How to Turn On the High and Low Beams of a Volkswagen?
2 Answers
Volkswagen high and low beam operation steps are as follows: 1. There is a set of light combination switches on the left side of the steering wheel: Rotating the combination switch forward one notch turns on the dashboard lights, another notch activates the low beams, and rotating one more notch turns on the high beams. 2. The car's high and low beams are used for nighttime driving illumination: When driving in unfamiliar or sparsely trafficked areas, you can appropriately use high beams to better see the road ahead, but only when you are sure there are no vehicles in the opposite lane. If you encounter oncoming vehicles using high beams at night, you can try alternating between high and low beams to remind them to switch back to low beams.
I've been driving a Volkswagen for seven or eight years, and I'm most familiar with the light controls. There's a control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel. Turning the knob to AUTO activates the automatic headlights, and I usually leave it in this position. When manual control is needed, just rotate it to the position marked with the parking light or low beam icon. To turn on the high beams, simply push the stalk all the way toward the instrument panel when the low beams are on, and the blue high beam indicator will immediately light up on the dashboard. Pulling the stalk back to flash the lights when meeting another car is especially practical. For front fog lights in rainy or foggy conditions, first turn the knob to the headlight position, then pull the control ring out to the first detent. The rear fog light operates similarly. The logic of these light switches in the car is quite intuitive.
