AUTO Light – When the light switch is in the AUTO Light position, the tail lights and headlights will turn
ON/OFF automatically depending on the amount of light outside the vehicle.
Low Beam Assist-Dynamic (LBA-D) / Dynamic Bending Light (DBL)* – LBA can help improve visibility

controls the aiming direction based on steering angle and speed.
When the light switch is in the AUTO light position, LBA will activate.
