How to Turn Off the Headlights on an Audi A3?
2 Answers
The method to turn off the headlights on an Audi A3 is that the headlights automatically turn off after the vehicle is turned off. Manually turning off the headlights will automatically activate the daytime running lights. Taking the 2021 Audi A3 Progressive Elegance model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4543mm, width 1815mm, height 1458mm, with a wheelbase of 2630mm and a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters. The 2021 Audi A3 Progressive Elegance model features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, a maximum power of 110kW, and a maximum torque of 250Nm.
I usually drive an Audi A3, and turning off the headlights is actually quite simple. First, look at the control lever on the left side of the steering wheel, find the round knob, and give it a twist—that’s it. However, there are slight differences between models: if yours has automatic headlights, when the knob is set to AUTO, the headlights will turn on automatically in low light. To fully turn them off in this case, you’ll need to rotate the knob to the position marked O. For manual headlights, just turn the knob all the way until you see the O symbol and stop there. If the lights stay on after turning off the engine, chances are the knob is still in AUTO—just switch it to O. It’s a good habit to check the knob position when parking, especially after driving in rain or through tunnels, to avoid draining the battery. After washing the car, it’s also best to manually turn them off, as automatic settings can sometimes be overly sensitive and waste power.
