*: If equipped
The SRH (Steering Responsive
Headlights) is a function which,
according to the steering wheel
operation and vehicle speed
when the vehicle is being driven
forward, automatically adjusts
the angle of the headlights to
illuminate intersections and cor-
ners, improving visibility.
This function operates when the
vehicle speed is 8 km/h or higher.
■Tu r n i n g S R H o f f
The SRH can be turned off
through a setting on the meter.
( P.400)
When the SRH is off, the SRH OFF
indicator will illuminate.

■Conditions to turn the high
beams on/off automatically
●When all of the following condi-
tions are met, the high beams will
be turned on autom atically (after
approximately 1 second):
• The vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 20 mph (32 km/h) or more.
• The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.
• There are no vehicles ahead with headlights or tail lights turned on.

approximately 10 mph (16 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is not dark.
• Vehicles ahead have their head- lights or tail lights turned on.
• There are many streetlights on the
road ahead.
■Stereo camera detection infor-
mation
●If EyeSight is malfunctioning or
temporarily disabled, the high

●The high beams m ay not be auto-
matically turned off in the following
situations:
• When a vehicle suddenly appears
from around a curve
• When the vehicle is cut in front of by another vehicle
• When vehicles ahead cannot be
High Beam Assist*
The high beam assist uses
the stereo camera located
behind the upper portion of
the windshield to assess the
brightness of the lights of
vehicles ahead, street-
lights, etc., and automati-
cally turns the high beams
on or off as necessary.
WARNING
■Limitations of the high beam
assist
Do not overly rely on the high
beam assist. Always drive safely,
taking care to o bserve your sur-
roundings and turning the high
beams on or off manually if nec-
essary.
■To prevent incorrect opera-
tion of the high beam assist
system
Do not overload the vehicle.

detected due to repeated curves,
road dividers or roadside trees
• When vehicles ahead appear in a
faraway lane on a wide road
• When the lights of vehicles ahead are not on
●The high beams may be turned off
if a vehicle ahead that is using fog
lights without its headlights turned
on is detected.
●House lights, street lights, traffic
signals, and illumi nated billboards
or signs and other reflective
objects may cause the high
beams to change to the low
beams, or the low beams to
remain on.
●The following factors may affect
the amount of time taken for the
high beams to turn on or off:
• The brightness of the headlights,
fog lights, and ta il lights of vehi-
cles ahead
• The movement and direction of
vehicles ahead
• When a vehicle ahead only has operational lights on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradi-
ent, curve, condi tion of the road
surface, etc.)
• The number of passengers and
amount of luggage in the vehicle
• When there is a lag in response due to the limitat ions of the detec-
tion range of the stereo camera
●The high beams may turn on or off
unexpectedly.
●Bicycles or similar vehicles may
not be detected.
●In the following situations the sys-
tem may not be abl e to correctly
detect the surrounding brightness
level. This may cause the low
beams to remain on or the high
beams to flash or dazzle pedestri-
ans or vehicles ahead. In such a
case, it is necess ary to manually
switch between the high and low
beams.
• When driving in inclement weather (heavy rain, snow, fog, sand-
storms, etc.)
• When the windshi eld is obscured
by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• When the windshield is cracked or damaged
• When the stereo camera is deformed or dirty
• When the temperature of the ste-
reo camera is extremely high
• When the surrounding brightness level is equal to that of headlights,
tail lights or fog lights
• When headlights or tail lights of vehicles ahead are turned off,
dirty, changing color, or not aimed
properly
• When the vehicle is hit by water,
snow, dust, etc. from a preceding
vehicle
• When driving through an area of
intermittently changing brightness
and darkness
• When frequently and repeatedly
driving ascending/descending
roads, or roads with rough, bumpy
or uneven surfaces (such as
stone-paved roads, gravel roads,
etc.)
• When frequently and repeatedly
taking curves or driving on a wind-
ing road
• When there is a h ighly reflective
object ahead of the vehicle, such
as a sign or mirror
• When the back of a preceding
vehicle is highly reflective, such as
a container on a truck
• When the vehicle’s headlights are
damaged or dirty, or are not aimed
properly
• When the vehicle is listing or titling
due to a flat tire, a trailer being
towed, etc.
• Immediately after the engine is
started
• When the headlights are changed between the high beams and low
beams repeatedly in an abnormal
manner

correctly under the conditions
listed below. When these condi-
tions occur, turn off Pre-Colli-
sion Braking Sy stem. Also, do
not use Adaptive Cruise Control

NOTICE
●The characteristics of the stereo
camera are simila r to those of
human eyes. For this reason,
conditions that make it difficult
for the driver to see in the for-
ward direction have the same
effect on the stereo camera.
They also make it difficult for the
system to detect vehicles,
obstacles, and traffic lanes.
●Detection by the EyeSight sys-
tem is limited to objects that are
within the range of the stereo
camera’s field of view. Also,
after an object enters the range
of the camera’s field of view, it
may take some time for the sys-
tem to detect it as a controllable
target and to warn the driver.
Low objects surrounding the
vehicle cannot be detected.
