Turning on and off the fog lights of the Volkswagen Polo are two simple and quick operations that can be done independently. To turn on the fog lights, we need to turn on the vehicle's instrument panel and rotate the knob located to the left of the dashboard just behind the steering wheel to select the fog light symbol.

To turn off the fog lights, we need to rotate the knob to the zero symbol, which indicates that all the vehicle's lights have been turned off, after which we can turn off the instrument panel. Be careful not to leave the vehicle's lights on as it may drain the vehicle's battery.
