What is the low beam light symbol?
2 Answers
The low beam light symbol is green, with the light beam angled downward. The low beam is designed for close-range illumination, featuring a wide coverage angle (160 degrees) but a short projection distance. The focus cannot be adjusted, and the light typically reaches about 30 to 40 meters. The emitted light is diffused, illuminating a large area nearby. For night driving, the high beam is often used as well. The high beam symbol is blue, with the light beam projecting straight without any tilt. The intensity of the light is adjusted based on the filament distance. The high beam focuses its light parallelly, resulting in a more concentrated and brighter beam that can illuminate distant and high objects.
I always love studying the icons on the dashboard while driving, and the low beam indicator is the most noticeable—it's that little green bulb symbol with light radiating diagonally from the top left to the bottom right, looking super clear. When I first got the car, I was a bit confused too, but later I realized that just pulling the light control lever toward me would turn this indicator on. This light shines steadily without blinding oncoming drivers like high beams do. It's perfect for driving on dark suburban roads—the illumination range is just right, making road signs visible without disturbing others. Occasionally, it also comes in handy during rainy or foggy weather, though its penetration isn't as strong as fog lights. My car also has a feature where the low beams automatically turn on when shifted into P mode, which is super convenient.
