The correct method to turn on the high beams on the Yixuan: Hold the leftmost end of the lighting control lever on the left side of the steering wheel and rotate it forward. Rotating it once sets it to AUTO, where the headlights, front position lights, instrument panel lights, rear combination lights, and other lights will automatically turn on based on the surrounding brightness. Rotating it once more turns on the position lights, and another rotation activates the low beams. Then, push the entire lighting control lever forward to turn on the high beams; returning it to the original position turns off the high beams, and pulling it backward flashes the headlights once. Other lighting activation methods for the Nissan Yixuan: 1. When in the AUTO position with the ignition switch in the "ON" position and the headlight switch in the "AUTO" position, the headlights, front position lights, instrument panel lights, rear combination lights, and other lights will automatically turn on based on the surrounding brightness. 2. When the ignition switch is turned to the "OFF" position, the lights automatically turn off. Rotating the lever once then turns on the position lights, and another rotation activates the low beams. 3. Pushing the entire lighting control lever forward turns on the high beams; returning it to the original position turns off the high beams, and pulling it backward flashes the headlights once. Moving the lever upward activates the right turn signal, and moving it downward activates the left turn signal.
To turn on the Yixuan's high beams, I often do this: first start the engine, then look at the control lever on the left side of the steering wheel. Gently pull the lever backward to lock and turn on the high beams; if you just want to flash the high beams to alert others, push the lever forward. This trick is especially useful when driving at night or in rural areas with no cars around, as it helps to see the road ahead clearly. But be careful—using high beams in the city or when facing oncoming traffic can blind other drivers, which is both dangerous and illegal. It's best to confirm that the lighting system is functioning properly in the vehicle settings or check the filaments and wiring during regular maintenance. If you're unsure how to operate it, flipping through the manual or asking at a repair shop is always a reliable option. This helps avoid accidental misuse that could affect driving safety.
Turning on the Yixuan's high beams is actually quite simple, though I remember feeling a bit confused when I first learned to drive. The basic steps are: After starting the engine, locate the light control lever on the left side of the steering wheel center console. Pull the lever backward to lock the high beams in a constant-on position; push it forward to briefly flash the high beams as a signal. I recommend using them only in poorly lit environments with few streetlights, as they significantly improve visibility. Always check the dashboard indicator light to confirm successful activation. The key is not to switch them on arbitrarily, especially in heavy traffic, as misuse of high beams can easily cause accidents or result in fines. Regularly cleaning the headlight lenses to prevent dirt from affecting illumination also helps extend bulb life. With a little practice, it becomes second nature—safety first, after all.
