The Automatic High Beam can be operated when
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
Camera sensor detection information
High beam may not be automatically turned off 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 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.
The following factors may affect the amount of time taken to turn high beam on or off:
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 may be turned on or off when unexpected by the driver.
In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the surrounding
