How to Turn Off the Daytime Running Lights on the Sylphy?
2 Answers
First, enter the car and press the brake pedal with your right foot. Then, insert the key into the ignition lock near the steering wheel and gently turn it to power on the car. Turn the key again to start the car. At this point, all dashboard lights will illuminate for a few seconds while the car performs a self-check. Locate the headlight knob on the car. Press the knob and rotate the headlight switch forward one position to the parking light setting, which will turn on the parking lights. Once the headlights of the Sylphy are turned on, the constantly illuminated daytime running lights will automatically turn off.
I remember encountering the same issue when driving my family's Sylphy. At first, I also wanted to turn off the daytime running lights, finding them quite annoying and power-consuming. After searching through the manual for a long time, I finally found the solution. Simply put, you need to turn on the ignition without starting the engine, then sit in the driver's seat. Find the settings button or directional keys on the steering wheel, navigate left or right to the vehicle settings menu, where there's a lighting option. Inside, you'll find the daytime running lights switch—select 'off' and you're done. However, to be honest, doing this might affect safety since they're designed to alert others of your presence, especially useful in dim lighting. I tried turning them off once, but they turned back on by themselves later—the system automatically restores defaults to prevent risks. If you have the new Sylphy e-POWER, the steps might be slightly different. It's safer to check the dashboard prompts or ask at the dealership first.
