3 Answers
Here are the specific methods to turn on the lights of the Infiniti QX50: 1. Turn signals and parking lights. With the ignition switch on, simply rotate the control lever to the corresponding turn signal or parking light position to activate the respective lights. 2. High beams. Push the light control lever forward to activate the high beams. 3. Fog lights. The switch is located on the left side of the dashboard. Rotate the switch to the corresponding position to turn on the fog lights. 4. Automatic headlights, low beams, and position lights. When the AUTO indicator light is on, it means the automatic headlights are active. Rotate the knob to switch between automatic headlights, low beams, and position lights. 5. Headlight washer (available on certain models). With the headlights on, activate the windshield washer switch to clean the headlights. If you only want to clean the windshield, turn off the headlights before activating the windshield washer switch.
As a newbie who just started driving the QX50, I was a bit nervous the first time I got in the car. After some exploration, I found that operating the lights is actually quite simple. There's a long lever on the left side of the steering wheel with a small knob at the end—just twist it: the first position is for parking lights, suitable for dusk; the second position is for low beams, which you must use when driving in the dark; there's also an 'AUTO' option, meaning automatic headlights, where the car adjusts the lights based on the darkness, making it both convenient and safe. After turning on the lights, the dashboard will display an icon to confirm they're on. If they don't light up, don't panic—check if the fuse is blown or if the switch isn't turned all the way. The QX50's LED lights are very bright, energy-efficient, and easy to maintain. I recommend getting into the habit of using auto mode, especially at night or in the rain, as it can significantly reduce the risk of accidents. When I bought the car, the salesperson reminded me to clean the light covers regularly to avoid dust affecting the illumination. With a bit of practice, you'll get the hang of it quickly. Safety first—never be careless about turning on your lights!
As a seasoned driver with over a decade of experience, I find the QX50's controls incredibly intuitive. The knob at the top of the turn signal stalk is the core for lighting control—simply twist to switch modes: rotate to 'OFF' to turn lights off, 'PARK' for parking lights as a warning, and 'HEADLIGHT' for low beams to illuminate the road. The QX50's auto headlight feature is super convenient; set to 'AUTO,' the system senses light levels to turn lights on/off automatically. It’s especially reliable in rain or fog, adjusting brightness promptly for safety. Plus, daytime running lights stay on by default—no manual activation needed. Always heed dashboard prompts; if lights fail, check fuses or wiring. Make it a habit to inspect lights right after starting—I do this every time to avoid nighttime mishaps. For maintenance, QX50’s LEDs last long, but check connectors for looseness every six months to prolong lifespan. Overall, the controls are so straightforward even beginners grasp them instantly.
