2 Answers
The method to turn on the headlights of a BMW 5 Series is: rotate the light button to the AUTO position. The headlights will automatically turn on when the light dims and automatically turn off when there is sufficient light. Models of the BMW 5 Series include: BMW 525Li, BMW 525LiM, BMW 530LiM, BMW 530Li, BMW 530Li xDrive, etc. Taking the 2021 BMW 525Li as an example, it is a mid-to-large-sized car with body dimensions of: length 5106mm, width 1868mm, height 1500mm, and a wheelbase of 3105mm. The 2021 BMW 525Li is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 184PS, a maximum torque of 290Nm, and a maximum power of 135kW.
I just started driving a BMW 5 Series, and turning on the headlights is quite simple. Generally, the switch is on the left side of the steering wheel—there’s a knob on the turn signal lever; just twist it. Turn it to the right to the 'Auto' position for automatic mode, where the car turns the lights on by itself based on darkness or brightness—super convenient. For manual control, twist it to the headlight symbol until the indicator lights up, which means they’re on. Remember to turn them on at dusk or in poor visibility for safety, so you don’t get pulled over. Some people forget to set them, and the lights stay off after starting the car—just check the dashboard indicator to confirm. Automatic headlights respond on highways or in tunnels, but if the sensor gets dirty, clean it to avoid malfunctions. In short, make it a habit to check your lights every time you drive—safe driving, no worries.
