How to activate the headlight alert in my 2010 Mazda BT-50

After a recent service of my 2010 Mazda BT-50, I no longer get the continuous beep indicating the headlights are still on. How do I reset this feature?

Your owner's manual should give you a bit of insight here, but often, functions such as these can be turned on and off via menus within the car's infotainment system or its switchgear.

What's probably happened is that the car's battery has been disconnected at some point during the servicing procedure and the car has reverted to what's known as factory settings. If there's no provision for turning the warning buzzer back on, I'd take it back to the servicing workshop, as something has been altered to disable the buzzer.
