Hazard Warning Flasher
▼Hazard Warning Flasher
The hazard warning lights should
always be used when you stop on or
near a roadway in an emergency.

The hazard warning lights warn other
drivers that your vehicle is a traffic
hazard and that they must take
extreme caution when near it.

Depress the hazard warning flasher
and all the direction indicators will
flash. The hazard warning indicator
lights in the instrument cluster flash
simultaneously.
NOTE
xThe direction indicators do not work
when the hazard warning lights are
on.
xCheck local regulations about the
use of hazard warning lights while
the vehicle is being towed to verify
that it is not in violation of the law.
xIf the brake pedal is depressed while
driving on slippery roads, the
emergency stop signal system could
operate causing all the turn and lane
change signals to flash. Refer to
Emergency Stop Signal System on
page 4-78.
xWhile the emergency stop signal
system is operating, all the direction
indicators automatically flash rapidly
to caution the driver of a vehicle
following behind your vehicle of a
sudden braking situation. Refer to
Emergency Stop Signal System on
page 4-78.

System
▼Emergency Stop Signal System
If you apply the brakes suddenly while
driving at a speed of about 55 km/h
(34 mph) or faster, the emergency stop
signal system automatically and rapidly
flashes all the direction indicator lights
to caution drivers behind your vehicle
of the sudden braking situation.
NOTE
xFlashing
When you bring your vehicle to a
complete stop while all the direction
indicator lights are flashing rapidly,
the rapid
flashing of all the direction
indicator lights changes back to the
normal flashing pattern. The
direction indicator lights turn off
when you release your foot from the
brake pedal.
xOperation
xWhen the ABS operates, the
emergency stop signal system is
more likely to operate. Therefore, if
the brake pedal is depressed on a
slippery road, all of the direction
indicator lights may
flash.
xThe emergency stop signal system
does not operate when the hazard
warning light switch is pressed.

i-ACTIVSENSE
▼i-ACTIVSENSE
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term
covering a series of advanced safety
and driver support systems which
make use of cameras and sensors. The
systems consist of active safety and
pre-crash safety systems.
These systems are designed to assist
the driver in safer driving by reducing
the load on the driver and helping to
avert collisions or reduce their severity.
However, because each system has its
limitations, always drive carefully and
do not rely solely on the systems.
▼Active Safety Technology
Active Safety Technology supports safer
driving by helping the driver to
recognise potential hazards and avert
accidents.

The HBC determines the conditions in
front of the vehicle using the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) while driving in
darkness to automatically switch the
headlights between high and low
beams.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-216.
While driving the vehicle at a speed of
about 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, the
headlights are switched to high beams
when there are no vehicles ahead or
approaching in the opposite direction.
The system switches the headlights to
low beams when one of the following
occurs:
xThe system detects a vehicle or the
headlights/lights of a vehicle
approaching in the opposite
direction.
xThe vehicle is driven on roads lined
with streetlamps or on roads in
well-lit cities and towns.
xThe vehicle is driven at less than
about 20 km/h (12 mph).
xThe headlight high-beam indicator
light turns on while the high beams
are on.
1. Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)*1
*1 The recognition distance of the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) varies according to
the surrounding conditions.
The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to High Beam Control System

from its tyres onto your windscreen.
▼To Operate the System
The HBC operates to switch the
headlights automatically between high
and low beams after the ignition is
switched ON and the headlight switch
is in the AUTO and low beam position.
The HBC determines that it is dark
based on the brightness of the
surrounding area. At the same time,
the HBC indicator light (green) in the

Adaptive LED Headlights
(ALH)
*
▼Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
The ALH are a system which uses the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) to
determine the situation of a vehicle
ahead or a vehicle approaching in the
opposite direction while driving at
night to automatically switch the
illumination range of the headlights,
the illuminated area, or the
illumination brightness.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-216.
The ALH are controlled between high
and low beams as follows to assure the
driver’s visibility without dazzling a
vehicle ahead or a vehicle approaching
in the opposite direction.
Glare-Free High Beam
This feature dims only the high-beam
light shone on the vehicle ahead.
The high beams will dim while driving
at a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or faster. When the vehicle speed is
less than about 30 km/h (19 mph),
the beams switch to the low beams.
NOTE
The headlight high-beam indicator
light turns on while the high beams are
on.
Wide-Range Low Beam
This feature extends the illumination
range of the light cast by the low
beams while driving at a speed less
than about 40 km/h (25 mph).
Highway Mode
This feature shifts the illumination
angle of the light cast by the headlights
upward while driving on highways.
The distance in which the ALH can
detect objects varies depending on the
surrounding conditions.
CAUTION
¾Do not modify the suspensions or
headlight units, or remove the
camera. Otherwise, the ALH may not
operate normally.
¾Do not rely excessively on the ALH
and drive the vehicle while paying
sufficient attention to safety. Switch
the headlights between the high
beams and low beams manually if
necessary.
NOTE
Under the following conditions, the
ALH may not operate normally.
Manually switch between the high and
low beams according to the visibility,
