Auxiliary Driving Lights?

I'm having trouble finding documentation or information on my Aux Driving Lights. They came installed in the front bumper of the 2010 Clubman Rally Edition I purchased in October.

When I bought the car, the 2 problems with it were the passenger side seat quick release, and the aux driving lights. I stipulated that they be repaired as part of the sale.

I just got the car back from service for these items, and feel stupid for not checking their work. The lights still don't work, although the button (mounted forward of the steering wheel on the left side, dash) now has a green indicator light that functions.

Before I call them and flip out, am I missing something? I can't find information on their operation in my regular Clubman manual.

Did the dealer just totally drop the ball here?

The driving lights will only work in conjunction with the high beams. If the green light is on, they are 'armed' and should turn on when you hit the high beams. Try that before you go medieval on the service advisor.

Thank you! I was flummoxed that I could not find any instructions for them. You saved me from looking like an idiot. Cheers!
