not sure what you mean ?

on mine (xc60 as well) approach lights are switched on via the button on the fob, home safe lights are triggered pull pulling the light stalk with the ignition off.

I always leave lights on auto so no idea if any other position changes their function.


has been the same on my previous 4 cars

nope for the approach lights it's sidelights, rears, puddle lights(if you have them) & interiors.

home safe lights on the stalk illuminate dipped beams for a time set in the my car menus. not 100% on xenons as to what exactly lights will check on mine in the morning
