First, open the car door. Enter the driver's cabin, step on the car's brake pedal, and press the car's one-touch start button; otherwise, the fog lights cannot be turned on. After the vehicle is started, locate the lighting control lever. The fog light switch is located on the lighting control lever. On the vehicle's lighting control lever, find the position of the fog light symbol and rotate the control ring. Align the front fog light symbol with the activation point to turn on the front fog lights. Rotate the control ring to align the rear fog light symbol with the activation point to turn on the rear fog lights.

I have quite some experience with turning on the fog lights in a Škoda. Generally, it's operated via the control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel—look for the knob or button marked with the fog light icon. First, make sure the headlights are already on, then gently twist the knob or press the fog light button. A small light icon will illuminate on the dashboard, indicating the fog lights are activated. Using these lights in foggy conditions improves safety because, unlike headlights, they don’t create glare. But never turn them on in clear weather, as they can blind oncoming drivers. Different Škoda models like the Octavia or Kodiaq might have slightly different positions for the controls, but they’re usually in a similar area. Regular maintenance should include checking if the lights function properly to avoid any last-minute failures. Safety comes first when driving—slow down in foggy conditions for extra reliability.

Operating the fog lights on a ŠKODA depends on the specific model. For example, in my car, there's a rotary knob on the left side of the steering wheel – turning it to the fog light position activates them. You'll need to have the headlights on first, otherwise the system might not respond. Once activated, you'll see a yellow or green indicator light up on the dashboard. Fog lights are specifically designed for thick fog, with the light beam directed downward to avoid glare. If there's no fog in the city, don't use them unnecessarily to save power and avoid disturbing others. Checking if the lights are working properly is simple – just test them in a dark area. For maintenance, don't overlook issues like wiring aging, and occasionally wipe off dust to maintain brightness. Driving safety is paramount, and turning on fog lights in foggy conditions can significantly reduce risks.

My suggestion is to directly locate the control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel. Rotate the fog light knob, and the lights will turn on, provided that the headlights are already activated. Simple, right? These lights are designed for foggy conditions, allowing you to see the road clearly without causing glare. Just check the dashboard indicator light each time you turn them on to confirm.
