Default Radio Not Turning Off when Stopping Engine

Searched the Owner's Manual and Multimedia Manual for a solution, I do not finding what I need.
Took the 2023 RX350h to local body shop to address a fender dent.
Now, when I press the power button to turn off the vehicle, the radio does not power down (it stays on playing the selected radio station)..

Before sending the vehicle to the body shop, I'm sure the radio always powered down when I turned off the vehicle.
Didn't recognize anything in the Multimedia screen settings that makes this operational change to the radio operation. What am I missing ?
Any assistance and guidance greatly appreciated, DEL92

I don’t remember how I did it but there is a setting. It allows the radio to stay on ( as well as your phone over the radio speaker) until you open the door. That is how I preferred it

Does it turn off when the driver's door is opened?

If so, then the ACC Customize is the setting to turn that off, if you don't like it. I prefer it, myself.

It's the ACC setting, assuming the radio turns off when you open the driver's door. You never mentioned when the radio does turn off for you so we can't be 100% sure.

Want to say thank you to Ascho, WellsB, and Urlik for your timely responses.
yes, it was the ACC setting customization. In hindsight, I can understand why you would want to have the multimedia center remain operating after you stop the car and preventing an interruption to a phone call or something other.
I just wish people servicing the vehicle wouldn't muck around with the customers existing settings unless they put it back the way they found it.
Cheers, DEL92

Wow, those are long videos! Melissa packs a lot of information into her videos. I found the ACC info you referred to at the 2 hr 25 min point. Learned a lot more than I was getting from the Lexus manuals. Just wish the videos were broken down into smaller segments.
Cheers,

Open the video in YouTube and look in the description for the index to links for each individual section so you can go right to that.

Interesting. It starts at 1 hour 40 minutes and 21 seconds for me, as I mentioned above. As Urlick noted though, there is an index in the description.

WellsB & Urlik, thank you for pointing out the correct position in the timeline. Sometimes it's a pain being a mere mortal. I hung up my cape and swashbuckler's mask some time ago.
I was viewing Melissa presentation from the embedded link in the thread reply from WellsB. That was my first mistake as access to the index for the video was not being displayed. Today, I opened the video from a separate browser window and shazam (no pun intended) there is the index to Melissa's video. My second mistake was watching it after 10 PM, My eyes and brain did not distinguish the active point vs the total time reporting the length of the video. I concur, the discussion on the ACC setting is at 1 hr 40 min. I appreciate everyone's assistance and patience as I navigate all of this.
Cheers,
