Cooling fan runs when car starts.....stays on when engine running

06 s80 AWD turbo... 135 miles.

From cold start the cooling fan immediately turns on. This does not seem normal. Isn't the fan regulated by a temperature switch?

If you shut it down immediately, before it warms up, the fan stays on for several minutes.

In normal driving, at idle, the fan is either off or running depending on the engine temperature.

Where is the switch and can I test it?
