AHB is a safety system designed to help drivers see more of what’s ah\
ead at
nighttime without dazzling other drivers. When enabled, AHB uses an in-v\
ehicle
camera to help detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and tail light\
s of
preceding vehicles, then automatically switches between high and low bea\
ms
as appropriate to provide the most light possible and enhance forward vi\
sibility.
By using high beams more frequently, the system may allow earlier detect\
ion of
pedestrians and obstacles.
Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on AHB op\
eration,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to \
use it.

ACTIVATING THE AHB SYSTEM
CONDITIONS WHERE AHB WILL TURN ON/OFF AUTOMATICALLY
If the Tire Pressure Warning indicator “” illuminates without blinking, adjust tire
pressures to factory-specified levels.* The light will turn off after a \
few minutes. The
warning light may come on due to temperature changes or changes in tire \
pressure
from natural air leakage.
If the tire pressure indicator flashes for more than 60 seconds and then remains on,
take the vehicle to your local Toyota dealer.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.
* Refer to load label on door jamb or the Owner’s Manual for tire inf\

help
hold child restraint systems securely.
To find more information about seat belts, and how to install a child re\
