Auto headlights
I can't seem to find in the owner's manual on how to shut off auto-on headlights. For example when you fire up your car in a garage, the car will auto-on the headlights. I'd like to turn off that feature and manually turn on my headlights.
Any advice? Thanks in advance |

The button is on the lower left of the steering column.

For example, here in Canada, it is not possible to turn off the light completely. Either the DRL or the full headlights are on, there is no off. What is your concern about auto on? |

You may not need the headlights...but there are times that it helps others to see you when you’re headlights are on.

Previously with Xenon HID headlights, too many on/off cycles significantly reduce its life. Nowadays with LEDs, it doesn't really matter. And it's also turning on when I approach the car etc. It does not bother me.
