How to Turn On/Off the Position Lights on the New Corolla?
3 Answers
New Toyota Corolla position light switch operation method: Rotate the light switch on the left-hand stalk of the steering wheel to the position light setting to turn on the position lights, tail lights, license plate lights, and instrument panel illumination. Turn to the AUTO setting, and the headlights, other exterior lights, and instrument panel illumination will automatically turn on and off. Position lights refer to the front and rear position lights of the vehicle, primarily indicating the presence and approximate width of the car, aiding other vehicles in judging during passing and overtaking. The new Toyota Corolla is a brand under Toyota Motor Corporation, with body dimensions of 4630mm in length, 1775mm in width, and 1480mm in height.
Turning on the Corolla's parking lights is actually super easy! There's usually a headlight control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel - just rotate the knob at its end. Turn it one click to illuminate the instrument panel lights, and another click to activate the small front and rear marker lights. Many newer models now have automatic lights, but if you suddenly encounter light rain at night and want the parking lights, simply turn to the parking light symbol position. Here's a pro tip: These lights make your car more visible to others in overcast weather or tunnels, especially for gray-colored cars in rainy conditions - they really stand out! Just don't leave them on too long while parked waiting for someone, or you might drain the battery. My best friend once had to call roadside assistance because of this.
I drive a Corolla Hybrid bought last year, let me share my usage habits. The switch for the parking lights and low beams shares the same rotary knob, located on your left side with an anti-slip textured dial. When rotating, you'll hear a 'click' sound indicating the position, and a small green light icon will pop up on the dashboard. If the automatic headlights are always on, remember to turn off the auto mode to activate the parking lights alone. It's especially useful at dawn when the sky is dim - not as glaring as headlights but still makes the car's outline visible to pedestrians. Once in heavy fog, I turned on the parking lights, and the driver behind me rolled down the window to give me a thumbs up!
