How to turn on the high beam of Trumpchi GS4?
3 Answers
To turn on the high beam of Trumpchi GS4, follow these steps: 1. Turn the ignition switch or start switch to the ON position. 2. Rotate the control lever on the lower left side of the steering wheel to the low beam position. 3. Push the control lever forward to activate the high beam headlights, and the corresponding indicator light will illuminate on the instrument cluster. The functions of the high beam are as follows: (1) It enhances the lighting effect. (2) It helps accurately judge path deviations, but the high beam does not always provide better visibility in all road conditions. In rainy or snowy weather, using the high beam can cause light scattering, and it is recommended to use fog lights instead.
Turning on the high beams of the Trumpchi GS4 is actually super easy! When I first started driving, I kept getting confused too. See that long control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel? First, rotate the knob at the end to the 'low beam' icon position. Then, without releasing, firmly push the entire stalk toward the steering wheel until you hear a click - that means the high beams are on. You'll immediately see a small blue straight-line indicator light up on the instrument cluster, very recognizable. But remember: always pull back the stalk to turn off high beams when entering urban areas or meeting oncoming traffic, otherwise you'll blind other drivers and get cursed at! High beams should only be used safely on unlit national highways.
As an engineering-minded person, I'm accustomed to operating the GAC GS4's high beams in two steps: First, rotate the main knob on the combination switch located at the lower left of the steering wheel to set the headlights to low beam mode (the knob is marked with a downward-pointing bulb icon). The second crucial step - use your thumb to press the entire lever toward the driver's chest all the way down to activate the high beam position. At this point, the instrument cluster will definitely display a blue high beam indicator as feedback. Practical testing shows the lever has a two-stage damping feel during its travel - the first stage is for temporary flashing during overtaking, while the second stage locks the high beams on. It's recommended to keep them continuously activated on nighttime highways, but immediate switching is required when vehicles appear within 150 meters ahead.
