【4】Troubleshooting……

Typically, driving lights are mounted above the front bumper about 14 cm -30 inches from the ground to provide

extra high beam illumination. Driving lights can be mounted below the bumper, although they will not be as effective

because the light will hit the ground sooner and reduce the range of the light.
Visual aim is made with the center of the beam hot spot 1.5 inches below the lamp center at 25feet with the lamp

facing straight forward. (see below.)

● Do not use driving lights into

oncoming traffic.

Driving lights should neverbe

the only forward light source.

Driving lights should only be

used with the headlamp high

beams.
