Do you mean the DRLs (Daylight Running Lights)? This is how you turn them off:

1, Make sure the steering lock is not engaged so you can turn the ignition key freely and that the ignition is turned off;

2. That the light switch is set to 0;

3. Push the indicator stalk down and pull toward you and hold (left indicator and headlamp flasher should be on);

4. Turn ignition switch clockwise to first position (to turn on ignition) for 3 seconds;

5. The car should then beep confirming the DRLs are now off;

6. Return ignition key to off and release indicator stalk and return it to its normal position.

Note that from 2011 its the law that all new vehicles sold in the UK have DRLs.
