Sorry if this is a dumb question or was already asked before.

I've got a 21 Life Pro Performance and was wondering if there is a setting that prevents the vehicle from shutting down itself once I open the driver door and exit the vehicle (even if the key is still in the car). I am imagining situations where I need to quickly stop by the road to get something while there are passengers waiting in the car. Having the air con and music suddenly switched off would be inconvenient?

Press the Start button on the steering column before you get out? (after you’ve seen the “goodbye” screen)

Timley this I hit a problem Sunday being recovered onto a flatbed - put the car in neutral got out ready for him to pull it on and the car shut down going back into park. Didn’t have time to figure it out for safety concerns so he broke their procedures letting me stay in the car.

I’ve seen a video where someone puts a heavy duty balloon thing (think it’s used for lifting furniture) in between foam and sensor under the seat :)

Perhaps a bucket of tools would work well too!
