i-ACTIVSENSE

• Headlights do not blind drivers approaching in the opposite direction no matter what side of the road you must drive your vehicle (left-hand or right-hand traffic). Therefore, it is not necessary to adjust the optical axis of the headlights when switching temporarily to driving on the opposite side of the road (left-hand or right-hand traffic).

• The Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) function can be switched to operable/inoperable using the personalisation function.

  Refer to Personalisation Features (Search).

The timing in which the system switches the headlights changes under the following conditions. If the system does not switch the headlights appropriately, manually switch between high and low beams according to the visibility as well as road and traffic conditions.

• When there are sources of light in the area such as street lamps, illuminated signboards, and traffic signals.

• When there are reflective objects in the surrounding area such as reflective plates and signs.

• When visibility is reduced under rain, snow and foggy conditions.

• When driving on roads with sharp turn or hilly terrain.

• When the headlights/rear lamps of vehicles in front of you or in the opposite lane are dim or not illuminated.

• When there is sufficient darkness such as at dawn or dusk.

• When the luggage compartment is loaded with heavy objects or the rear passenger seats are occupied.

• When visibility is reduced due to a vehicle in front of you spraying water from its tyres onto your windscreen.

The headlight high-beam indicator light turns on while the high beams are on.

Under the following conditions, the ALH may not operate normally. Manually switch between the high and low beams according to the visibility, and the road and traffic conditions.

• The radar sensors are regulated by the relevant radio wave laws of the country in which the vehicle is driven. If the vehicle is driven abroad, authorization from the country in which the vehicle is driven may be required.
