Hongqi H5's fog light switch is located on the steering wheel or to the left of the steering wheel. The driver can simply press it to turn on the fog lights. Here is more information about the Hongqi H5: 1. Body Dimensions: The length, width, and height of the Hongqi H5 are 4945x1845x1470mm, with a wheelbase of 2875mm. 2.

When operating the fog lights on my Hongqi H5, I found they are primarily controlled via the stalk on the left side of the steering wheel. First, rotate the light control knob to the headlight or auto position - this is the essential step since fog lights cannot be activated independently and require main light support. Then, gently pull the end of the stalk or press the fog light button on its side, and you'll feel the front fog lights illuminate. To activate the rear fog lights, perform the same pulling action a second time, with an icon on the instrument cluster indicating the activation status. Hongqi H5's design philosophy here aims to prevent accidental operation, significantly improving visibility in foggy conditions. However, I recommend using them only when visibility drops below 50 meters to avoid creating glare for other drivers in clear weather. Regularly check if the fog light bulbs are functioning properly. If the switch feels unresponsive, it might indicate circuit contact issues, and a safety inspection at the 4S shop is advisable. The vehicle's lighting system is quite considerate in design, offering intuitive operation.
I recently purchased a Hongqi H5 and initially didn't quite know how to use the fog lights, but after some exploration, I found it quite simple. First, make sure the car is in the started state, then locate the light control switch on the center console or the left side of the steering wheel, and turn it to the position where the headlights are on. Next, look for a fan-shaped icon button near the instrument panel—press it once to turn on the front fog lights, and press the same button again or pull the control lever to activate the rear fog lights. For beginners, it's safer to practice a few times in a parking lot before operating. The Hongqi H5 manual also emphasizes that fog lights should only be used in foggy or rainy weather, as they might otherwise be mistaken for high beams. After each use, develop the habit of turning off the fog light button to extend the bulb's lifespan. Additionally, the lighting response of Hongqi cars is very quick—the lights illuminate immediately after being turned on—but don't forget to unlock the car doors, as some functions may be restricted when the car is locked.
