- Unauthorized Modification: It is prohibited to modify the product circuit, power, lighting color, and sealing structure without authorization. Doing so will void the warranty and may cause safety hazards such as short circuits and fires.
- Heat Generation: When the lights are working, they will generate slight heat, which is normal. It is forbidden to touch the high-temperature parts of the lamp body with bare hands (to avoid burns). Do not place flammable, explosive, or melting objects near the lamp body.
- Children Safety: Children are prohibited from coming into contact with this product, installation tools, and wiring to prevent accidental ingestion of small parts, electric shock, or scratches from tools.
- Abnormal Conditions: If abnormal conditions such as water ingress, fogging, flashing lights, non-illumination, overheating of the circuit, or odor are found, immediately turn off the vehicle power, stop using this product, and promptly contact after-sales maintenance.

5. Setup and Installation
Preparation: Remove all protective films from the device before installation.
-
Determine the Installation Position:
Align the front lights with the preset installation positions on both sides of the vehicle front. Ensure that key components are not blocked after installation, the light irradiation direction is unobstructed, and the lights fit the body lines to ensure installation aesthetics.
-
Fix the Light Bracket:
For special vehicle types like yours, no additional mounting bracket is typically required. Gently pry and remove the original front light assembly (if present) to avoid damaging the body buckle. Replace it with this product, aligning it with the installation holes. Embed the new light into the opening, adjusting the angle to ensure it is closely attached to the vehicle body, firmly installed, with no looseness, and a flat, beautiful appearance.
-
Connect the Wiring Harness:
- Locate the Light Control Circuit: At the front of the vehicle, use a multimeter to accurately confirm each function line: position light positive pole, brake light positive pole, turn signal light positive pole, reverse light positive pole (if applicable), and common negative pole (usually a black wire).
- Connect the Wiring Harness: Connect each function wire of the new light's wiring harness to the corresponding vehicle line one by one. Typically, the red wire corresponds to the positive pole, and the black wire corresponds to the negative pole. Tightly wrap the connection points with insulating tape to ensure a firm connection, no exposed wires, no poor contact, and to avoid short circuits.
- Arrange the Wires: Properly fix the connected wiring harness inside the vehicle body, avoiding it being squeezed or worn, and ensuring it does not affect the normal work of other vehicle components.
6. Operating Instructions
-
Test and Debug:
Turn on the vehicle power supply and test each function of the light in sequence:
- Turn on the position light to confirm it is normally on.
- Step on the brake pedal to confirm the brake light is brightly on.
- Turn on the left and right turn signal lights to confirm they flash normally.
- Shift into reverse gear to confirm the reverse light is normally on (if applicable).
During the test, check that the light brightness is uniform, there is no flicker, no extinction, no abnormal heating of the line, the light is firmly installed, and there is no looseness or abnormal noise. If all checks pass, the installation is complete.
-
Daytime Running Light (DRL) Function:
When the DRL function is activated, the lights will display a flowing light sequence initially, then remain steadily bright in your chosen color (White, Yellow, or Ice Blue).
DRL: Flowing light on startup, then steady bright. -
Turn Signal Function:
When the turn signal is activated, the lights will display a dynamic, flowing amber (yellow) light sequence in the direction of the turn.
Turn Signal: Dynamic flowing amber light.
7. Maintenance and Storage
- Cleaning: Turn off the device before cleaning. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the surface. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: Store in a dry place at room temperature (15°C - 35°C).
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues, please refer to the following:
- Lights Not Working/Flickering: Check all wiring connections for tightness and proper insulation. Ensure the vehicle's power is correctly supplied.
- Water Ingress/Fogging: If moisture is observed inside the lamp, immediately disconnect power and contact support. This may indicate an improper seal.
- Overheating/Odor: Disconnect power immediately. This could indicate a short circuit or electrical fault. Do not use the product until inspected.
- Inconsistent Brightness: Verify all connections are secure. If the issue persists, it may indicate a fault with the LED unit.
For persistent issues not covered here, please contact customer support.
