When the headlight switch lever is
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.
●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. 1 8 8
●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-
tem may not be able to correctly
detect the brightness of the sur-

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

3 Within 60 seconds after perform-
ing step 2, push the headlight
switch lever to the high beam
position then pull it to the original position quickly 10 times, then

The Automatic High Beam indicator
will turn off and the high beam indi-
cator will turn on.

■To prevent malfunction of the
radar sensors
Observe the following precau-
tions. Failure to do so may lead to
a radar sensor not operating prop-
erly, possibly leading to an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Keep the radar sensors and
radar sensor covers clean at all
times.
Clean the front of a radar sensor
or the front or back of a radar sen-
sor cover if it is dirty or covered
with water drople ts, snow, etc.
When cleaning the radar sensor

ota dealer.
●Do not disassemble the radar
sensors.
●Do not modify or paint the radar

WARNING
■Front camera installation area
on the windshield
If the system determines that the
windshield may be fogged up, it
will automatically operate the
heater to defog the part of the
windshield around the front cam-
era. When cleaning, etc., be care-
ful not to touch the area around
the front camera until the wind-
shield has cooled sufficiently, as
touching it may cause burns.

be heard and the brake pedal
response may change, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
●When the system is operating, the
brake pedal may feel stiffer than
expected or sink. In either situa-
tion the brake pedal can be
depressed further. Further
depress the brake pedal as nec-
essary.
PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system
uses sensors to detect
objects ( P.191) in the path
of the vehicle. When the
system determines that the
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with a detectable
object is high, a warning
operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action and
the potential brake pressure
is increased to help the
driver avoid the collision. If
the system determines that
the possibility of a collision
is extremely high, the
brakes are automatically
applied to help avoid the
collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.
The pre-collision system
can be disabled/enabled
and the warning timing can
be changed. ( P.200)

The LTA will change between

■Situations in which the func-
tions may not operate prop-
erly
In the following situations, the
functions may not operate prop-
erly and the vehicle may depart
from its lane. Do not overly rely on
these functions. The driver is
solely responsible for paying
attention to their surroundings
and operating the steering wheel
as necessary to ensure safety.
●When a preceding or surround-
ing vehicle changes lanes (Your
vehicle may follow the preced-
ing or surrounding vehicle and
also change lanes)
●When a preceding or surround-
ing vehicle is swaying (Your
vehicle may sway accordingly
and depart from the lane)
●When a preceding or surround-
ing vehicle departs from a lane
(Your vehicle may follow the
preceding or surrounding vehi-
cle and also depart from the
lane)
●When a preceding or surround-
ing vehicle is being driven
extremely close to the left/right
lane line (Your vehicle may fol-
low the preceding or surround-
ing vehicle accordingly and
depart from the lane)
●When there are moving objects
or structures in the surrounding
area (Depending on the position
of the moving object or structure
relative to your vehicle, your
vehicle may sway)
●When the vehicle is struck by a
crosswind or the turbulence of
other nearby vehicles

●When the system determines that
the driver is not securely holding
the steering wheel, or the steering
wheel is not being operated when
the steering assist operation of the
lane departure prevention function
is operating
The length of time that the warning
buzzer operates will become longer
as the frequency o f the steering
