HIGH BEAM ASSIST (LED
HEADLIGHT ONLY)
You can use this function to set the head-
lights to change between low beam and high
beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in
front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlights from high beam to
low beam.
The system automatically adapts the low
beam headlight range depending on the dis-
tance to the other vehicle. Once the system
no longer detects any other vehicles, it
switches on the high beam headlights again.
The system's optical sensor is located behind
the windshield near the overhead control
panel.
WARNING
•The high beam assist system is a conve-
nience but is not a substitute for safe
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driv-
ing practices and switch the high beams
and low beam manually when necessary.
•The high beam or low beam may not
switch automatically under the follow-
ing conditions. Switch the high beam
and low beam manually.
–During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.).
–When a light source similar to a head-
light or tail light is in the vicinity of
the vehicle.
–When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are
turned off, when the color of the light
is affected due to foreign materials
on the lights, or when the light beam
is out of position.
–When there is a sudden, continuous
change in brightness.
–When driving on a road that passes
over rolling hills, or a road that has
level differences.
–When driving on a road with many
curves.–When a sign or mirror-like surface is
reflecting intense light towards the
front of the vehicle.
–When the container, etc. being towed
by a leading vehicle is reflecting in-
tense light.
–When a headlight on your vehicle is
damaged or dirty.
–When the vehicle is leaning at an
angle due to a punctured tire, being
towed, etc.
•The timing of switching the low beam
and high beam may change under the
following situations.
–The brightness of the headlights of
the oncoming vehicle or leading ve-
hicle.
–The movement and direction of the
oncoming vehicle and the leading ve-
hicle.
–When only one light on the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle is illumi-
nated.
–When the oncoming vehicle or the
leading vehicle is a two-wheeled ve-
hicle.
–Road conditions (incline, curve, the
road surface, etc.).
