Headlights stay on when switch is in off position

Can anyone please help, when my 2012 Volvo S60 ignition is switched on the main headlights come on when the switch is in the O off position? it used to be just my DRLs that came on. All I have done recently is disconnected and reconnected the battery. Thanks

2011 V60 here - My dipped headlights have always been on in the 0 position.

0 - Dipped headlights
1 - Sidelights / LEDs
2 - Dipped headlights.

Thought it was standard. So I'd ask if you were sure about how they worked before.

Hi thanks for taking time to reply, before I disconnected battery it was

0- DRL/LED only
1- Sidelights and DRL/LED
2- Headlights Dipped

On the pre-facelift models the DRLs were the dipped headlights, the LED lights in the nose are sidelights so it should operate as Rocinante's above.

It sounds like yours had previously been changed so I would guess that disconnecting the battery has somehow changed it back to the default.
