The manual's explanation is brief so I'd like to confirm my understanding for when headlights are set to "Auto":
  • Lights are always be off when the engine is off.
  • Lights come on when engine is on and it gets dark. They go off when you turn off the engine.
  • Lights come on, dark or light, when the wipers are on.
    • How long do the wipers have to be on, & how long after you turn them off do headlights go off?
  • Auto High Beam is active (when headlights are on).
  • Headlights come on when you unlock a door when dark.
    • How long do they stay on?
    • Is it only when you unlock a door, or also when just opening a door?
Can someone confirm and answer the questions? Is there anything missing?
Thanks!

I believe the wipers + headlights is a separate setting you can turn on/off in the infotainment.

The headlights have an auto-off timer which you can set through the infotainment for when you unlock your car, in 0s, 15s(default), 30s, and 60s. If you unlock your door, the lights will come on for the time you choose. If the timer runs out and the headlights turn off, and then you open the door, the headlights will come back on.
