WHEN DRIVING
INFORMATION
Camera sensor detection information
High beam may not be turned off automatically in the following situations.
• When oncoming vehicles suddenly appear from a curve.
• When the vehicle is cut in front of by another vehicle.
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 oncoming and preceding vehicles headlights, fog and tail lights.
• Road conditions (wetness, ice, snow, etc.).
• The number of passengers and amount of baggage in the vehicle.
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
brightness levels and may flash or expose nearby pedestrians to the high beam.
Therefore, you should consider turning the high beams on or off manually rather than
relying on the automatic high beam system.
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.).
• The windscreen is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• The windscreen is cracked or damaged.
• The inside rear view mirror or camera sensor is deformed or dirty.
• Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of the headlights, tail or fog lights.
• Vehicles ahead have headlights that are either switched off, dirty, are changing
colour, or are not aimed correctly.
• When driving through an area of intermittently changing brightness and darkness.
• When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending or descending roads, or roads
with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (stone-paved roads, gravel tracks, etc.).
• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a winding road.
• There is a highly reflective object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or a mirror.
• The vehicle’s headlights are damaged or dirty.
• The vehicle is listing or tilting due to a flat tyre, a trailer being towed, etc.
• The automatic high beam indicator is flashing.
• The headlights are being repeatedly switched between high beam and low beam in
an abnormal manner.
• The driver believes the high beam may be causing problems or distress to other
drivers or pedestrians nearby.
