The method to turn on the fog lights on the 10th Generation Civic is: Rotate the light control switch from the 'off' position upwards to the front fog light position. The Civic is a compact car under Honda. Taking the 2019 Civic Shangqing Edition as an example, it is a compact 4-door 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4658mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The 2019 Civic Shangqing Edition is equipped with a 1.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 92 kW and a maximum torque of 173 N·m. It adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear.

Turning on the fog lights of the 10th-gen Civic is actually quite simple. I remember figuring it out the first time I drove this car. First, start the car and turn on the headlights—otherwise, the fog lights might not work. On the left side of the steering wheel, there’s a light control stalk. Rotate it to the second position to turn on the low beams, then gently pull the ring or rotate the switch on the stalk—there’s a fog light icon on it. Pull it forward once to activate the front fog lights. If you encounter particularly heavy fog, you can pull it again to turn on the rear fog lights. Be careful not to use too much force during the process—the stalk is quite sensitive. Fog lights help you see the road ahead in bad weather, but avoid using them unnecessarily, as it wastes power and may disturb other drivers. After turning them on, always confirm that the lights are illuminated—safety comes first when driving.

New drivers learning to use fog lights, don't worry—the 10th-gen Civic's operation is very user-friendly. After starting the vehicle, locate the stalk on the left side of the steering wheel. First, turn it to the headlight-on position—usually the second notch on the dial activates the low beams. Then, look for a small rotary ring or button with a fog light symbol at the tip of the stalk. Twist or pull it to activate the front fog lights. Use them in rain or fog for better visibility, but avoid using them on clear nights to prevent glare. If you can't find the icon, the Civic's instrument panel will display the fog light status, making it easy for beginners to monitor. The whole process takes less than 10 seconds and becomes effortless with practice. Always check your lights to avoid leaving them on, which helps preserve battery life.

The fog light switch on the 10th-gen Civic is intuitively designed. After entering the car, turn on the headlights to the low beam mode, typically the second position on the light stalk. Simply rotate the ring control at the end of the stalk towards the front fog light symbol to activate them. Some higher-trim models also feature a rear fog light option, operated similarly. Fog lights are life-saving in low visibility conditions like heavy fog or rain, but avoid using them during normal city driving. The controls are straightforward—don't overthink it. Just test if the lights illuminate to confirm operation. The key is developing a pre-drive check habit to ensure all lights function properly.
