Turned on some things by accident!

I've activated a few features and I don't know how to switch them off - would be grateful if anyone can assist (spent loads of time trying to figure out how to do it):
  1. When I come to a standstill at traffic lights, the camera is activated - it only started doing this after I fiddled with something.
  2. When I exit / enter the vehicle and start / stop the ignition, the drivers seat moves backwards and the steering hweel moves. I think it's called somehting like convinience entry? It's a bit fo a pain now.
  3. Can you turn the gesture control off? Passengers have a tendancy to wave their arms about and this triggers it.

Many thansk for any insight!

1) Sometimes when I get too close to another vehicle, the 360 degree cameras turn on. Try not to tailgate at a stop light and see if that resolves your problem;
2) Easy Entry is a feature that can be accessed in the Comfort Menu. You can control whether only the steering wheel moves, only the seat, both, or neither.
3) I don't have gesture control so someone else should be able to chime in.

Thanks for the reply - the camera is activated at the lights when I am first in the queue and nothing else in front. I figured out the easy entry setting, so now I have only the wheel moving.

Camera turning on when you are first in line at the light is actually a smart feature of the car. Idea being sometimes you cannot see the light and have to bend to look through the windshield to check if it turned green. Now you dont have to.

I think the traffic light view is under Augmented Reality section in the Sat nav settings, I think its called Traffic Light Assist or something similar.
For the gesture I do remember seeing the settings but can't remember exactly - maybe try asking MBUX ?

Traffic light assist can be turned off in settings but helps when you are first in line at traffic lights and cannot see lights through window.
