.When the headlight switch is in theorposition while the ignition
switch is in the ON position, the lights
will automatically turn off within a
period of time after the ignition switch
has been placed in the OFF position.
. When the headlight switch remains in
the
orposition after the lights
automatically turn off, the lights will
turn on when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
CAUTION
. When you turn on the headlight
switch again after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will
not turn off automatically. Be
sure to turn the light switch to
the OFF (if so equipped) or the
AUTO position when you leave
the vehicle for extended periods
of time, otherwise the battery will
be discharged.
. Never leave the light switch on
when the engine is not running for extended periods of time even
if the headlights turn off auto-
matically.
Daytime Running Light (DRL) sys-
tem
The LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
automatically illuminate when the engine
is started and the parking brake is
released. The LED DRL operate with the
headlight switch in the OFF (if so
equipped),
, or AUTO (when the head-
lights are off) position. When you turn the
headlight switch to the
position for
full illumination, the LED lights switch
from LED DRL to the park function.
Type A: If the parking brake is applied
before the engine is started, the LED DRL
do not illuminate. The LED DRL illuminate
when the parking brake is released. This
feature will work in the
, AUTO or OFF
position. The LED DRL will remain on until
the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
Type B: If the parking brake is applied
before the engine is started, the LED DRL
do not illuminate. The LED DRL illuminate
when the parking brake is released. This
feature will work in the AUTO or
position. The LED DRL will remain on until
the ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the LED DRL system is active
with the headlight switch in the OFF
position (if so equipped), tail lights
on your vehicle are not on. It is
necessary at dusk to turn on your
headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself
and others.

Automatic anti-glare type (if so
equipped)
The inside mirror is designed so that it
automatically changes reflection accord-
ing to the intensity of the headlights of
the following vehicle.
The anti-glare system will be automati-
cally turned on when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
When the anti-glare system is turned on,
the indicator light
will illuminate and
excessive glare from the headlights of the
vehicle behind you will be reduced.
Push the
switchto make the inside
rearview mirror operate normally. The indicator light will turn off. Push the

CAUTION
.The TSR system is intended as an
aid to careful driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, and observe
all road regulations that currently
apply, including looking out for
road signs. .
The TSR system may not function
properly under all conditions. Be-
low are some examples:
— When the road sign is not
clearly visible, for example,
due to damage or weather
conditions.
— When rain, snow or dirt ad- heres to the windshield in
front of the multi-sensing
front camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens
or if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the camera unit. (For example, the
light directly shines on the
front of the vehicle at sunrise
or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For exam-
ple, when the vehicle enters or
exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
— In areas not covered by the navigation system.
— If there are deviations in rela- tion to the navigation, for ex-
ample due to changes in the road routing.
— When overtaking buses or trucks with speed stickers.
— When the data from the navi- gation system is not up-to-
date or is unavailable.
. The TSR system may display a
traffic sign, though there is no
traffic sign in front of the vehicle.
It may display a different speed
limit from that for a passenger
vehicle. (The maximum speed
limit sign may show a higher or
lower number than the actual
maximum speed, for example,
when detecting a speed limit sign
for truck, advisory sign, different
speed limit sign between daytime
and nighttime, or speed limit sign
written in different unit near the
border, etc.)

— When there is a lane closuredue to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire conditions (for example,
tire wear, low tire pressure,
installation of spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts
or suspension parts.
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle.
. The system may not function
properly under the following con-
ditions:
— On roads where there are
multiple parallel lane markers;
lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-
standard lane markers; or
lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect- able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects,
such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or
lines remaining after road re-
pairs. (The LDW system could
detect these items as lane
markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with
the lane marker.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera
unit detection range.
— When rain, snow, dirt or object adheres to the windshield in
front of the lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens
or if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For exam- ple, the light directly shines on
the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For exam-
ple, when the vehicle enters or
exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
Condition A:
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight
under high temperature conditions (over
approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then
started, the LDW system may be deacti-
vated automatically, the LDW indicator
will flash and the following message will
appear in the vehicle information display.
. “Unavailable High Cabin Temperature”
When the interior temperature is reduced,
the LDW system will resume operating
automatically and the LDW indicator will
stop flashing.
Condition B:
The warning function of the LDW system
is not designed to work under the follow-
ing conditions:

directs traffic to cross an existing
lane marker. If this occurs you
may need to apply corrective
steering to complete your lane
change.
. Because the I-LI may not activate
under the road, weather, and lane
marker conditions described in
this section, it may not activate
every time your vehicle begins to
leave its lane and you will need to
apply corrective steering.
. The I-LI system will not operate at
speeds below approximately 37
MPH (60 km/h) or if it cannot
detect lane markers.
. When the I-LI system is operating,
avoid excessive or sudden steer-
ing maneuvers. Otherwise, you
could lose control of the vehicle.
. Do not use the I-LI system under
the following conditions as it may
not function properly:
— During bad weather (rain, fog,
snow, etc.).
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
— When driving on winding or uneven roads. — When there is a lane closure
due to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire conditions (for example,
tire wear, low tire pressure,
installation of spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts
or suspension parts.
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle.
— On roads where there are multiple parallel lane markers;
lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-
standard lane markers; or
lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect-
able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves. — On roads where there are
sharply contrasting objects,
such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or
lines remaining after road re-
pairs. (The I-LI system could
detect these items as lane
markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with
the lane marker.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera
unit detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt ad- heres to the windshield in
front of the lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens
or if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For exam-
ple, the light directly shines on
the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)

— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
— Vehicles such as motorcycles,low height vehicles, or high
ground clearance vehicles.
— Vehicles remaining in the de- tection zone when you accel-
erate from a stop.
— Oncoming vehicles.
— A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane at a speed ap-
proximately the same as your
vehicle.
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
— A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly.
— A vehicle that passes through the detection zone quickly.
. The radar sensor’s detection zone
is designed based on a standard
lane width. When driving in a
wider lane, the radar sensors
may not detect vehicles in an
adjacent lane. When driving in a
narrow lane, the radar sensors
may detect vehicles driving two
lanes away. .
The radar sensors are designed
to ignore most stationary objects,
however objects such as guard-
rails, walls, foliage and parked
vehicles may occasionally be de-
tected. This is a normal operation
condition.
. The following conditions may re-
duce the ability of the radar to
detect other vehicles:
— Severe weather
— Road spray
— Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the
vehicle
. Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install ac-
cessories or apply additional
paint near the radar sensors.
These conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
. The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situa-
tions and the I-BSI system may
not operate properly.
— On roads where there are
multiple parallel lane markers;
lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non- standard lane markers; lane
markers covered with water,
dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect-
able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects,
such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or
lines remaining after road re-
pairs.
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with
the lane markers.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera
unit detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt ad- heres to the windshield in
front of a lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens
or if aiming is not adjusted
