adaptive front lighting system
(AFLS), it will also operate when the
headlamp is ON.
✽NOTICE
If your vehicle has window tint or
other types of coating on the front
windshield, the Auto light system
may not work properly.
AFLS (Adaptive Front Lighting
System) (if equipped)
Adaptive front lighting system uses
the steering angle and vehicle speed,
to keep your field of vision wide by
swiveling and leveling the headlamp.
Change the switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when the engine is running. The
adaptive front lighting system will
operate when the headlamp is ON. To
turn off the AFLS, change the switch
to other positions. After turning the
AFLS off, headlamp swiveling no
longer occurs, but leveling operates
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 remains on, have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized K900
Kia dealer.
