How to Properly Toggle Between High and Low Beams?
2 Answers
First pull the lever towards yourself, then push it in the opposite direction, repeating this back-and-forth motion twice. This achieves the toggling between high and low beams. Here is some relevant information about toggling between high and low beams: The purpose of toggling between high and low beams: To make yourself more visible to other road users, when meeting oncoming vehicles, as a warning signal, or when passing through intersections. Conditions for using high and low beam toggling: When overtaking, activate the left turn signal in advance and switch between high and low beams. When driving at night on sharp curves, slopes, arched bridges, crosswalks, and similar road sections, alternate between high and low beams.
I've been driving for many years, and switching between high and low beams is crucial, especially when meeting oncoming vehicles at night to avoid dazzling the other driver. The proper method is to toggle the light control lever, located below the steering wheel on the left side. The standard operation is: push down for high beams, and a quick push up to return to low beams; to alternate, just repeat this action a few times. The movement should be quick and smooth, not sluggish, to avoid distraction. It's best to start switching about 100 meters away from the oncoming vehicle while maintaining a steady speed. Poor techniques include pushing the lever too hard or too slowly, or repeatedly hesitating. You can practice this action regularly to get used to quick switching without looking at the lever. This not only ensures safe driving but also reduces the risk of accidents. After driving for a while, you'll find it becomes second nature.
