Default Parking light and DRL

I was under the impression that when I turn on the parking lights only and not the headlights, the DRL’s would go off? When I turned on the parking lights, the DRL’s stayed on. Normal?

If you don't have an Owner's Manual, you can download a PDF from https://nissanusa.com.

Thanks. I could have missed it, but read the manual and didn’t see anything in there.

I also checked the FSM in your sig just in case but still nothing

I've got a '14 and the DRL's are lit when no lights are on and also when the parking lights are on. They only go off when the headlights are on, whether by manual or the auto function.
