I didn’t quite have the same experience. In auto mode this morning when it was bright out, only the auto wording was illuminated but my DRLS were physically on. When I put it to the green bit (i.e. side lights) , the green bit lit up too, nothing happened to my physical car lights as the DRL lights double up as side lights. When I I put it to the red dipped icon, it lit up and my physical dipped lights came on which are of course my HID lights. Last night when I checked performed this task, the swithch had all icons and wording illumated whilst in automode, beucase it was dark out and all were required to be on. This all seems to check out with what my manual says each lights does.
