    2. Daytime Running Light System


      1. The daytime running light system is designed to automatically illuminate the Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights, during the daytime to keep the vehicle highly visible to other vehicles.

    3. Light Emitting Diode (LED) Headlight System


      1. An LED headlight system, capable of instant illumination and of ensuring a long service life, is used for low beam and high beam headlights.

    4. Intelligent Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS) (Models with AFS)


      1. An intelligent AFS is used in order to ensure a wide low beam lighting area and provide excellent visibility during turns by moving the low beam.

      2. The intelligent AFS performs medium-to-high speed control and low speed control. In the medium-to-high speed control, the system calculates the target lighting angle based on the steering angle and vehicle speed and changes the swivel angle of the low-beam headlights individually. During the low speed control, the system calculates the target lighting angle based on the steering angle and changes the swivel angle of the low-beam headlight on the side facing into the turn.

    5. Automatic High Beam System (Models with Automatic High Beam System)


      1. The automatic high beam system detects lights in front of the vehicle and automatically changes between high beams and low beams to support the driver during night driving.

    6. Adaptive High-beam System (AHS) (Models with AHS)


      1. The Adaptive High-beam System is provided depending on the models.

      2. The Adaptive High-beam System detects lights in front of the vehicle and automatically changes the lighting area to support the driver during night driving.

    7. Automatic Headlight Beam Level Control System


      1. When the hybrid system and headlights are on, the automatic headlight beam level control system operates the headlight swivel motors*1 or headlight leveling monitors*2 in accordance with movement of the vehicle.


        • *1: Models with projector type headlight assembly and intelligent AFS

        • *2: Models with triple projector type headlight assembly or projector type headlight assembly without intelligent AFS

    8. Automatic Light Control System


      1. When the light control switch is in the AUTO position, the automatic light control sensor detects the ambient light level and automatically turns the headlights, taillights, clearance lights and license plate lights on or off accordingly.

      2. This system is controlled by the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).

    9. Light Auto Turn-off System


      1. The light auto turn-off system is used to prevent the driver from leaving the vehicle with the headlights, front fog lights, clearance lights, taillights or license plate lights on.

    10. Door Mirror Foot Light System


      1. The door mirror foot light system operates the door mirror lights to ensure visibility when approaching or leaving the vehicle at night.

    11. Emergency Brake Signal (Models with Emergency Brake Signal)


      1. The stop lights flash automatically in the case of emergency braking to alert following drivers, thus helping to reduce rear-end accidents.

    12. Illumination System


      1. The illumination system operates the clearance lights, taillights and license plate lights in conjunction with the locking and unlocking of the doors, ensuring nighttime usebility.

  3. PRECAUTION


    1. Automatic High Beam System


      1. The automatic high beam system helps ensure visibility by automatically turning the high beams on and off.

      2. However, due to control limitations of the automatic high beam system, it may be necessary to manually turn the high beams on and off. When driving, for safety reasons, make sure to change the high beams and low beams manually in accordance with the driving conditions.

      3. Under the following conditions, the automatic high beam system might not detect other vehicles or lights correctly, or the high beams might cause glare or flash pedestrians or the occupants of other vehicles. Manual operation should be used.

        Factor Condition
