Default Possible to reduce elapsed time of headlamp on after ignition off?

I found the elapsed time of the headlamp on after ignition off a little too long. I did not time it but it seems like 60 sec or more? Can I reduce it to 30 sec?
Thanks for any suggestions!

yeah, this is what you do
Turn off the engine.
Flip light stalk from Auto to Off then back to Auto.
Done.

When the headlights come on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30 seconds after a
door is opened and closed if the engine switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or
turned off. (The lights turn off immediately if on the key fob lock is pressed after all the doors
are locked.)

There is a setting that controls this behavior. I’m sorry I don’t recall exactly which menu this lives under. It is discussed on page 221 of my manual. Anyway, it can be set to 30, 60 or 90 seconds (or off).

As mentioned above another option is the use your Remote Touch, First hit menu then vehicle and scroll to the headlight function where you can set them to off or as mentioned above.
These pix are from the manual. Some functions are not available others can only be done by the dealer.

If there is anything to add to Mike's response above, Chapter 9.2 Customization page 617 in Owner's Manual provides info on automatic light control system.
