How to Turn Off the Driving Lights on a Haval Big Dog?

Turn the key to the first position, then turn the turn signal to the left while pulling the lever upward to turn on the high beams. Do not release your grip at this point, then turn the key to the second position (self-check), and wait until you hear a sound.
As a veteran Haval Big Dog owner with over a decade of driving experience, let me share some insights about daytime running lights (DRLs). After taking delivery of my vehicle, I noticed the DRLs were enabled by default - a great feature that makes your car more visible to others during daytime driving and helps prevent accidents.
To turn them off, you'll need to operate while parked safely: Start the engine (but don't drive), then use the control buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to scroll to the instrument cluster settings menu. Look for options like "Vehicle Settings" or "Lighting Settings," then select "Daytime Running Lights" or similar wording to toggle them off. Some newer models even support operation through the central touchscreen, which is quite intuitive.
Important reminder: DRLs consume minimal power. The main reasons to disable them would be specific scenarios like saving battery during nighttime camping or avoiding disturbing neighbors. Never turn them off while driving as it may violate traffic regulations. I've tried this a few times myself - always make sure to reactivate them before driving again, safety first. Consulting your owner's manual or contacting the 4S dealership is also recommended.
