Method to turn on the fog lights on a Jetta: The fog light switch is located on the inner side of the control lever and is operated by rotation. Turn it upward once to turn on the front fog lights, and turn it twice to the rear fog light position to simultaneously activate both front and rear fog lights. Conversely, turn it back to turn them off. The front fog lights can be turned on individually, while the rear fog lights can only be turned on together with the front fog lights and cannot be activated alone. Taking the Jetta VS7 as an example: it is a mid-size SUV launched by FAW-Volkswagen Jetta, with a length, width, and height of 4624mm, 1841mm, and 1644mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2730mm. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 110kw, and is matched with a 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission.

When driving, I often use the Jetta's fog lights. The switch is usually located on the control lever to the left of the steering wheel. The operation is quite simple: find the rotary knob at the end of the lever and turn it clockwise once to activate the front fog lights. If you need the rear fog lights, rotate it one more notch to the second position. Make sure the headlights are already turned on before activating the fog lights, otherwise they may not respond. This design is especially useful in rainy or foggy conditions, improving visibility and alerting vehicles behind you. I recommend checking if the lights are working before each trip to avoid last-minute issues. During maintenance, don’t forget to clean the dust around the switch to prevent malfunctions caused by accidental operation. Safety comes first when driving—these small details can help avoid major troubles.

When I first started driving, I didn't know how to turn on the fog lights on my Jetta. Later, I figured out that the switch was on a control knob located below the left side of the steering wheel. To operate it, gently turn the knob to the 'front' position for the front lights and 'rear' for the rear lights. Before turning them on, it's best to ensure the headlights are already on—just test to see if they light up for peace of mind. Using them in heavy fog improves visibility and reduces accident risks. I always practice a few times in the garage to familiarize myself with the switch positions, avoiding mistakes in urgent situations. Regular maintenance is also crucial, like checking bulbs and wiring to prevent sudden failures. In short, operate patiently and prioritize safe driving.

The fog lights on a Jetta are typically operated using the signal lever on the left side of the steering wheel. Rotating the knob on the lever activates the front and rear fog lights, usually in the sequence from 'off' to 'front' and then to 'rear'. Once turned on, the lights will function automatically, provided the vehicle's headlight system is already activated. Using them in rainy or foggy conditions directly enhances safety; remember to reset the knob when turning them off. If the lights don't illuminate, check the fuse or contact issues, and it's recommended to inspect them quarterly.

How is the toll charged for temporary license plates on highways?

Temporary license plates and regular license plates are charged the same toll on highways. However, it's important to note that when using temporary license plates on highways, you must confirm the nature of the temporary plates. If traveling out of the city, you need to display temporary plates with a brown-yellow background, black characters, and black borders, and they must be affixed both on the front and rear of the vehicle to avoid traffic violations on the highway. Precautions for using temporary license plates: 1. Validity period of temporary license plates. Temporary license plates have a limited validity period, which can be 15 days, 30 days, or 90 days. For temporary driving across administrative regions, the validity period does not exceed 30 days. When using temporary license plates, be mindful to avoid expiration. If the temporary plates expire, you need to reapply for new ones, with a maximum of three applications per vehicle. 2. Penalties for running red lights and illegal parking. Whether driving on highways or in urban areas, temporary license plates and regular license plates have the same legal effect. If traffic violations occur, penalties will be imposed accordingly, especially for running red lights, which will result in a 6-point deduction if caught. Drivers are advised not to attempt such violations. 3. Penalties for expired plates. If temporary license plates are found to be expired, the driver will face a 12-point deduction and a fine of 200 RMB. Therefore, drivers using temporary license plates should pay close attention to their validity period.
