How to Turn on the High Beam on a Jetta?
1 Answers
The horizontal lever on the left side of the steering wheel, which controls the turn signals, can be twisted at its front end. It has two positions: twisting it once turns on the parking lights, and twisting it again turns on the low beam. When the low beam is on, pushing the lever upward activates the high beam. More details are as follows: 1. Function of High Beam: Generally, there is no need to use the high beam when driving on urban roads, as the lighting conditions are usually good. The high beam is angled too high and can easily blind oncoming drivers and pedestrians, affecting their vision. This is not only unsafe but also considered impolite driving behavior. 2. Usage Scenarios: If you notice that oncoming vehicles frequently switch between high and low beams to signal you, promptly check whether you have accidentally turned on your high beam. Alternating between high and low beams serves as a form of light communication with various meanings, such as alerting vehicles at intersections, signaling for a nighttime overtake, or reminding oncoming vehicles to switch to low beam. Finally, we remind all drivers to use the high beam only when there are no other lighting facilities on the road and no oncoming vehicles.
