tem will operate when the headlamp is
ON. To turn off the AFLS, turn the knob to
the other position. After turning the AFLS
off, headlamp swiveling no longer occurs,
but leveling operates continuously.If the AFLS malfunction indicator comes
on, the AFLS is not working properly.

uously remains on, take your vehicle to
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer and have
the system checked.
