How to Turn on High Beam and Low Beam?
2 Answers
The control for high beam and low beam is located on the lever on the left side of the steering wheel. The middle position is for low beam, while the first and third positions are for high beam. The high beam icon is blue with a straight line shape, while the low beam icon is green with a downward-sloping line. Press the corresponding button to turn on the high or low beam, and the lever is moved up and down to switch between them. Here are some relevant details: 1. There is a lever on each side of the steering wheel. The right one is mostly for wiper control, while the left one is for light control, including switching between high and low beams, turn signals, etc. 2. The lever for controlling the light group moves up and down for high and low beams, and forward and backward for turn signals. 3. Both high beam and low beam are part of the headlights, mainly used for nighttime driving illumination. The high beam has a higher angle and longer range, suitable for poorly lit or low-visibility road conditions. The low beam has a lower angle and shorter range, mostly used for well-lit roads with good visibility.
Operating the high beams and low beams is actually quite simple. The control is located on the lever to the left of the steering wheel, usually in a push-pull style. After starting the car, turn on the headlight switch, and by default, it's the low beam, suitable for normal nighttime driving as the light angle won't dazzle others. If you're in rural areas or on highways and need to see farther ahead, push the lever forward to activate the high beams. At this point, a blue icon will appear on the dashboard to remind you. Remember to switch back to low beams immediately when encountering oncoming traffic, following too closely, or driving on well-lit roads to avoid accidents. Personally, when driving, I always make it a habit to keep my hand near the lever for quick adjustments, especially in rainy or foggy conditions where high beams might scatter and actually reduce visibility. It's best for every beginner to practice this operation first to avoid fumbling in critical moments—safety always comes first.
