I tried to put these on permanently via the stalk, but realised that they spring back to the 'A' position. Delighted with the way it works, dipping well before a vehicle approaching is dazzled, and also when you are approaching from behind. It seemed to know when I was in a well lit 30mph limit as well.

Indeed they are what I call semi automatic lights. You have to manually activate the main beam auto setting each time you turn the ignition on. Otherwise it just does the side/dipped lights automatically

It’s an excellent feature that works very well. Only fooled once so far by chevrons. Apart from that very useful. As you say stills has to be re-enabled at each engine start, which lets face it is hardly a chore.😀
