SAFETY & EMERGENCY FEATURES
NOTE: If a passenger’s seat belt is fully extended, then retracted even slightly, 
the Automatic locking retractor (ALR) will prevent it from being re-extended 
beyond that point, unless fully retracted again. This feature is used to help 
hold child restraint systems securely.
To find more information about seat belts, and how to install a child re\
straint 
system, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
Moving the lever downward will allow the door to be opened only from the\
 outside.
Automatic High Beams (AHB)
(1) With the engine switch in IGNITION ON mode and headlight switch tu\
rned to “AUTO” position, push lever away from you.
The  “
” indicator will come on when the headlights are turned on 
automatically to indicate that the system is active.
(2) Pull the lever back toward you to turn the AHB system off.
     The  “
” will turn off and the “” turns on.
When all of these conditions are met, high beams will be automatically t\
urned on 
(after approximately 1 second): • Vehicle speed is above approximately 21 mph (34 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.
• There are no oncoming or preceding vehicles with headlights or tail\
 lights  turned on.
• There are few street lights on the road ahead.
If any of these conditions occur, the system is designed to automaticall\
y turn off 
high beams: • Vehicle speed drops below approximately 17 mph (27 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is not dark.
• Oncoming or preceding vehicles have headlights or tail lightsturned on.
• There are many streetlights on the road ahead.
ACTIVATING THE AHB SYSTEM
CONDITIONS WHERE AHB WILL TURN ON/OFF AUTOMATICALLY 
AHB is a safety system designed to help drivers see more of what’s ah\
ead at 
nighttime without dazzling other drivers. When enabled, AHB uses an in-v\
ehicle 
camera to help detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and tail light\
s of 
preceding vehicles, then automatically switches between high and low bea\
ms 
as appropriate to provide the most light possible and enhance forward vi\
sibility. 
By using high beams more frequently, the system may allow earlier detect\
ion of 
pedestrians and obstacles.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on AHB op\
eration, 
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to \
use it.
