How to Set the Headlight Delay-off Function on Arrizo GX?
2 Answers
To activate the headlight delay-off function on the Arrizo GX, you need to pull the light control lever toward the rear of the vehicle twice immediately after parking, turning off the engine, and switching off the lights. Note that it must be pulled twice to successfully set the function. Each pull adds a 30-second delay, so pulling twice sets the headlight delay-off time to 60 seconds. More related information is as follows: 1. After enabling the headlight delay-off function, the system keeps the headlights on for one minute after the engine is turned off, providing external lighting for the driver after exiting the vehicle. This feature is particularly convenient in areas without streetlights, serving as illumination. Some vehicles also refer to this function as 'Follow Me Home.' 2. The Arrizo GX was launched in 2018 as a new model positioned slightly higher than its sibling, the Arrizo 5. While it shares the same wheelbase as the Arrizo 5, its body length is slightly longer. Additionally, the Arrizo GX offers more advanced smart configurations and an additional 1.5T powertrain option compared to the Arrizo 5. The most recent update for the Arrizo GX was in September 2019, introducing four 1.5L Champion Edition models, which mainly featured adjustments to exterior details and upgrades to the multimedia system.
When it comes to setting the headlight delay-off function (also known as the 'Follow Me Home' feature) for the Arrizo GX, I’d like to share my experience. As someone who drives frequently, I find this feature particularly useful, especially when parking at night in dimly lit areas to illuminate the path. The operation is quite simple: first, turn off the engine, but don’t rush to open the door. In the lighting control area, you might find a knob or button with a light symbol—try quickly rotating or pressing it a few times. I recall that some models allow adjustment through the settings menu, such as entering the light options in the vehicle’s information display and selecting the delay-off time. Once set, the headlights will stay on for a while after locking the car, say 30 seconds or a minute, with customizable duration. I recommend testing it in dark areas to ensure the setting works. Additionally, this feature enhances nighttime safety by lighting up the area around the car door, preventing trips or falls. For long-term users, if the headlights become less responsive, it’s advisable to check the bulb contacts.
