1 and 8 - Rotary switch for front seat heating
The front seat cushions and backrests may become heated when the ignition is on.
The current heating is turned on and regulated in steps by turning switch 1 (driver's seat) and - 8 (front passenger seat).
To turn on the heating, turn the switch from position 0 - upwards and set it to the required temperature mode - scale gradation 1-6. In this case, the selected digital indicator should be highlighted from the inside.
2 - Heated rear window
The rear window heating only works when the ignition is on. During heating, the control lamp mounted in the switch lights up.
After drying the rear window - current heating should be immediately turned off. Reducing electricity consumption has a positive effect on saving fuel consumption.
On vehicles with electrically adjustable exterior mirrors from inside the passenger compartment, the mirror surfaces are heated at the same time as the heated rear window.
Note: Pay attention. For modifications with antenna devices on the rear window, the two upper current heating filaments are equipped for the antenna and do not heat up.
3 - Fog lights
Fog lights are switched on simultaneously with external lighting: position, dipped or main beam. At the same time, the control lamp lights up.
Due to the strong glare effect, the use of fog lights is recommended strictly in compliance with the requirements of traffic regulations.
4 - Rear fog lights
They turn on only when the front fog lamps, dipped beam or high beam are on.
The control lamp in the switch lights up. They must be used in strict compliance with the rules of the road.
5 - Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
Contributes to a significant increase in vehicle stability while driving.
The main advantage of the anti-lock braking system ABS in comparison with the conventional braking system is that even with full braking on a slippery road, the wheels do not block, driving stability and maximum vehicle stability are maintained. When one of the wheels, for example, picks up speed insufficient to accelerate the car and is ready to lock up, the pressure of the brake system on it is automatically reduced. Such a regulation process is accompanied by a slight noise and twitching of the brake pedal, this is a kind of warning to the driver that the wheels are on the verge of blocking.
In this case, you should immediately slow down and change the mode of movement of the machine, taking into account the prevailing road conditions. This is especially important during ice conditions. In such conditions, even the anti-lock system cannot guarantee the stability of the machine. Therefore, the usual rules of safe traffic should not be neglected.
The ABS system is automatically activated every time the engine is started. If the vehicle is equipped with a rear axle differential lock, the system is automatically activated only after the lock is released.
The ABS operating mode is controlled by a special lamp on the instrument panel. Under normal vehicle operating conditions, the system should work constantly. Only in exceptional cases will it be preferable to turn it off for a short time.
The system is switched on and off by pressing the ABS button.
Note: When driving on gravel or slippery roads covered with loose snow, when driving is generally only permissible with extreme caution, disabling the ABS system will shorten the braking distance required for this, i.e. when the wheels are locked, an additional clod of gravel or snow collects in front of them, increasing braking efficiency.
At the same time, we must not forget that this reduces the stability of control and vehicle stability. The ABS system is also disabled when:
- check and repair of the brake system;
- when the rear axle differential lock is engaged.
As soon as the differential lock is released, either manually or automatically after reaching a speed of approximately 25 km per hour, the anti-lock braking system ABS will automatically turn on.
6 - On-board computer function switch
The on-board computer only works when the ignition is on.
7 - Automatic headlight beam throw adjustment
The regulator allows you to adjust the angle of the headlights according to the vehicle load. This reduces the dazzling effect of the headlights on oncoming vehicles. At the same time, the maximum possible conditions for the visibility of the road are created for the driver.
The shift of the direction of the light beam is carried out by turning the rotary control from the position "0" - down.
The following headlight positions correspond approximately to the following vehicle load:
- 0 - a car with two adult passengers and an empty luggage compartment.
- I - a car with passengers according to the number of seats and with an empty luggage compartment.
- II - a car with passengers according to the number of seats and a fully loaded luggage compartment in compliance with the norms for the permissible load on the rear axle.
- III - a car with a driver and a fully loaded luggage compartment in compliance with the permissible load on the rear axle.
If the car with a trailer, or its loading differs from the above, you can choose intermediate positions of the recommended headlight positions. When determining the vehicle load, the estimated weight of one passenger or driver is 75 kg.
Note: Stationary headlight adjustment with the use of special equipment is always carried out only in the original (mostly) headlight position, marked on the rotary control with a number "0".
