AFS (Adaptive Front-lighting System) secure s excellent visibility at intersections
and on curves by automatically adjusting the direction of the light axis of the
headlights according to vehicle speed and the degree of the tire’s angle as con-
trolled by steering input. AFS operates at speeds of 6 mph (10 km/h) or higher.
●
When the steering wheel or turn signal lever is operated while the headlights
are on (low beam), a cornering light w ill turn on and light up the direction of

HD Radio™ Technology troubleshooting guide
■
Reception sensitivity ●
Maintaining perfect radio recept ion at all times is difficult due to the continually chang-
ing position of the antenna, differences in signal strength and surrounding objects, such
as trains, transmitters, etc. ●
The radio antenna is mounted inside the rear window. To maintain clear radio reception,
do not attach metallic window tinting or other metallic objects to the antenna wire
mounted inside the rear window. Experience Cause Action
Mismatch of time align-
ment- a user may hear a
short period of program-
ming replayed or an echo,
stutter or skip. The radio stations analog
and digital volume are not
properly aligned or the sta-
tion is in ballgame mode. None, radio broadcast
issue. A user can contact
the radio station.
Sound fades, blending in
and out. Radio is shifting between
analog and digital audio. Reception issue, may
clear-up as the vehicle
continues to be driven. Set
“HD Radio” to off, can
force radio in an analog
audio.
Audio mute condition
when an HD2 /HD3 multi-
cast channel had been
playing. The radio does not have
access to digital signals at
the moment. This is normal behavior,
wait until the digital signal
returns. If out of the cover-
age area, seek a new sta-
tion.
Audio mute delay when
selecting an HD2 /HD3
multicast channel preset. The digital multicast con-
tent is not available until
HD Radio™ broadcast can
be decoded and make the
audio available. This takes
up to 7 seconds. This is normal behavior,
wait for the audio to
become available.
