New S5 owner here, and lots of 'how do I' questions. Hopefully some of the gurus here will be kind enough to answer.

The easy one first - how do I get it to switch the interior lights on when I open the door? I’ve been through all the menu options on the screen, so I’m guessing there’s a switch somewhere.

There are lots of things that I think probably can’t be done. Like making the radio cycle just between my favourite stations.

Also is there any way to make the voice recognition work in a remotely useful manner?

How about making the 360° cameras a bit better in low light?
 
I tried the switch just above my head and it turned out to be some sort of emergency call button that you can’t cancel when you realise that it’s not the button you meant to press.

Here you go, these pages are taken from the manual.

Thanks so much. That worked really nicely. I guess I’ll have to read the 300 page manual as well as the quick start guide.
Don’t forget, the manual is not exclusive to the U.K. so some items ( like the sun roof button ) will NOT be applicable 👍.
