Additional high beam headlights are used together with the high beam of the main headlights, and must be switched off when switching to low beam. These headlights are installed in pairs, their centers must be located at a distance of at least 350 mm from each other, at the same distance from the central axis of the car and at a height of 610-1060 mm from the ground (A, figure C:13). Fog lights are designed for use in conditions of limited visibility (fog or snowfall). The outer edge of the fog lamp must be no more than 400 mm from the edge of the vehicle (B, Figure C:14).
When installing the rear fog light/lights, please observe the following rules:
Any part of the luminous surface of the rear fog lamp must be located at a distance of not less than 250 mm and not more than 1.0 m from the ground and not closer than 100 mm from the luminous surface of any brake light.
All vehicles equipped with rear fog lamps must have a corresponding indicator lamp that comes on when the fog lamps on the vehicle or trailer are switched on.
The rear fog light must be connected so that it can be switched off independently of the front headlights (including the back) must be switched on only together with the parking lights (figure C:14).
Use fog lights only in poor visibility conditions; turn them off when the vehicle is parked.
Installing additional high beam headlights or fog lights
The instructions below apply equally to the installation of additional high beam headlights or fog lights, only their location and the method of connecting the power supply differ.
NOTE: Additional high beam headlamps must only be switched on simultaneously with the high beam headlamps. Fog lamps must operate together with the main headlamps or parking lamps.
1. Disconnect the ground wire from the battery.
2. Mark the locations of the headlight mountings on the bumper or valance and drill 10 mm diameter holes. Insert the headlight mounting stud into the hole and secure it with the nut and lock washer included in the kit.
3. Connect the headlights to the vehicle's electrical system according to the diagram in Figure C:14. Install a lug on each headlight wire and attach the wires to the four-way splitter.
4. Mount the relay near the battery or anywhere else where there is a wire connected to the positive battery terminal. Drill a 3mm diameter hole and secure the relay with a self-tapping screw.
5. Connect the body and the relay mounting screw with a ground wire.
6. Using the second wire, connect terminal 5 of the relay to the four-way splitter connector.
7. Install the switch on the bracket in a convenient location for the driver. Secure the bracket with two self-tapping screws, drilling two 3 mm diameter holes for this.
8. Connect the wire from terminal 1 of the relay to the switch.
9. Connect the center terminal of the switch to ground. 10. Connect the "D" terminal of the switch to the high beam power supply circuit wire of the main headlights (when installing additional high beam headlights) or low beam headlights (when installing fog lights).
11. Connect the red wire from terminal "3" of the relay to the positive terminal of the battery or another contact that is under voltage from the battery.
12. Connect the ground wire to the battery and check the operation of the headlights.
Rear Fog Lights - Installation
The position of the rear fog lamps must comply with certain rules, as set out above. No part of the lamp lens must be less than 250 mm or more than 1 m from the ground. The lamp must be at least 100 mm from any brake light. In most cases, the existing bumper mounting bolts can be used to mount the lamp (depends on the design of the bracket supplied with the flashlight). If necessary, drill a hole to mount the light. Be careful not to damage electrical wiring, brake pipes, etc. located behind the panel when drilling the hole. Protect the edges of the hole from corrosion.
When installing rear fog lights, make sure that the drainage slot in the lens (if available) located below The wires from the lights should be routed to the switch on the dashboard, and it is advisable to pass them through existing holes with rubber seals (for example, for license plate light wires).
Wire from rear fog light (B, Figure C:14) attaches to the switch on the dashboard. Install the switch bracket in a convenient location for the driver, securing it with two self-tapping screws, insert the switch into the bracket and connect the fog lamp to the switch.
