When driving
■
Daytime running light system
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the headlights turn on
automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever the hybrid system is started
and the parking brake is released. Daytime running lights are not designed
for use at night.
For U.S.A.: Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch.
■ Headlight control sensor
■ Automatic light off system
●When the headlights are on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30 sec-
onds after all doors are closed with the “POWER” switch OFF. (The lights
turn off immediately if the button on the key is pressed after all
doors are locked.)
● When only the tail lights are on: The tail lights turn off automatically if the
“POWER” switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned OFF and the
driver’s door is opened.
● If any of the doors or trunk lid is left open, the lights automatically turn off
after 20 minutes.
To turn the lights on again, turn the “POWER” switch to ON mode, or turn the
headlight switch off and then back to the or position.
■ Customization
Settings of light sensor sensitivity can be changed. ( P. 421)
The sensor may not function properly if
an object is placed on the sensor, or any-
thing that blocks the sensor is affixed to
the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
