Camera sensor detection information
High beam may not be automatically turned off or changed to variable
shade beam in the following situations:
• When oncoming vehicles suddenly appear from a curve
• When the vehicle is cut in front of by another
• When oncoming or preceding vehicles are hidden from sight due to
repeated curves, road dividers or roadside trees
High beam may be turned off or variable shade beam may be changed to if
an oncoming vehicle that is using fog lights without using the headlights is
detected.
House lights, street lights, red traffic signals, and illuminated billboards or
signs may cause the high beam to turn off or variable shade beam to be
changed to and may change the area that is shielded.
The following factors may affect the amount of time taken to turn high
beam on or off, or the speed by which the shielded areas change:
• The brightness of headlights, fog lights, and tail lights of oncoming and
preceding vehicles
• The movement and direction of oncoming and preceding vehicles
• When a oncoming or preceding vehicle only has operational lights on
one side
• When a oncoming or preceding vehicle is a two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradient, curve, condition of the road surface
etc.)
• The number of passengers and amount of luggage
High beam and variable shade beam may be turned on or off when unex-
pected by the driver.
Small vehicles, such as bicycles, may not be detected.
