I think that the A/C light on only to indicate the Auto climate system is on, but it that it mean the compressor is also turned on.
The system will run the compressor in defrost modes, even if the stat is set for heat. So if the light is on, it must think it needs some defrost/defog. Or maybe they run in a defrost mode all the time with the automatic systems.. Not sure. Mine is not automatic. But I know if I dial to defrost, even with the stat turned to full heat, the compressor runs. Anyway, I'd consider it most likely normal. The purpose is to keep the glass clear.
