Hi, I have read through the owner's manual but I cant seem to fathom what the parking light is for? I turned it on when parking but nothing seems to happen??

Bro, are you referring to the left or right pilot light for a parked car? This is recommended if your a car is parked in a dark lane & you want to give your car some visibility to an oncoming traffic. If your car is parked on the left side of the road, turn on the R pilot light...& vice versa.

Yup. The left and right parking lights. So what will it do? Will the lights shine all the way?

It's main function is give visibility to oncoming traffic. You don't want a blur driver or night vision impaired driver to scrape or worse crash into your car.

Only the small pilot light is lit, so doesn't shine all the way..haha. It only goes off if you switch it off. Anyway, only small current is used so your car batt should be ok.

Alamak bro...your SE didn't explain all the features to your car on delivery?

Turn the headlights knob to the left. 1st click to the left will light up the R pilot light, 2nd click for L.
