Active high beams (AHB)*
AHB uses a camera at the upper edge of the
windshield to detect the headlights of oncom-
ing vehicles or the taillights of a vehicle
directly ahead. When this happens, the head-
lights will automatically switch from high
beams to low beams. When the camera no
longer detects the headlights/taillights of
other vehicles, your headlights will switch
back to high beams after several seconds.
To activate AHB:
•
Turn the headlight control to the
position.
The feature will begin functioning if the engine
has been running for at least 20 seconds and
the vehicle's speed is at least 12 mph
(20 km/h).
Headlight switch in the AUTO position
Switch AHB on or off by pulling the left steer-
ing wheel lever rearward (toward the steering
wheel) as far as possible and releasing it. If
AHB is switched off while the high beams are
on, the headlights will change to low beams.
Models with an analog instrument panel
When AHB is activated, the symbol will
illuminate in the instrument panel. The high
beam indicator (
) in the instrument panel
will also illuminate when the high beams are
on.
