How to Turn Off the Automatic Headlights on the Honda Vezel?
3 Answers
The method to turn off the automatic headlights on the Honda Vezel is: there is an 'auto' mark on the light switch, turn it to 'off' to disable the automatic headlights. Taking the 2020 Honda Vezel as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions of: length 4328mm, width 1772mm, height 1605mm, wheelbase 2610mm, fuel tank capacity 50l, and body weight 1227kg. The 2020 Honda Vezel features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 131ps, maximum torque of 155nm, maximum power of 96kw, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
There's a control lever on the left side of the steering wheel, and you can easily reach the rotary switch. Turn it from the AUTO position to the circle O mark, and the automatic headlights will be completely turned off. I tried it once last year when I felt the automatic headlights were dazzling during car washing, only to find the operation so simple. Normally, it's safer to keep them on automatically when driving through tunnels, but you can turn them off on sunny days to save some power. Remember not to turn it to the parking light position, or it might look like you have the headlights on, which could be misunderstood by traffic police. Honda's design is quite handy—no need to bend over looking for buttons.
Just locate the light control knob on the stalk to the left of the steering wheel. Turn it clockwise from AUTO to the OFF position - the whole operation takes just three seconds. Last time I drove my friend's Vezel, the lights automatically turned on when entering an underground garage during daytime and stayed on afterwards, wasting battery. After disabling the auto mode, it felt much better and the battery indicator dropped slower. Remember to turn it back for night driving though, otherwise you'll need to manually turn on the lights which is quite troublesome. Such small features should be this intuitive - much more user-friendly than those buried in infotainment screen settings.
