When driving
VENZA_OM_OM73030U_(U) Turning on the high beam headlights
With the headlights on, push
the lever forward to turn on the
high beams. Vehicles with Automatic High
Beam: When the light switch is in
position, the Automatic
High Beam system will be acti-
vated. (  P. 216)
Pull the lever back to the center
position to turn the high beams
off.
Pull the lever toward you to
turn on the high beams. Release the lever to turn them off.
You can flash the high beams
with the headlights on or off.

2142-3. Operating the lights and wipers
VENZA_OM_OM73030U_(U) ■ Daytime running light system
● To make your vehicle more visible to others, the high beam headlights
turn on automatically at a reduced intensity (vehicles with halogen head-
lights) or the LED daytime running lights turn on automatically (vehicles
with discharge headlights) whenever the engine is started and the park-
ing brake is released. Daytime running lights are not designed for use at
night.
Type A: Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch.
● Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help
improve fuel economy.
■ Headlight control sensor
■ Automatic light off system
Vehicles with smart key system
● When the headlights are on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30
seconds after a door is opened and closed if the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch has been switched to ACCESSORY or OFF mode.
● When only the tail lights are on: The tail lights turn off automatically if
the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is switched to ACCESSORY or
OFF mode and driver’s door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to
IGNITION ON mode, or turn the light switch off once and then back to the
or
position. 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.

2162-3. Operating the lights and wipers
VENZA_OM_OM73030U_(U)Automatic High Beam 
 : If equippedThe Automatic High Beam uses an in-vehicle camera sensor to
assess the brightness of streetligh ts, the lights of oncoming and
preceding vehicles, etc., and automatically turns high beam on or off
as necessary.
■ Activating the Automatic High Beam system
Push the lever away from you
with the headlight switch in
position when the
“ENGINE START STOP”
switch is in IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with smart key
system) or the engine switch
is in the “ON” position (vehi-
cles without smart key sys-
tem). The Automatic High Beam indi-
cator will come on when the
headlights are turned on auto-
matically to indicate that the
system is active.
