Approach Lighting

Have had my car a bit over a week now and love it. This is my first EV, no issues so far and still learning things. One thing I remember seeing on the website was how the car would “wake up” on your approach. The tail lights would do their thing, the door lighting would come on and the seats would adjust to the driver. My car does all this but only when I actually touch the door handle, not as I approach. Tried it with all 3 keys, same thing. Am I doing something wrong or I don’t have something set right? Will this only happen when phone as key is ready? Thoughts?

welcome!!

I think this is a phone as a key thing. If you use the unlock button on the (entirely fugly) key it’ll do the light dance for you. But without that the car doesn’t know to unlock and dance until you touch the handle.

We don't even have those names attached to configurations, despite being in the countries where they're located (i.e. we don't get a "London" config in the UK, you select the items individually)!
