How to activate the headlight cleaning function on the Audi Q3?
2 Answers
Audi Q3 turns on the headlights, sets the lighting to auto mode or other modes, and then pulls the wiper switch towards the driver's direction, which will spray misty water onto the headlights. This function only sprays water without any additional features. It is recommended to keep the lights in auto mode for regular headlight cleaning. Here are some details about the Audi Q3: 1. The rear of the car still adopts a tail light layout similar to the current model, featuring rear LED tail light clusters paired with fog light clusters on both sides of the lower bumper. 2. Some models have added an automatic parking function and offer optional features such as variable suspension and sport-style seats. 3. In terms of power: The 2017 domestic Audi Q3 will continue with the current powertrain. The 30TFSI model is equipped with a 1.4T engine, delivering a maximum power of 110kW (150PS) and a maximum torque of 250Nm.
When I first got familiar with the Audi Q3, I was also curious about how to activate the headlight cleaning function. It's quite simple. First, you need to turn on the headlight switch, preferably setting it to the auto position. Then, grab the wiper control stalk on the right side of the steering wheel—the one used to spray windshield washer fluid. Gently pull it upward and hold it for about 5 seconds without releasing. At this point, the system detects that the headlights are on and will activate the nozzles under the front bumper to spray water and clean the headlights. This feature is quite thoughtful, especially for long-distance driving or in dusty areas, as it helps maintain clear lighting and improves nighttime visibility safety. Remember to regularly check if the washer fluid is full to avoid affecting the cleaning performance. I’ve found it very convenient to use on highways and recommend making it a habit to clean them frequently.
