No, it should just go off in its own. If you press the check button is it showing you where on the car the light is out? Do you have access to a VCDS, I'd use that if all my lights are in and the error is still coming up.

Yes I have VCDS...What Check button are you referring to? And what procedures to do in VCDS?

There is a button on dash panel near instrument cluster that reads "CHECK". If you press that a picture of the car should come up in center display as if a door was open and whatever light is out will be shown by a red line....at least that's what my 07 did when I had a parking light out. You can run a full scan on VCDS or check under central electronics module (I think?).
