ACTIVATING THE AHB SYSTEM
CONDITIONS WHERE AHB WILL TURN ON/OFF AUTOMATICALLY
When all of the following conditions are met, the high beams will be automatically
turned 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 streetlights on the road ahead.
If any of the following conditions occur, the high beams will be automatically turned off:
• 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 lights turned on.
• There are many streetlights on the road ahead.
The Automatic High Beams (AHB) safety system is designed to help you see

oncoming vehicles and taillights of preceding vehicles, then automatically toggles
between high and low beams accordingly.
