Wife driven crazy by controls.

My wife got her 2018 Clubman S (automatic) in August. She is driven crazy by the display asking her to confirm that she should not rely on the backing up screen - every day. We have a 180 foot long driveway surrounded by overhanging holly trees, ferns, hydrangeas, etc. that come into the field of vision. It squawks all the way out to the road.

Not having driven the car for more than having to set the TPS , can anyone tell me, if she actually needs to confirm (every time) that she's not to rely on this? Can it just be ignored, and will it go away when she drives forward again?

Actually, she hates the controls. She came from a 2015 MINI Cooper which she loved. She couldn't get a CD player for the new Clubman for love or money, and she rightly complains that trying to drive the car while trying to navigate changing something on the screen connected to the iPhone is very dangerous, let a lone annoying.

We have piles of CDs, and a library of recorded books (she a librarian). On long trips we used to play recored goods for 9 hours at a time... no more.
Has any found a add on CD player for these cars?

Sorry for all the whining.
