AFLS (Adaptive Front LightingSystem) a.k.a. DBL (DynamicBending Light) (if equipped)
Adaptive front lighting system uses
the steering angle and vehicle speed
to help maximize your field of vision
by swiveling and leveling the head-
lamp.
Change the switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when the engine is running. The
adaptive front lighting system will
operate when the headlamps are
ON. To turn off the AFLS, change the
switch to other positions. After turn-
ing the AFLS off, headlamp swiveling
no longer occurs, but the leveling will
operate continuously. If the AFLS malfunction indicator
comes on, the AFLS is not working
properly. Drive to the nearest safe
location and restart the engine. If the
indicator continuously remains on,
we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
