How to Turn On the Vehicle Outline Lights?
1 Answers
The switch for the outline lights is generally located in one of two places: either on the turn signal lever on the left side of the steering wheel, where you can turn it on by rotating the lever; or on the light knob on the instrument panel at the lower left corner of the steering wheel, where you can turn it on by rotating the knob. Outline lights are used to make your vehicle visible to others when driving at night. The outline light switch is integrated with the light combination switch and is marked by two light symbols pointing in opposite directions. When the knob is turned to this symbol, it indicates that the outline lights are on. When the examiner asks you to get into the car, don’t rush to sit in the driver’s seat immediately. Instead, walk around the car first to perform a pre-drive check. Press all four corner buttons on the exam vehicle firmly to ensure they are recognized, as some may fail to register due to contact issues. During the light operation, note that some exam vehicles have an "AUTO" setting for the light adjustment switch. Even if the switch is set to automatic and the low beams still turn on, the system may fail you for this. Remember to engage the handbrake. This is a detail many trainees overlook during exams—either forgetting to engage the handbrake when parking or forgetting to release it when starting. Therefore, always engage the handbrake whenever you park to develop good driving habits.
