    2. Light Emitting Diode (LED) Headlight System (Models with LED Type Headlight)


      1. The LED headlight system uses LEDs as its light source. This system consists of LEDs and LED driver modules.

      2. The fail-safe function is provided in case that problem occurs in the headlight system.

    3. Automatic Light Control System (Models with 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.

    4. Light Automatic Turn-off System


      1. This system automatically turns off the headlights, taillights, and so on when the power switch is turned off.

    5. Automatic Headlight Beam Level Control System (Models with Automatic Headlight Beam Level Control System)


      1. When the headlights are on, the automatic headlight beam level control system operates the headlight leveling motor in accordance with the movement of the vehicle.

    6. Manual Headlight Beam Level Control System (Models with Manual Headlight Beam Level Control System)


      1. The manual headlight beam level control system keeps the beam of the headlight adjusted to the appropriate level in accordance with the number (weight) of passengers and volume of luggage.

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


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

    8. Daytime Running Light


      1. The daytime running light system is designed to automatically illuminate the daytime running light LEDs during the daytime to keep the vehicle highly visible to other vehicles.

    9. Automatic High Beam (AHB) System (Models with AHB System)


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

  3. PRECAUTION


    1. Automatic High Beam (AHB) System (Models with Automatic High Beam (AHB) System)


      1. The automatic high beam system is a system that 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 according to 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
        Weather/Climate
        • When driving in bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.).

        • When the temperature in the cabin is very high.

        Windshield Glass
        • When the windshield glass is not clear (ice, snow or frost on the glass).

        • When the windshield glass is dirty (sand, mud, water stains or bugs on the glass).

        • When the windshield glass is cracked.

        • When the windshield glass is fogged-up.

        • When the windshield glass has a film attached.

        • When an object on the instrument panel reflects off of the windshield glass.

        • When any other abnormal conditions exist with the windshield glass.

        Forward Recognition Camera
        • When the forward recognition camera is deformed.

        • When the forward recognition camera is dirty.

        • When any other abnormal conditions exist with the forward recognition camera.

        Nearby Vehicles or Lights
        • When lights similar to headlights or taillights are in the vicinity of the vehicle.

        • When a nearby vehicle has no lights or its lights are off.

        • When a vehicle in front has misaligned lights, or its lights are changing color.

        • When a vehicle in front has extremely dirty headlights or taillights.

        Road Conditions
        • When driving in an area where the conditions often change between bright and dark.

        • When driving on a road with many uphill and downhill slopes.

        • When driving on a winding road or around a sharp curve.

        • When driving on a bumpy road (cobblestone pavement, gravel road, rough unpaved road, etc.).

        • When highly reflective objects are in front of the vehicle (mirrors, road signs, etc.).

        Vehicle Conditions
        • When the headlights are damaged, deformed or dirty.

        • When the vehicle posture is abnormal due to flat tire (or posture has changed due to the vehicle being fully loaded, a trailer being towed, etc.).

        • When the vehicle has other malfunctions or if the vehicle has been modified.

        Automatic High Beam (AHB) System

        Malfunction:


        • When the automatic high beam indicator light on the combination meter assembly is blinking or not illuminating.

        Others:


        • When the Automatic High Beam (AHB) system does not seem to be changing between the high beams and low beams properly.

        • When the Automatic High Beam (AHB) system is frequently changing between the high beams and low beams.

        • When the glare from the high beams would disturb pedestrians or the drivers of other vehicles.
