
When I first got my brand new mk2 leon I though it was some sort of error message.
Even the manual is vague on it.
And most dealers don't seem to know what it means either, seem to recall another member mention that their dealer though it ment push down clutch to start car
Press the key once it's like a deadlock, not possible to open from inside or outside therfore no good if you leave anyone locked in.
Press twice and the door can be opened from inside but not outside. If say you left your kids in the car, they'd be safe from intruders but could get out in an emergency.
Safelock, rtfm!

yeah its a bit mad, I'm sure than on the mk1 it was single press for normal lock and second press for deadlock.
