AHB (Automatic High
Beam)
The Automatic High Beam
uses a front camera located
on the upper portion of the
windshield to detect the
brightness of the lights of
vehicles ahead, street-
lights, etc., and automati-
cally changes the head
lights between the high
beams and low beams.
WARNING
■For safe use
Do not overly rely on the Auto-
matic High Beam. Always drive
safely, taking care to observe your
surroundings and turning the high
beams on or off manually if nec-
essary.
■To prevent unintentional
operation of the Automatic
High Beam System

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.
●If any of the following conditions
are met, the headlights will
change to the low beams:
• Vehicle speed drops below
approximately 17 mph (27 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is not dark.
• There is a vehi cle ahead with
lights on.
• There are many streetlights or
other lights on the road ahead.
■Front camera detection
●In the following situations, the high
beams may not be automatically
changed to the low beams:
• When a vehicle cuts in front of your vehicle
• When another vehicle crosses in front of the vehicle • When vehicles ahead are repeat-
edly detected and then hidden
due to repeated curves, road
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-
lights
• Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly: P. 2 0 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
remain on.
●The following may change the tim-
ing at which the headlights
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
• The condition of the road (gradi- ent, curve, condition of the road
surface, etc.)
• The number of passengers and amount of luggage
●The headlights may change
between the high beams and low
beams unexpectedly.
●Bicycles and other small vehicles
may not be detected.
●In the following situations, the sys-

roundings. This may cause the
low beams to remain on or the
high beams to flash or dazzle
pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In
such a case, it is necessary to
manually change between the
high beams and low beams.
• When there are lights similar to headlights or tail li ghts in the sur-
rounding area
• When headlights or tail lights of vehicles ahead are turned off,
dirty, changing color, or not aimed
properly
• When the headlights are repeat-
edly changing between the high
beams and low beams.
• When use of the high beams is
inappropriate or when the high
beams may be flashing or daz-
zling pedestrians or other drivers.
• When the vehicle is used in an area in which vehicles travel on
the opposite side of the road of
the country for wh ich the vehicle
was designed, for example using
a vehicle designed for right-hand
traffic in a left-hand traffic area, or
vice versa
