Tips for the high beam assist
function
.
The high beam assist function recog-
nizes the condition surrounding the vehi-
cle based on the brightness of illumination
ahead of your vehicle, etc. Therefore, the
headlight mode may switch in some
situations that do not match to the driver
’
s
sense.
.
A bicycle or cargo cycle may not be
detected.
.
Under the following situations, the high
beam assist function may not work prop-
erly. As a result, the glare of the high beam
may disturb the oncoming vehicle or
vehicle ahead. Also, the low beam mode
may continue although there are no
oncoming vehicles and vehicles ahead.
In the such cases, change the headlight
mode manually.
–
In bad weather (fog, snow, sand
storm, heavy rain, etc.)
–
When the windshield glass is dirty,
fogged, cracked or damaged
–
When the stereo camera is de-
formed or the stereo camera lenses
are dirty
–
If there are lights similar to the
headlights or the tail lights in the
surrounding area
–
When an oncoming vehicle or ve-
hicle ahead is driven without its head-
lights and tail lights on
–
If the headlights of an oncoming
vehicle or the tail lights of a vehicle
ahead are dirty or discolored, or if the
light beams are not aimed correctly
–
When a rapid change of brightness
continues while driving
–
When driving on a road with many
ups and downs, uneven surfaces or
curves
–
When there are some objects that
reflect light strongly, such as a road
sign or a mirror in vehicle ahead
–
When the rear part of the vehicle
ahead, such as a container, reflects
light strongly
–
When the headlights of your vehicle
are damaged or dirty
–
When your vehicle is tilted, such as
in case the vehicle has a flat tire or is
being towed
–
Immediately after the engine has
started
.
In the following conditions, the head-
light mode will not be automatically chan-
ged from the high beam to the low beam.
–
When your vehicle passes an on-
coming vehicle suddenly in a blind
curve
–
When another vehicle passes in
front of your vehicle
–
When an oncoming vehicle or ve-
hicle ahead comes in and out of view
because of continuous curves, median
strips, roadside trees, etc.
.
If the stereo camera detects the light of
the front fog lights of an oncoming vehicle,
the headlight mode may change from the
high beam to the low beam automatically.
.
The headlight mode may change from
the high beam to the low beam, or the low
beam mode may continue, when affected
by a street light, traffic signal, illumination
of an advertisement board, or a reflective
object such as a road sign and signboard.
.
The timing of the change of headlight
mode may differ due to the following
factors.
–
the vehicle condition (e.g., the
number of passengers or the weight
of loaded cargo)
