Turn signal indicator
The blinking green arrows on the instru-
ment panel show the direction indicated

tion or when the turn signal lever is pulled

Auto light position (if equipped)
When the light switch is in the AUTO light
position, the taillights and headlights will
turn ON or OFF automatically depending
on the amount of light outside the vehi-
cle.
High beam operation
To turn on the high beam headlights,
push the lever away from you. Pull it back
for low beams.
The high beam indicator will light when
the headlight high beams are switched
on.
To prevent the battery from being dis-
charged, do not leave the lights on for a
prolonged time whilst the engine is not
running.
CAUTION
• Never place anything over sensor
(1) located on the instrument
panel. This will ensure better
auto-light system control.
• Don’t clean the sensor using a
window cleaner. The cleaner may
leave a light film which could
interfere with sensor operation.
• If your vehicle has window tint or
other types of metallic coating on
the front windscreen, the Auto
light system may not work prop-
erly.

nals

turn signals to function. To turn on the
turn signals, move the lever up or down

ment panel indicate which turn signal is

turn is completed.
If the indicator continues to flash after a
turn, manually return the lever to the OFF
position.
To signal a lane change, move the turn
signal lever slightly and hold it in position

tion when released.

tions, and it is especially helpful after
dawn and before sunset.
The daytime running lights turn off when:
Type A
1. The parking light switch is ON.
2. The engine stops.
3. The parking brake is engaged.

Headlight levelling device
(if equipped)
Manual type
To adjust the headlight beam level
according to the number of passengers
and loading weight in the luggage area,
turn the beam levelling switch.
The higher the number of the switch
position, the lower the headlight beam
level. Always keep the headlight beam at
the proper levelling position, or head-
lights may dazzle other road users.Listed below are the examples of proper
switch settings. For loading conditions
other than those listed below, adjust the
switch position so that the beam level
may be the nearest as the condition
obtained according to the list.

✽NOTICE - Bi-Function
Projection Headlamp
This headlamp is bi-function type that
switches the low beam to high or the
high beam to low using solenoid system.
So, the moving sound may be heard
when the headlamp switches the low
beam to high or the high beam to low
and it does not indicate malfunction of
the headlamp.
❈Traffic Change (MFR Headlamp)
(For Europe)
The low beam light distribution is asym-
metric. If you go abroad to a country with
opposite traffic direction, this asymmetric
part will dazzle oncoming car driver. To
prevent dazzle, ECE regulation demand
several technical solutions (ex. automatic
change system, adhesive tape, down
aiming). These headlamps are designed
to be masked with adhesive tape accord-
ing to below picture.
