Need to Lock Car to Turn Off Screen and Lighting?

My parents recently got a new 2022 C300. They usually just walk away when the car is in the garage without locking it however with this car it seems the center console screen and ambient lights stay on until you lock the car. I tried finding a setting but couldn't to have them turn off automatically after some time. Is this something required with this car?

Thanks.

I've also noticed this and lock my car in the garage now! I haven't found any settings to adjust it, and the light delays don't affect them.

If you don't lock the car, the screen and ambient lights will turn off eventually (~30 min I noticed).

Same here, I never lock my car in the garage. Sometimes I go in there and my ambient lighting is on and other times not. I have set the delay settings, and have not had a chance to trouble shoot how long they stay on, locked vs unlocked etc.

Has anyone received an update to fix this? Ambient lighting does not follow designated delay settings when unlocked. Mine stays on for at least 30 minutes when unlocked in the garage.

I saw this answer on a Facebook group, I don’t know if it helps since I don’t have the car yet

Those are the settings that don't work.
