Guess I set up my expectation too high.

One interesting question is that I can never turn on one set of front lights. I know we have side maker lights and the big head lights. For the lights around head lights, I am wondering what they are? DRL?

Also I know that the two lights at the very bottom on each side are fog lights. However, I can never turn on the two linear lights right above fog lights. Can anybody educate me what they are?

Also pretty disappointed to find that fog light has a yellow hue, not matching other lights. What are they thinking about?
As per many people have now already said, please read the manual. They already have given you their personal instructions AND the RTM instructions.

As for fog lights being yellow - that is CORRECT. Fog lights are meant to penetrate below the fog and light up items behind the fog. Yellow lights do not glare as much if they hit fog compared to white lights. This is a functional decision and not one based on looks.
