Warning buzzers may sound from inside and/
or outside the vehicle to remind you that the
remote is out of the vehicle. If the buzzer
continues even after the remote is put back
inside, place it to be within its operational
range.

When the power mode is in ON

If the remote is taken out of the vehicle, and
all doors are closed, a warning buzzer sounds
from both inside and outside the vehicle. A
warning message on the driver information
interface notifies the driver inside that the
remote is outside of the vehicle.

When the power mode is in
ACCESSORY

If the remote is taken out of the vehicle, and
all the doors are closed, a warning buzzer
sounds from outside the vehicle.

Remote Reminder

When the remote is within the system’s operational
range, and the driver’s door is closed, the warning
function cancels.

If the remote is taken out of the vehicle after the
power system has been turned on, you can no longer
change the POWER button mode or restart the
power system. Always make sure if the remote is in
your vehicle when you operate the POWER button.

Removing the remote from the vehicle through a
window does not activate the warning buzzer.

Do not put the remote on the dashboard or in the
glove box. It may cause the warning buzzer to go off.
Under some other conditions that can prevent the
vehicle from locating the remote, the warning buzzer
may also go off even if the remote is within the
system’s operational range.

Auto High-Beam

Continued

Co
ntrols

Auto High-Beam

Using a camera mounted to the inside of the windshield, this system detects light
sources ahead of the vehicle. Depending on the light source, the system
automatically switches the headlights to high beam for optimal visibility at night.

1

Auto High-Beam

The auto high-beam determines when to change the
headlight beams by responding to the brightness of
the lights ahead of your vehicle. In the following
cases, the system may not respond to the lights
properly:

The brightness of the lights from the preceding or
oncoming vehicle is intense or poor.

Visibility is poor due to the weather (rain, snow,
fog, windshield frost, etc.).

Other light sources, such as street lights and
electric billboards are illuminating the road ahead.

The brightness level of the road ahead constantly
changes.

The road is bumpy or with many curves.

A vehicle cuts in front of you, or a vehicle in front
of you is not in the preceding or oncoming
direction.

Your vehicle is tilted with a heavy load in the rear.

If you find the timing of beam changes inconvenient
for driving, change the headlight beams manually.

If you do not want the system to be activated at any
time when the headlight switch is in AUTO, consult a
dealer or disable the system.

2 Disabling or Re-enabling the System P. 199

The headlight switch is in
AUTO.

The lever is in the low beam
position.

The low beams are on and the
system recognizes that you are
driving at night.

The vehicle speed is above
25 mph (40 km/h).

The system operates when:

When the camera detects lights coming from a preceding or oncoming vehicle, the
headlights remain in low beam.

When the camera detects no lights coming from a preceding or oncoming vehicle,
the headlights change to high beam.

The view angle or distance that the camera can detect lights ahead differs
depending on conditions, such as the brightness of the lights and the weather.

To activate the system, turn the headlight
switch to AUTO and then set the headlights
to low beam. The auto high-beam indicator
will come on.

2 Light Switches P. 193

The high beams remain on unless:
• You have been driving below 15 mph (24 km/h) for an extended amount of time.
• The speed of the vehicle drops below 6 mph (10 km/h).
• The windshield wipers have been running at a high speed for more than a few

seconds.

• You enter a well lit location.

The high beams come back on once the condition that caused them to turn off no
longer exists.

If needed, you can temporarily turn the system off manually. Turn on the high
beams by pushing the lever forward until you hear a click, or flash the high beams
once by pulling the lever toward you while driving. To turn the system back on,
repeat one of the procedures.

Operating the System

1

Operating the System

For the auto high-beam to work properly:

Do not place an object that reflects light on the
dashboard.

Keep the windshield around the camera clean.
When cleaning the windshield, be careful not to
apply the windshield cleanser to the camera lens.

Do not attach an object, sticker or film to the area
around the camera.

Do not touch the camera lens.

If the camera receives a strong impact, or repairing of
the area near the camera is required, consult a dealer.

If the Some Driver Assist Systems Cannot
Operate: Camera Temperature Too High
message
appears:

Use the climate control system to cool down the
interior and, if necessary, also use defroster mode
with the airflow directed toward the camera.

Start driving the vehicle to lower the windshield
temperature, which cools down the area around
the camera.

If the Some Driver Assist Systems Cannot
Operate: Clean Front Windshield
message
appears:

Park your vehicle in a safe place, and clean the
windshield. If the message does not disappear after
you have cleaned the windshield and driven for a
while, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.

blades will get damaged.

NOTICE

Turn the washers off if no washer fluid comes out.
The pump may get damaged.

The wiper motor may stop motor operation
temporarily to prevent an overload. Wiper operation
will return to normal within a few minutes, once the
circuit has returned to normal.

If the vehicle speeds up while the wipers are
operating intermittently, the length of the wipe
interval shortens.
When the vehicle speeds up, the wiper operation’s
shortest delay setting ( ) and the LO setting become
the same.

NOTICE

In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the

This system consumes a lot of power, so turn it off
when the window has been defogged. Also, do not
use the system for a long time while the power
system is stopped. This may weaken the 12-volt
battery, making it difficult to turn the power system
on.

When the outside temperature is below 41°F (5°C),
the heated door mirror may activate automatically for
10 minutes when you set the power mode to ON.
