Driving lights

Hi, I have just picked up my new (to me) V40 T4 today and am V.V. happy with it so far. Quick question, how do you turn off the side lights, they seem to be on all the time?

You will need to give the year.

Turn your headlight on and pull the main beam stalk towards you whilst turning off the headlights. This is what I read on another forum but I have yet to try it out on my car as the running lights have never been on

If it a 01 on car ie a new shape then it tells you how to turn them off in your hand book, if its not then its a new headlight switch or take it apart and take out the bridge wire.

It's a 2001 Phase II car. Unfortunatly the handbook is missing?

Ok turn ignition on and switch headlights on,
Hold full beam on and while doing that turn off igntion and then switch headlight switch to off postion,
Release main beam and test

Or i thinks thats how you turn them off
