LIGHTING
The 4-light multi-reflector type headlights are adopted with new styling.
Along with the adoption of the 4-beam headlights, the daytime running light system has been changed
from the '99 model type that uses resistors to dim the low beams. On the 2000 model, the daytime running
light is a type that dims the right and left high beams through a series circuit.
91 BODYÐLIGHTWEIGHT AND HIGHLY RIGID BODY
DOORS
A twin±pipe type side impact protection beams are mounted in the center space between the front door panels.
Similarly, a side impact protection beam is provided in the rear door.
93 BODYÐLIGHTWEIGHT AND HIGHLY RIGID BODY
Impact Absorbing Structure for Side Collision
Impact energy of a side collision directed to the cabin area is dispersed throughout the body via pillar reinforcements,
side impact protection beams, floor cross members, etc. This dispersion of energy keeps the energy directed to the
cabin to a minimum level. In additon, the body is made highly rigid through the cabin space. And, in order to make
the door more energy absorbent, a closed cross section configuration is provided at the belt line area of the front and
rear doors.
Also, a soft upper interior construction has been adopted. With this type of constrution, if the occupant's head collides
against the roof side rail in reaction to a collision, the inner panel of the roof side rail collapses to reduct the impact.

DESCRIPTION
The new Camry has the following features:
Item
Outline
Daytime Running Light System
This system is designed to automatically activate the headlights during the
daytime to keep the car highly visible to other vehicles.
As in the previous model, the headlights are activated by reducing the nor-
mal high beam brightness.
The basic construction and operation are the same as in the previous model.
Light Auto Turn±Off System
When the ignition key is turned from the ON or ACC to LOCK position and
the driver's door is opened with the taillights and headlights turned on, this
system automatically turns them off.
The basic construction and operation are the same as in the previous model.
Light Auto Turn±Off System
This system is useful when entering the vehicle and inserting the ignition key
into the cylinder in the dark.
2 types of this system are used in the new Camry.
In the first type, when the doors are opened, this system turns on the illu-
minations around ignition key cylinder and dome light (only when the con-
trol switch is set to the DOOR position) simultaneously. These lights fade
out in about 15 seconds. However, under certain conditions such as when all
doors are locked, the lights will turn off immediately even if the system is
operating.
The basic construction and operation are the same as in the '97 Avalon.
In the second type, when the door is opened, this system turns on the illu-
minations around the ignition key cylinder. This illumination remains on for
about 5 seconds after the door is closed.

The daytime running light control sensor
is on the top of the passenger 's side
instrument panel.
Do not place anything on the instrument
panel, and/or do not affix anything on the
windshield to block this sensor.High±Low beamsÐFor high beams, turn
the headlights on and push the lever away
from you (position 1). Pull the lever to-
ward you (position 2) for low beams.
The headlight high beam indicator light
(blue light) on the instrument panel will
tell you that the high beams are on.
Flashing the high beam headlights
(position 3)ÐPull the lever all the way
back. The high beam headlights turn off
when you release the lever.
You can flash the high beam headlights
with the knob turned to ºOFFº.TURN SIGNALS
To signal a turn, push the headlight/
turn signal lever up or down to position
1.
The key must be in the ºONº position.
The lever automatically returns after you
make a turn, but you may have to return
it by hand after you change lanes.
To signal a lane change, move the lever
up or down to the pressure point (position
2) and hold it.
If the turn signal indicator lights (green
lights) on the instrument panel flash faster
than normal, a front or rear turn signal
bulb is burned out.
