In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the sur-
rounding brightness levels, and may flas h or expose nearby pedestrians to the

manually rather than relying on the Automatic High Beam system.
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms etc.)
• The windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt etc.
• The windshield is cracked or damaged.
• The inside rear view mirror or ca mera sensor is deformed or dirty.
• The camera sensor temperature is extremely high.
• Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of headlights, tail lights or
fog lights.
• Vehicles ahead have headlights that are either switched off, dirty, are chang-
ing color, or are not aimed properly.
• When driving through an area of in termittently changi ng brightness and
darkness.
• When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending/descending roads, or
roads with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (such as stone-paved roads,
gravel tracks etc.)
• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a winding road.
• There is a highly reflective object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or a mir-
ror.
• The back of a vehicle ahead is highly reflective, such as a container on a truck.
• The vehicle’s headlights are damaged or dirty.
• The vehicle is listing or tilting, due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed etc.

“AUTO” mode
●
If the wiper switch is turned to the “AUTO” position while the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch is in IGNITI ON ON mode, the wipers will operate once to show
that “AUTO” mode is activated. ●
If the temperature of the rain drop sensor is 176  F (80  C) or higher, or 14  F
(-10  C) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case, operate the
wipers in any mode other than “AUTO”. Washer/wiper dual opera-
tion The wipers operate automati-
cally. (After operating several
times, the wipers operate one
more time after a short delay to
prevent dripping.)
●
The raindrop sensor judges the amount of
raindrops.
An optical sensor is adopted. It may not
operate properly when sunlight from the
rising or setting of the sun intermittently
strikes the windshield, or if bugs etc. are
present on the windshield.
