oncoming traf f ic.
AFS is turned of f when the shif t
lever is in the R position. The AFS works with the automatic
headlight adjusting system to sense
changes in vehicle height due to
driving and loading conditions of
passengers and luggage, and adjusts
the vertical aim of the low beam
headlights automatically to
compensate f or load.
If the headlights do not seem to be
properly aimed, have the automatic
headlight adjusting system inspected
by your dealer.
When you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position, the AFS is
turned on if it was on previously.
