Ignition on and dipped beams coming on with the sidelights setting is normal on some ukdm models (there was a dim/dipped regulation for a few years) however dipped setting should not stick the main beam filaments on at all - they should only come on on main beam.
:think: Can't recall if the h4 main beam filaments are ever meant to operate, off the top of my head...

Main/full beam they do all light up.
I was talking about the H4 bulb playing silly buggers.
Normally the H4 would be dipped beam and main/full beam. Seems for some reason the dipped works as the side light and the full as the dipped light.
