■Automatic headlight leveling sys-
tem
The level of the headlights is automati- cally adjusted according to the number
of passengers and the loading condition of the vehicle to ensure that the head-lights do not interfere with other road
users.
■12-volt battery-saving function
In order to prevent the 12-volt battery of
the vehicle from discharging, if the light
switch is in the position when the
power switch is turned to OFF, the 12-
volt battery-saving function will operate
and automatically turn off all the lights
after approximately 20 minutes.
When any of the following are per- formed, the 12-volt battery-saving func-
tion is canceled once and then reactivated. All the lights will turn off automatically 20 minutes after the 12-
volt battery-saving function has been reactivated:
●When the headlight switch is operated
●When a door is opened or closed
■If “Headlight System Malfunction
Visit Your Dealer” is displayed on the multi-information display
The system may be malfunctioning.
Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
■Customization
Settings (e.g. light sensor sensitivity) can be changed.
(Customizable features: P.604)

era to assess the brightness of
streetlights, the lights of vehi-
cles ahead etc., and automati-
cally turns the high beams on
or off as necessary.
WARNING
■Limitations of the Automatic
High Beam

ing care to observe your surroundings and turning the high beams on or off manually if necessary.

Driving
The Automatic High Beam indicator will

■High beams automatic turning on
or off conditions
●When all of the following conditions
are fulfilled, the high beams will be
automatically turned on (after approxi-
mately 1 second):
• Vehicle speed is above approximately
30 km/h (19 mph) 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 are
fulfilled, the high beams will be auto-
matically turned off:
• Vehicle speed drops below approxi-
mately 25 km/h (16 mph).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is not
dark.
• Vehicles ahead have headlights or tail
lights turned on.
• There are many streetlights on the
road ahead.
■Front camera detection information
●The high beams may not be automati-
cally turned off in the following situa-
tions:
• When oncoming vehicles suddenly
appear from a curve
• When the vehicle is cut in front of by
another vehicle
• When vehicles ahead are hidden from
sight due to repeated curves, road
dividers or roadside trees
• When vehicles ahead appear from the faraway lane on a wide road
• When vehicles ahead have no lights
●The high beams may be turned off if a
vehicle ahead that is using fog lights
without using the headlights is
detected.
●House lights, street lights, traffic sig-
nals, and illuminated billboards or
signs may cause the high beams to
switch to the low beams, or the low
beams to remain on.
●The following factors may affect the
amount of time taken to turn the high
beams on or off:
• The brightness of headlights, fog
lights, and tail lights of vehicles ahead
• The movement and direction of vehi-
cles ahead
• When a vehicle ahead only has oper-
ational lights on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a two-
wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradient,
curve, condition of the road surface
etc.)
• The number of passengers and
amount of luggage
●The high beams may be turned on or
off when the driver does not expect it.
●Bicycles or similar objects may not be
detected.
●In the situations shown below, the
system may not be able to accurately
detect surrounding brightness levels.
This may cause the low beams to
remain on or the high beams to cause
problems for pedestrians, vehicles
ahead or other parties. In these
cases, manually switch between the
high and low beams.
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sand-
storms, etc.)
• The windshield is obscured by fog,
mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• The windshield is cracked or dam-
aged
