Using a camera mounted to the inside of the windshield, this system detects light
sources ahead of the vehicle. Depending on the light source, the system
automatically switches the headlights to high beam for optimal visibility at night.
1Auto High-Beam (High Beam Support System)
The auto high-beam determines when to change the
headlight beams by responding to the brightness of
the lights ahead of your vehicle. In the following
cases, the system may not respond to the lights
properly:
The system operates when:
■The headlight switch is in AUTO.
• The brightness of the lights from the preceding or
oncoming vehicle is intense or poor.
• Visibility is poor due to the weather (rain, snow,
fog, windscreen frost, etc.).
■The lever is in the low beam position.
■The low beams are on and the system
recognizes that you are driving at night.
■The vehicle speed is above 40 km/h (25 mph).
• Other light sources, such as streetlights and electric
billboards are illuminating the road ahead.
• The brightness level of the road ahead constantly
changes.
• The road is bumpy or with many curves.
• A vehicle cuts in front of you, or a vehicle in front
of you is not in the preceding or oncoming
direction.
How it works
When the camera detects lights coming from a preceding or oncoming vehicle, the
headlights remain in low beam.
• Your vehicle is tilted with a heavy load in the rear.
When the camera detects no lights coming from a preceding or oncoming vehicle,
the headlights change to high beam.
If you find the timing of beam changes inconvenient
for driving, change the headlight beams manually.
The view angle or distance that the camera can detect lights ahead differs
depending on conditions, such as the brightness of the lights and the weather.
If you do not want the system to be activated at any
time when the headlight switch is in AUTO, consult a
dealer.
