■The Automatic High Beam can be operated when
The power switch is in 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 vehicle
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 trafficals, signand 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 an oncoming or preceding vehicle only has operational lights on one side
When an 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.
●Small vehicles, such as bicycles, may not be detected.
●In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the surrounding
brightness levels, and may flash or expose nearby pedestrians to the high beam. There-
fore, you should consider turning the high beams on or off manually rather than relying
on the Automatic High Beam system.
