■Gear Shift Indicator
The indication of the gear shift indica- tor is only as a guideline for driving
more fuel-efficiently. The indicator
does not inform the driver about the safe shift operation timing. The driver
has the responsibility for suitable shift
operation depending on the traffic conditions or driving conditions (e.g.,
overtaking or driving on an uphill
slope).
This indicator supports the driver to
drive more fuel-efficiently. The vehicle
system determines the shift opera- tion timing depending on the driving
conditions, and informs the driver by
the indicator on the meter. For details, refer to Gear shift indicator.
Usually, the gear shift indicator is a
guideline for driving more fuel-effi- ciently, and it also may operate to pre-
vent a possible stall at a low engine
speed.

■Stereo camera detection informa-
tion
●If EyeSight is malfunctioning or tem-
porarily disabled, the high beam assist
will not operate, and the low beam
headlights will turn on.
●The high beams may not be automati-
cally turned off in the following situa- tions:
• When a vehicle suddenly appears
from around a curve • When the vehicle is cut in front of by
another vehicle
• When vehicles ahead cannot be
detected due to repeated curves, road
dividers or roadside trees • When vehicles ahead appear in a far-
away lane on a wide road

●The high beams may be turned off if a vehicle ahead that is using fog lights
without its headlights turned on is
detected.
●House lights, street lights, traffic sig-
nals, and illuminated billboards or signs and other reflective objects may
cause the high beams to change to
the low beams, or the low beams to remain on.
●The following factors may affect the amount of time taken for the high
beams to turn on or off:
• The brightness of the headlights, fog lights, and tail lights of vehicles ahead
• The movement and direction of vehi-
cles ahead • When a vehicle ahead only has oper-
ational lights on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradient,
curve, condition of the road surface, etc.)

amount of luggage in the vehicle • When there is a lag in response due
to the limitations of the detection
range of the stereo camera
●The high beams may turn on or off
unexpectedly.
●Bicycles or similar vehicles may not
be detected.
●In the following si tuations the system
may not be able to correctly detect the
surrounding brightness level. This may cause the low beams to remain
on or the high beams to flash or daz-
zle pedestrians or vehicles ahead. In such a case, it is necessary to manu-
ally switch between the high and low
beams. • When driving in inclement weather
(heavy rain, snow, fog, sandstorms,

object ahead of the vehicle, such as a
sign or mirror • When the back of a preceding vehicle
is highly reflective, such as a con-
tainer on a truck • When the vehicle’s headlights are
damaged or dirty, or are not aimed
properly • When the vehicle is listing or titling
due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed,
etc. • Immediately after the engine is started
