High Beam Assist (HBA)
(if equipped)
The High Beam Assist is a system
that automatically adjusts the head-
lamp range (switches between high
beam and low beam) depending on
the brightness of detected vehicles
and certain road conditions.
Operating condition
1. Place the headlamp switch in the
AUTO position.
2. Turn on the high beam by pushing
the lever away from you.
The High Beam Assist ( ) indica-
tor will illuminate.
3. The High Beam Assist will turn on
when vehicle speed is above 25
mph (40 km/h).
• If the headlamp lever is pushed
away when the High Beam Assist
is operating, the High Beam Assist
will turn off and the high beam will
be on continuously.
• If the headlamp lever is pulled
towards you when the high beam
is off, the high beam will turn on
without the High Beam Assist
canceled. When you let go of the
headlamp lever, the lever will
move to the middle and the high
beam will turn off.• If the headlamp lever is pulled
towards you when the high beam
is on by the High Beam Assist, the
low beam will be on and the High
Beam Assist will turn off.
• If the headlamp lever is placed to
the headlamp ON position, the
High Beam Assist will turn off
and the low beam will be on con-
tinuously.
When the High Beam Assist is on,
the high beam switches to low beam
if any of the following conditions
occur :
- When the headlamp of an on-com-
ing vehicle is detected.
- When the tail lamp of a vehicle in
front is detected.
- When the headlamp or tail lamp of
a motorcycle or a bicycle is detect-
ed.
- When the surrounding ambient
light is bright enough that high
beams are not required.
- When streetlights or other lights
are detected.
- When the headlamp switch is not
in the AUTO position.
- When the High Beam Assist is off.
- When vehicle speed is below 15
mph (24 km/h).
