Turn the headlight switch to the   or   position. 
( P. 231)
Press  the  Automatic  High
Beam switch.
When  the  headlight  switch  lever  is
in  the  low  beam  position,  the AHB
system  will  be  enabled  and  the
AHB indicator will illuminate.
AHB (Automatic High Beam)
The  Automatic  High  Beam  uses  a  front  camera  located  behind
the  upper  portion  of  the  windshi eld  to  assess  the  brightness  of
the lights of vehicles ahead, streetlights, etc., and automatically
turns the high beams on  or off as necessary.
WARNING
■Limitations of the Automatic High Beam
Do not overly rely on the Automatic High Beam. Always drive safely, taking
care  to  observe  your  surroundings  and  turning  the  high  beams  on  or  off
manually if necessary.
■ To prevent incorrect operation of the Automatic High Beam syste m
Do not overload the vehicle.

The  high  beams  are  on  while
the  lever  is  pulled  toward  you.
However,  after  the  lever  is
returned  to  its  original  position,
the  low  beams  remain  on  for  a
certain  amount  of  time.  After-
wards,  the  Automatic  High
Beam will be activated again.
■ Temporarily switchi ng to the low beams
It  is  recommended  to  switch  to  the  low  beams  when  the  high  beam  may

Conditions to turn the high beams on/off automatically
●When all of the following conditions  are met, the  high beams will  be turned
on automatically (after approximately 1 second):
• The vehicle speed is approximately 21 mph (34 km/h) or more.
• The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.
• There are no vehicles ahead with headlights or tail lights turned on.
• There are few streetlights on the road ahead.
● If any of the following conditions is met, the high beams will  turn off automat-
ically:
• The vehicle speed is below approximately 17 mph (27 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is not dark.
• Vehicles ahead have their headlights or tail lights turned on.
• There are many streetlights on the road ahead.
■ Front camera detection information
●The  high  beams  may  not  be  automatically  turned  off  in  the  follo wing  situa-

• 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  detected  due  to  repeated  curves,  road dividers or roadside trees

• When the lights of vehicles ahead are not on
● The high beams may be turned off if a vehicle ahead that is usi ng fog lights
without its headlights turned on is detected.
● House lights, street lights, traffic signals, and illuminated 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  t he  high
beams to turn on or off:
• The  brightness  of  the  headlights,  fog  lights,  and  tail  lights  of  vehicles

In the following situations the system may not be able to correctly detect the
surrounding  brightness  level.  This  may  cause  the  low  beams  to  r emain  on
or the high beams to flash or dazzle pedestrians or vehicles ah ead. In such
a case, it is necessary to manually switch between the high and  low beams.
• When  driving  in  inclement  weather  (heavy  rain,  snow,  fog,  sand storms,
etc.)
• When the windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• When the windshield is cracked or damaged
• When the front camera is deformed or dirty
• When the temperature of the front camera is extremely high
• When  the  surrounding  brightness  level  is  equal  to  that  of  head lights,  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 prec eding  vehi-

properly
• When the vehicle is listing or titling due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed,
etc.
• When  the  headlights  are  changed  between  the  high  beams  and  low beams repeatedly in an abnormal manner
• When the driver believes that the high beams may be flashing or dazzling pedestrians or other drivers
■ Temporarily lowering sensor sensitivity
The sensitivity of the sensor can be temporarily lowered.
Turn the engine switch off while the following conditions are m et.
• The headlight switch is in the   or   position.
• The headlight switch lever is in the original position.
Turn  the  engine  switch  to  the  “ON”  position  (vehicles  without  a  smart key
system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).
Within 60 seconds after  , repeat pushing the headlight switch lever to the
high  beam  position  then  pulling  it  to  the  original  position  qui ckly  10  times,
then leave the lever in the original position.
