WARNING
■Cautions during setting up
the display
As the hybrid system needs to be
operating during setting up the
display, ensure that the vehicle is
parked in a place with adequate
ventilation. In a closed area such
as a garage, exhaust gases
including harmful carbon monox-
ide (CO) may collect and enter
the vehicle. This may lead to
death or a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
■During setting up the display
To prevent 12-volt battery dis-
charge, ensure that the hybrid
system is operating while setting
up the display features.

2725-3. Operating the lights and wipers
Pull the lever toward you to the
center position to turn the high
beams off.
2Pull the lever toward you and
release it to flash the high
beams once.
You can flash the high beams with
the headlights on or off.

Beam switch.
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
necessary.

intermittent wiper operation when
the vehicle is stationary. (However,
when the sensor sensitivity is
adjusted to the highest level, the
mode will not switch.)
■Raindrop sensor
●The raindrop sensor judges the
amount of raindrops.
An optical sensor is adopted. It may
not operate properly when sunlight
from the rising or setting of the sun
intermittently strikes the windshield,
or if bugs, etc. are present on the
windshield.
●If the wiper switch is turned to the
position while the power
switch is in ON, the wipers will
operate once to show that “AUTO”
mode is activated.
●When the sensor sensitivity ring is
turned toward hi gh while in the
“AUTO” mode, the wipers will
operate once to indicate that the
sensor sensitivity is enhanced.
●If the temperature of the raindrop
sensor is 185°F (85°C) or higher,
or 5°F (-15°C) or lower, the auto-
matic operation may not occur. In
this case, operate the wipers in
any mode other than “AUTO”.
■Front door opening linked wind-
shield wiper stop function
When is selected and the
windshield wipers are operating, if a
front door is opened while the vehi-
cle is stopped and the P position is
selected, operation of the wind- shield wipers will be stopped to pre-
vent anyone near the vehicle from
being sprayed by water from the
wipers. When the front door is
closed, wiper operation will resume.
■If no windshield washer fluid
sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are
not blocked if there is washer fluid in
the windshield washer fluid reser-
voir.
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of
windshield wipers in “AUTO”
mode
The windshield wipers may oper-
ate unexpectedly if the sensor is
touched or the windshield is sub-
ject to vibration in “AUTO” mode.
Take care that your fingers or
anything else do not become
caught in the windshield wipers.
■Caution regarding the use of
windshield cleaning washer
fluid
When it is cold, do not use the
washer fluid until the windshield
becomes warm. The fluid may
freeze on the windshield and
cause low visibility. This may lead
to an accident, resulting in death
or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When the washer fluid tank is
empty
Do not operate the switch continu-
ally as the washer fluid pump may
overheat.

properly removed from the area
of the windshield in front of the
front camera by the windshield
wipers, replace the wiper insert
or wiper blade.

to a strong impact.
●Do not change the position or
orientation of the front camera
or remove it.

obstruct the front camera.
●Do not modify or change the
headlights and other lights.
■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.
■Precautions for the driver
monitor camera (if equipped)
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may lead to mal-
function of the driver monitor cam-
era and the systems not operating
properly, possibly leading to an
accident resulting in death or seri-

WARNING
■For safe use
Driving safely is solely the respon-
sibility of the driver. Pay careful
attention to the surrounding con-
ditions in order to ensure safe
driving. The FCTA system is a
supplementary system that
informs the driver of vehicles
approaching from the left and
right of the front of the vehicle.
Over-reliance on this system may
lead to an accident resulting in
death or serious injury. The
details of the warning display may
differ from the actual traffic condi-
tions. Although the warning dis-
play will stop being displayed after
a certain amount of time, this
does not necessarily indicate that
there are no longer any vehicles
or pedestrians around your vehi-
cle.
