Auto High-Beam
The front sensor camera detects the light sources ahead of the vehicle such as the
lights of a preceding or oncoming vehicle, or street lights. When you are driving at

beam depending on the situation.
When all of the following conditions have been met, the auto high-beam indicator
comes on and the auto high-beam is activated. •The power mode is in ON.

If the auto high-beam indicator does not come on even when all the conditions have
been met, carry out the following procedure and the indicator will come on.

The auto high-beam system does not always operate
in every situation. This system is just for assisting the
driver. Always observe your surroundings and switch
the headlights between high beam and low beam
manually if necessary.
If you find the timing of beam changes inconvenient
for driving, change the headlight beams manually.
The range and the distance at which the camera can
recognize varies de pending on conditions
surrounding your vehicle.
For the auto high-beam to work properly:
•Do not place an object that reflects light on the

apply the windshield cleanser to the camera lens.
•Do not attach an object, sticker or film to the area
