Question Auto-Start Dashcam in US 2021 Models

Anyone know if there's a setting to start the built in MB dashcam automatically? I see two options on my GLC – start recording or loop recording. If you turn the car off it says "cancelled recording" and you have to manually activate it again upon restarting the car.

If this is all that's possible the dashcam feature ($100) is totally useless.

Thanks @Eaton – could you please confirm which region / model / year that manual page is from? I searched for "Automatic Video Recording" in the manual for my US-region 2021 GLC series and no cigar.

This isn't in the GLC manual, but it's the same app across all cars.
Note the line about not available in all countries. If you don't see it, that is probably why (which is stupid!)
