Controls
Auto High-Beam (High Beam Support System)*
Uses the camera attached to the windsh ield, monitors the space ahead of your
vehicle, and automatically changes th e low beam headlights to high beam
headlights when necessary.1 Auto High-Beam (High Beam Support System)*
The auto high-beam determines when to change the
headlight beams by responding to the brightness of
the lights ahead of your vehicle. In the following
cases, however, the system may not respond to the
lights properly:
•The brightness of the lights from the preceding or
oncoming vehicle is intense or poor.
•Visibility is poor due to the weather (rain, snow,
fog, windshield frost, etc.).
•Other light sources, such as streetlights and electric
billboards are illumina ting the road ahead.
•The brightness level of th e road ahead constantly
changes.
•The road is bumpy or has many curves.
•A vehicle ahead of you suddenly cuts you off or is
not traveling in the a ppropriate direction.
•Your vehicle is tilted due to a heavy load in the rear.
If you find the timing of beam changes inconvenient
for driving, change the headlight beams manually.
■The headlight switch is in
AUTO.
■The lever is in the low beam
position.
■The system recognizes that you
are driving at night and the
low beam headlights come on.
■The vehicle speed is above 25
mph (40 km/h).
The system operates when:
The camera is not detecting any lights coming from preceding or oncoming
vehicles: The headlights change to high beams.
The camera detects lights coming from a preceding or oncoming vehicle: The
headlights are return ed to low beams.
The view angle or distance that the camera can detect lights ahead differs
depending on conditions, such as the brightness of the lights and the weather.
The system changes between high and low beam headlights when:

The auto high-beam indicator (Green) comes
on.
■Temporary cancellation
The auto high-beam operation is temporarily canceled while:
• You are continuously driving at a speed below 15 mph (24 km/h).
• The vehicle speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h).
• The windshield wipers run at high speed for more than a few seconds.
The system operation resumes once the condit ion that caused it to cancel improves.
■To Operate the System1To Operate the System
For the auto high-beam to work properly:
•Do not place an object that reflects light on the
dashboard.
•Keep the windshield around the camera clean.
When cleaning the windshield, be careful not to
apply the windshield cleanser to the camera lens.
•Do not attach an object, sticker or film in the area
around the camera.
•Do not touch the camera lens.
If the camera receives a st rong impact, or repairing of
the area near the camera is required, consult a dealer.
To help reduce the likel ihood that high interior
temperatures will cause the camera system to shut
off, when parking, find a sh ady area or face the front
of the vehicle away from the sun.
If you use a reflective sun shade, do not allow it to
cover the camera housing. Covering the camera can
concentrate heat on the camera.
If the Can Not Operate: message appears:
Park your vehicle in a safe place. Wipe away debris
blocking the windshield, then start driving again. If
the message remains on even after driving for a while
with the clean windshield, have your vehicle checked
by a dealer.
