EOS 100D / Rebel SL1 how to stop settings changing when carrying

I have an EOS 100D (Rebel SL1) which I use when out hiking/walking on a strap over a shoulder. It'll be turned on, but the touch screen is disabled (via menu setting). I normally have it set up in Program mode, Auto ISO, RAW and single-shot AF. However, and this is my problem, sometimes when I come to use it it's switched ISO or picture quality (to JPG) or AF mode (or a combination of these) to something different.

I've never had this problem with my other Canon DSLRs (7D Mk 1, 6D) when used in a similar way. I'm assuming that some buttons are getting pressed as the camera moves against my body, but can't see any way to "lock" the settings in the menus.

Anyone else come across this ? Or even better, is there a solution ?
