High Beam Assist (if so equipped)
The High Beam Assist system will operate
when the vehicle is driven at speeds of ap-
proximately 25 mph (40 km/h) and above. If
an oncoming vehicle or leading vehicle ap-
pears in front of your vehicle when the head-
light high beam is on, the headlight will be
switched to the low beam automatically.
WARNING
∙ The High Beam Assist system is a conve- nience but it is not a substitute for safe
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driving
practices and switch the high beams and
low beam manually when necessary.
∙ The high beam or low beam may not switch automatically under the following
conditions. Switch the high beam and low
beam manually.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, wind, etc.).
– When a light source similar to a head- light or tail light is in the vicinity of the
vehicle. – When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are
turned off, when the color of the light
is affected due to foreign materials on
the lights, or when the light beam is
out of position.
– When there is a sudden, continuous change in brightness.
– When driving on a road that passes over rolling hills, or a road that has
level differences.
– When driving on a road with many curves.
– When a sign or mirror-like surface is reflecting intense light towards the
front of the vehicle.
– When the container, etc. being towed by a leading vehicle is reflecting in-
tense light.
– When a headlight on your vehicle is damaged or dirty.

Ambient image sensor maintenance
The ambient image sensor
1for the High
Beam Assist system is located in front of the
inside mirror. To maintain the proper opera-
tion of the High Beam Assist system and
prevent a system malfunction, be sure to ob-
serve the following:
∙ Always keep the windshield clean.
∙ Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the ambient image sensor. ∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around
the ambient image sensor. Do not touch
the sensor lens that is located on the
ambient image sensor.
If the ambient image sensor is damaged due
to an accident, it is recommended that you

leased. The LED Daytime Running Lights
(DRL) system operates with the headlight
switch in the OFF position. When you turn
the headlight switch to the
position for
full illumination, the LED lights switch from
LED DRL system to the park function.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the LED DRL system does
not illuminate. The LED DRL system illumi-
nates when the parking brake is released. The
LED DRL system will remain on until the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
It is necessary at dusk to turn the headlight
switch on for interior controls and switches
to illuminate, as those remain off while the
switch is in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the LED DRL system is active, tail
lights on your vehicle are not on. It is neces-
sary at dusk to turn on your headlights.
Failure to do so could cause an accident in-
juring yourself and others.

– The camera area of windshield isfogged up, or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
– Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera. Strong light
causes the area around the pedestrian
to be cast in a shadow, making it diffi-
cult to see.
– A sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example, when the vehicle enters
or exits a tunnel or a shaded area or
lightning flashes.)
– The poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having clothing
color or pattern which is similar to the
background.
– The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable due to the
pedestrian transporting luggage,
wearing bulky or very loose-fitting
clothing or accessories.
∙ The system performance may degrade in the following conditions:
– The vehicle is driven on a slippery road.
– The vehicle is driven on a slope. – Excessively heavy baggage is loaded
in the rear seat or the trunk room of
your vehicle.
∙ The system is designed to automatically check the sensor’s (radar and camera)
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect blockage of
sensor areas covered by ice, snow or
stickers, for example. In these cases, the
system may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure that you check,
clean and clear sensor areas regularly.
∙ In some road and traffic conditions, the FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, depress
the accelerator pedal to override the
system.
∙ Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime may
not be heard.
