How to Switch Between High and Low Beams on the New Jetta?
1 Answers
To operate the high and low beams on the New Jetta: Turn the light knob clockwise to activate the low beams; push the light combination lever on the left side of the steering wheel forward to turn on the high beams. Pull the lever back to its original position to turn off the high beams; pull the lever backward and release it to switch between high and low beams momentarily. Below are some precautions for using the high and low beams on the New Jetta: Low beams: 1. Turn on the low beams when it gets slightly dark and visibility begins to decrease. 2. Turn on the low beams before entering a tunnel. Entering a tunnel can cause temporary blindness, and visibility inside many tunnels is poor, so always turn on the lights before entering. 3. Turn on the low beams before entering an underground garage. 4. Use low beams in special weather conditions: When visibility is less than 200 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beams, marker lights, and front and rear position lights. Speed should not exceed 60 km/h, and maintain a distance of more than 100 meters from the vehicle ahead in the same lane. In severe weather, use the hazard lights in combination. High beams: 1. High beams are prohibited in urban areas. The high angle of high beams can directly blind oncoming drivers, causing temporary vision loss. Due to dense traffic in cities, using high beams is highly unethical. 2. In suburban areas or sections with poor visibility, low beams may not be sufficient to detect road conditions, so high beams can be used. However, switch back to low beams when approaching oncoming traffic. Also, switch to low beams when following another vehicle. 3. High beams are prohibited in rainy or foggy conditions because the reflection from fog can create a blinding haze. 4. When driving at night, avoid staying in the inner lane as much as possible. Driving in the inner lane makes it easier to be affected by high beams from oncoming traffic, which can increase eye strain and fatigue over time.
