Operating instructions

1744-3. Operating the lights and wipers
●To make your vehicle more visible
to other drivers during daytime
driving, the daytime running lights
turn on automatically when all of
the following conditions are met.
(The daytime running lights are
not designed for use at night.)
• The engine is running
• The parking brake is released
• The headlight switch is in the
or
* position
*: When the surroundings are bright
The daytime running lights remain
on after they illumi nate, even if the
parking brake is set again.
●For the U.S.A.: Daytime running
lights can be turned off by operat-
ing the switch.
●Compared to turning on the head-
lights, the daytime running light
system offers gr eater durability
and consumes less electricity, so
it can help improve fuel economy.
■Headlight control sensor
The sensor may not function prop-
erly if an object is placed on the sen-
sor, or anything that blocks the
sensor is affixed to the windshield.
Doing so interfere s with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light
and may cause the automatic head-
light system to malfunction.
■Automatic light off system
●When the headlights are on: The
headlights and tail lights turn off
30 seconds after the driver’s door
is opened and closed if the engine
switch is turned to ACC or OFF.
(Vehicles with a wireless remote
control: The lights turn off immedi- ately if on the key is pressed
after all the doors are closed.)
●When only the tail lights are on:
The tail lights turn off automati-
cally if the engine switch is turned
to ACC or OFF and the driver’s
door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the
engine switch to ON, or turn the light
switch off once and then back to
or (except for the Canada).
■Light reminder buzzer
A buzzer sounds when the engine
switch is turned t o OFF or ACC and
the driver’s door is opened while the
lights are turned on.
■Windshield wiper linked head-
light illumination
When driving during daytime with
the headlight switch turned to , if
the windshield wipers are used, the
headlights will turn o n automatically
after several se conds to help
enhance the visibility of your vehi-
cle.
■Battery-saving function
In order to prevent the battery of the
vehicle from discharging, if the
headlights and/or tail lights are on
when the engine switch is turned off
the battery saving function will oper-
ate and automatically turn off all the
lights after approximately 20 min-
utes. When the engine switch is
turned to ON, the battery-saving
function will be disabled.
When any of the following are per-
formed, the battery-saving function
is canceled once and then reacti-
vated. All the lights will turn off auto-
matically 20 minutes after the
Battery- saving function has been
reactivated:
●When the headlight switch is oper-
ated
●When a door is opened or closed

AHB (Automatic High
Beam)
The Automatic High Beam
uses a front camera located
on the upper portion of the
windshield to detect the
brightness of the lights of
vehicles ahead, street-
lights, etc., and automati-
cally changes the head
lights between the high
beams and low beams.
WARNING
■For safe use
Do not overly rely on the Auto-
matic High Beam. Always drive
safely, taking care to observe your
surroundings and turning the high
beams on or off manually if nec-
essary.
■To prevent unintentional
operation of the Automatic
High Beam System
●When it is necessary to disable
the system: P.184

2Turn the headlight switch to
the or position.
When the headlight switch lever is
in the low beam position, the AHB
system will be enabled and the
AHB indicator will illuminate.
■Automatic operating condi-
tions of the high beams
●When all of the following condi-
tions are met, the high beams will
illuminate automatically:
• The vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 21 mph (34 km/h) or more.
• The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.
• There are no vehicles ahead with lights on.
• There are few streetlights or other
lights on the road ahead.

• When another vehicle crosses in front of the vehicle • When vehicles ahead are repeat-
edly detected and then hidden
due to repeated curves, road
dividers or roadside trees
• When a vehicle ahead approaches from a far lane
• When a vehicle ahead is far away
• When a vehicle ahead has no lights
• When the lights of a vehicle ahead are dim
• When a vehicle ahead is reflecting
strong light, such as own head-
lights
• Situations in which the sensors
may not operate properly: P. 1 8 8
●The headlights may change to the
low beams if a vehicle ahead that
is using fog lights without its head-
lights turned on is detected.
●House lights, street lights, traffic
signals, and illuminated billboards
or signs may cause the high
beams to change to the low
beams, or the low beams to
remain on.
●The following may change the tim-
ing at which the headlights
change to the low beams:
• The brightness o f lights of vehi-
cles ahead
• The movement and direction of vehicles ahead
• The distance between the vehicle and a vehicle ahead
• When a vehicle ahead only has
lights illuminate d on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradi- ent, curve, condition of the road
surface, etc.)
• The number of passengers and amount of luggage
●The headlights may change
between the high beams and low
beams unexpectedly.

may not be detected.
●In the following situations, the sys-
tem may not be able to correctly
detect the brightness of the sur-

roundings. This may cause the
low beams to remain on or the
high beams to flash or dazzle
pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In
such a case, it is necessary to
manually change between the
high beams and low beams.
• When there are lights similar to headlights or tail li ghts in the sur-
rounding area
• When headlights or tail lights of vehicles ahead are turned off,
dirty, changing color, or not aimed
properly
• When the headlights are repeat-
edly changing between the high
beams and low beams.
• When use of the high beams is
inappropriate or when the high
beams may be flashing or daz-
zling pedestrians or other drivers.
• When the vehicle is used in an area in which vehicles travel on
the opposite side of the road of
the country for wh ich the vehicle
was designed, for example using
a vehicle designed for right-hand
traffic in a left-hand traffic area, or
vice versa

WARNING
■Front camera installation area
on the windshield
If the system determines that the
windshield may be fogged up, it
will automatically operate the
heater to defog the part of the
windshield around the front cam-
era. When cleaning, etc., be care-
ful not to touch the area around
the front camera until the wind-
shield has cooled sufficiently, as
touching it may cause burns.
