Switches and Controls
NOTE
  The headlights, other exterior lights and instrument panel illumination may not turn
off immediately even if the surrounding area becomes well-lit because the light sensor
determines that it is night time if the surrounding area is continuously dark for several
minutes such as inside long tunnels, traf¿ c jams inside tunnels, or in indoor parking
lots.
 In this case, the lights turn off if the light switch is turned to the position.
  When the headlight switch is in the position and the ignition is switched to ACC
or the ignition is switched off, the headlights, other exterior lights and instrument panel
illumination will turn off.
  The instrument panel illumination can be adjusted by rotating the knob in the
instrument cluster. Also, the antidazzle mode can be changed by rotating the knob until
a beep sound is heard. To adjust the brightness of the instrument panel illumination:

an accident.

Only use windscreen washer À uid
mixed with anti-freeze protection in
freezing weather conditions:
Using windscreen washer À uid without
anti-freeze protection in freezing
weather conditions is dangerous as it
could freeze on the windscreen and
block your vision which could cause
an accident. In addition, make sure
the windscreen is suf¿ ciently warmed
using the defroster before spraying the
washer À uid.

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
NOTE
The timing in which the system switches the headlights changes under the following
conditions. If the system does not switch the headlights appropriately, manually switch
between high and low beams according to the visibility as well as road and traf¿ c
conditions.
 
 When there are sources of light in the area such as street lamps, illuminated
signboards, and traf¿ c signals.

 When there are reÀ ective objects in the surrounding area such as reÀ ective plates and
signs.
  When visibility is reduced under rain, snow and foggy conditions. 
 When driving on roads with sharp turn or hilly terrain. 
 When the headlights/rear lamps of vehicles in front of you or in the opposite lane are
dim or not illuminated.

To Operate the System
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
operates to switch the headlights
automatically between high and low
beams after the ignition is switched ON
and the headlight switch is in the AUTO
and high beam position.
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
determines that it is dark based on the
brightness of the surrounding area. At the
same time, the High Beam Control System
(HBC) indicator light (green) in the
instrument cluster illuminates.



NOTE
  When the vehicle speed is about
30 km/h (19 mph) or more, the
headlights automatically switch
to high beams when there are no
vehicles ahead or approaching in the
opposite direction.
 When the vehicle speed is less
than about 20 km/h (12 mph), the
High Beam Control System (HBC)
switches the headlights to low
beams.
  The low beams may not switch to
high beams when cornering.

CAUTION
Do not modify the suspension. If the vehicle height or the damping force of the
suspensions is changed, the LDWS may not operate correctly.
NOTE
  If your vehicle deviates from its traf¿ c lane, the LDWS operates (warning sound and
indicator light). Steer the vehicle adequately to drive the vehicle to the centre of the
lane.
  When the direction indicator lever is operated for a lane change, the LDWS warning
is automatically cancelled. The LDWS warning becomes operable when the direction
indicator lever is returned and the system detects the white or yellow lines.
  If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white or yellow line, the system determines that the driver is
making a lane change and the LDWS warning is automatically cancelled.
  The LDWS may not operate during the period immediately after the vehicle has
deviated from its lane and the LDWS has operated, or the vehicle deviates from its
lane repeatedly within a short period of time.
  The LDWS does not operate if it does not detect the white or yellow lines of the traf¿ c
lane.

NOTE
  Under the following conditions, the radar sensors (rear) cannot detect target objects or
it may be dif¿ cult to detect them.




 A vehicle is in the detection area at the rear in an adjacent driving lane but it does
not approach. The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) determines the condition based on
radar detection data.
 


 A vehicle is travelling alongside your vehicle at nearly the same speed for an
extended period of time.
 


 Vehicles approaching in the opposite direction.



 A vehicle in an adjacent driving lane is attempting to pass your vehicle.



 A vehicle is in an adjacent lane on a road with extremely wide driving lanes. The
detection area of the radar sensors (rear) is set at the road width of expressways.


 In the following case, the À ashing of the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning
indicator light, and the activation of the warning sound and the warning screen
indicator display may not occur or they may be delayed.
 


 A vehicle makes a lane change from a driving lane two lanes over to an adjacent
lane.
