headlight leveling motors at the front of the vehicle when the ignition is ON.
• The system will need to be reset if the vehicle battery has been disconnected
or the system fuse has been replaced. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for
easy to follow resetting instructions.

The AFS improves the direction of headlight illumination while cornering, and
only works when the vehicle is moving.
