Lighting function
Main lighting functions
In case of lighting, the Road Traffic Safety Law
should be observed.
The head and tail lamps of the vehicle are used
to guarantee good field of view for the driver,
and provide signals for other road users:
● Position lamp- When the vehicle is traveling
or temporarily parked, it indicates the
presence and width of the vehicle, so that the
vehicle can be easily identified by other road
users.
● Low beam: Lighting up the road ahead.
When meeting, use low beam rather than
high beam to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic.
● High beam: Lighting up the road further
ahead. Always switch to low beam when
meeting.
CAUTION
Since a lot of heat produced when the
headlamp is on should dissipate through the
air vent on the headlamp, the headlamp is
not fully sealed. Wet air can also enter the
headlamps through the vents thereon, and
produce water vapor and condense or freeze
on the cool lamp housing, which is a normal
natural phenomenon, and does not affect the
lighting function and service life of the
headlamps. In the case above, stop the
vehicle at such a dry and well-ventilated
place that the water vapor can dissipate
gradually. If water accumulates in the lamp
housing, please contact the authorized
dealer.
Auxiliary lighting and signal function
The auxiliary lamps are provided for use under
special driving conditions:
● Rear fog lamp: For battery identification of
the vehicle from a distance when it is foggy.
● Daytime running lamp: For battery
identification of the vehicle during daytime
driving.
● Turn signal lamp: When the vehicle turns,
this lamp signals to warn other vehicles.
Lighting combination switch
① Lighting control knob
② Fog lamp control knob
Note: The lighting combination switch without
AHO function has no AUTO position.
CAUTION
When the engine is shut down and the
ENGINE START/STOP button is in “OFF”
position, the lamps (except the position
lamps) can stay on for up to 5min, and then
automatically go out Be sure to turn off all
lamps when parking and leaving the vehicle,
so as to avoid battery undervoltage.
