I believe that is a setting for on approach in the config. It may operate on detecting the FOB (otherwise they would go down every time someone walked by) so also make sure there isn’t something interfering with that signal in the same pocket such as a cell phone.

I did not change any settings always have the key in the right front pocket of my Levi's and cell phone is on my left side as usual. One day it was auto then the next it stopped?

Even without changing the setting I would still check it, there are plenty of reports of settings sometimes resetting.

Check pg 115 of the manual.
