Default Odd headlight issue ? Need help

One strange thing with my C5 is everytime I start the engine, the headlights pop up, and they won't go back down even, if I rotate the light switch. but if I shut off the engine they go down. I looked in the "options" on the right side control panel, but I don't see any kind of answer for this odd behavior ? Anyone able to point me in the right direction ?

Check the options for "Twilight Sentinel" and turn it off. If this is a Canadian car, you might be stuck with this.
