ous injury. Have the vehicle 
inspected by your Toyota dealer 
immediately if this occurs.

slippery.
●Drive carefully whe n it starts to 
rain, because the road surface will 
be especially slippery.
●Refrain from hig h speeds when 
driving on an expressway in the 
rain, because there may be a 
layer of water between the tires 
and the road surface, preventing 
the steering and brakes from 
operating properly.

in the low beam position, the AHB 
system will be enabled and the 
AHB indicator will illuminate.
■Automatic operating condi-
tions of the high beams
●When all of the following condi-
tions are met, the high beams will 
illuminate automatically:
• The vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 21 mph (34 km/h) or more.
• The area ahead of the vehicle is  dark.
• There are no vehicles ahead with  lights on.
• There are few streetlights or other 
lights on the road ahead.

dividers or roadside trees
• When a vehicle ahead  approaches from a far lane
• When a vehicle ahead is far away
• When a vehicle ahead has no  lights
• When the lights of a vehicle ahead  are dim
• When a vehicle ahead is reflecting 
strong light, such as own head-

• Situations in which the sensors 
may not operate properly:  P. 1 6 5
●The headlights may change to the 
low beams if a vehicle ahead that 
is using fog lights without its head-
lights turned on is detected.
●House lights, street lights, traffic 
signals, and illuminated billboards 
or signs may cause the high 
beams to change to the low 
beams, or the low beams to

change to the low beams:
• The brightness o f lights of vehi-
cles ahead
• The movement and direction of  vehicles ahead
• The distance between the vehicle  and a vehicle ahead
• When a vehicle  ahead only has 
lights illuminate d on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a  two-wheeled vehicle
