I'm after a bit of a steer as to how to set the interior lights to come on with opening of the car.
When I took delivery this is how they were set up, but something has happened recently that now means the interior lights and puddle lamps do not come on when engine is turned off or doors unlocked.

I've been right through all the menus and nothing jumps out at me as a control for these settings.

Any pointers gladly received.

You just press in the middle where the light is with the door open as far as I know.

Touch the centre interior light and hold this position until the light flashes and then release, a message will then appear (between the rev. counter and speedometer) to confirm whether "interior lights auto" is switched on or off.

Many thanks to those that responded, the press and hold the centre light did the trick.
