Auto light/AFLS position (if
equipped)
OJF045050L
When the light switch is in the AUTO
light position, the taillights and head‐
lights will be turned ON or OFF auto‐
matically depending on the amount of
light outside the vehicle.
If your vehicle is equipped with the
adaptive front lighting system (AFLS),
it will also operate when the headlamp
is ON.
CAUTION
• Never place anything over the sen‐
sor (1) located on the instrument
panel. This will ensure better au‐
to-light system control.
• Don’t clean the sensor using a win‐
dow cleaner. The cleaner may
leave a light film which could inter‐
fere with sensor operation.
• If your vehicle has window tint or
other types of metallic coating on
the front windshield, the Auto
light system may not work prop‐
erly.
High beam operation
OUM044059L
To turn on the high beam headlamp,
push the lever away from you. The lev‐
er will return to its original position.
The high beam indicator will light when
the headlight high beams are switched
on.
To prevent the battery from being dis‐
charged, do not leave the lights on for a
prolonged time while the engine is not
running.
