Is this something you've been able to do on this machine before, or is the machine new to you? There may be separate options for this function, one for use with just the stitch you have selected, and the other in the settings menu that's applied across the board. It also may be separate in the sewing function and the embroidery function. I have so rarely had reason to change it that I don't remember much about doing it, and my sewing/ embroidery machine is a Baby Lock, so my ideas aren't specific to your machine.
It might be worthwhile to switch between sewing and embroidery and back because the machine will have to reset some options between the two. Of course, as with any digital device, a restart might possibly help. I hope somebody comes along who knows more than I do about your Bernina.

With my 820, I can use the foot pedal for needle up/down -- love it! Just a tap at the bottom.
I have vision issues and can't really read the buttons in live time, so I learned where the cut thread one is and I use my knee lift and foot pedal and life is good!

My friend who had the 820 before me replaced it with a 770 and loves it. Not everyone likes Berninas, but Bernina owners seem to love their 770s -- while the 820 is generally not held in such high regard.
Mine's in the shop, they have just reopened after Covid. They just called and it will be ready in about a week and the estimated cost is less than I had expected (a little over 200 instead of the $350 I had figured).
Woohoo! I've been sewing on a bottom of the line Brother and I had gotten used to the bells and whistles of the Bernina.
