Engine management light with ignition on

Hey guys,
Hoping you might be able to help. I have noticed when Turing the ignition on (not starting) the engine management light stays on constantly. I was sure it used to just remain on for a few seconds then disappear?
When starting the car light disappears. Does the light stay on in your F30's with the ignition on only? Handbook doesn't say either way?
Cheers all
James.

Yes I think so. I think it goes off after you start the car.

Cheers and thanks for the reply Bimmer456, I don't know why I assumed it went off after a few seconds and had a panic! 👍🏻
