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).
