Setting Leica SL or Camera Problem

[Schittra]

I have problem to set the autofocus and bracketing on Leica SL to work as I want. I could misunderstand. Can you please help me on how to set the autofocus on Leica SL to work properly? Here are my problems:

1. I set the camera to autofocus with touch focus. The focus point moves as I touch. The manual said, if I push the joystick, it will be back to center - but it didn't (or my camera has problem?)

2. The manual said, I can switch between MF and AF by pushing the joy stick. In my case, it doesn't (is it camera problem or setting)?

3. I set bracketing on the camera but it didn't do bracketing at all.

I tried to read the manual but still cannot get what I am looking for. Sorry for silly questions. I haven't used Autofocus nearly 20 years. 

Thank you very much.

I found a solution for autobracket. It’s user’s fault. I need to set shutter release mode to autobracket. 
one more question, whenever I start the camera, the grid, water level and focus peaking are gone. Can I permanently set it?

Hi,

Yes, you can customize the display to what you like.

The FN button will toggle through 4 different profiles. On page 5 of the menu under camera settings/capture assistants/setting 

you can choose what features you would like on or off.

hope this helps, not sure if it’s the same on SL
