Engine starts without brake pedal push

I have noticed recently that I can startup engine without pushing the brake pedal. For some reason the safety feature that required to depress pedal while cranking at Tip cars, is no longer there.
Dealer scanned for errors and found all normal, the brake pedal switch activates brake lights and everything else looks normal. I believe this safety feature is programmed in DME but has been erased/deactivated on mine.

Any thoughts how to activated it again???

Thanks+Regards

It's made that way. There's nothing wrong with it. You just have to press the clutch.
