Front camera detection
●
In the following situations, the high beams may not be automatically changed to the
shaded high beams:
•
When a vehicle cuts in front of your vehicle
•
When another vehicle crosses in front of the vehicle
•
When vehicles ahead are repeatedly detected and then hidden due to repeated
curves, road dividers or roadside trees
•
When a vehicle ahead approaches from a far lane
•
When a vehicle ahead is far away
•
When a vehicle ahead has no lights
•
When the lights of a vehicle ahead are dim
•
When a vehicle ahead is reflecting strong light, such as the headlights of your
vehicle
•
Situations in which the sensors may not operate properly:
●
The high beams may change to the shaded high beams if a vehicle ahead that is using
fog lights without its headlights turned on is detected.
●
House lights, street lights, traffic signals, and illuminated billboards or signs and other
reflective objects may cause the high beams to change to the shaded high beams,
cause the high beams not to change to the shaded high beams, or change the area
that is not illuminated.
●
The following may change the speed at which the shaded areas change or the timing
at which the headlights change to the low beams:
•
The brightness of lights of vehicles ahead
•
The movement and direction of vehicles ahead
•
The distance between the vehicle and a vehicle ahead
•
When a vehicle ahead only has lights illuminated on one side
•
When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle
•
The condition of the road (gradient, curve, condition of the road surface, etc.)
•
The number of passengers and amount of luggage
●
The light distribution control of the headlights may not match the driver's expectations
●
Bicycles and other small vehicles may not be detected.
●
In the following situations, the system may not be able to correctly detect the bright-
ness of the surroundings. This may cause the low beams to remain on or the high
beams to flash or dazzle pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In such a case, it is necessary
to manually change between the high beams and low beams.
•
When there are lights similar to headlights or tail lights in the surrounding area

beams.
•
When use of the high beams is inappropriate or when the high beams may be
flashing or dazzling pedestrians or other drivers.
•
When the vehicle is used in an area in which vehicles travel on the opposite side
of the road of the country for which the vehicle was designed, for example using a
vehicle designed for right-hand traffic in a left-hand traffic area, or vice versa
•
When it is necessary to disable the system:

High-beam System will operate.
AHB (Automatic High Beam)
The Automatic High Beam uses a front camera located on the upper portion of the
windshield to detect the brightness of the lights of vehicles ahead, streetlights, etc.,
and automatically changes the head lights between the high beams and low beams.
WARNING

Precautions for driving in the rain
Observe the following precautions when driving in the rain.
●
Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the windows
may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
●
Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be especially
slippery.
●
Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain, as there
is a risk of a layer of water forming between the tires and the road surface,
preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
