For exterior lights, the headlight assemblies, front
fog  lights  <vehicles  without  discharge  headlight>
and daytime running light*have been installed to the
front of the vehicle, the side turn-signal lights to the
sides of the vehicle (to the fender panel), and the
rear  combination  light  assemblies,  tail  light
assemblies,  rear  side  marker  lights,  license  plate
lights, and high-mounted stop lights to the rear of
the vehicle.

｠

Even if the headlight assembly bracket is damaged,
the damaged bracket can be replaced.

｠

For interior lights, the front dome light, rear dome
light,  luggage  compartment  light,  glove  box  light,
center console down light, foot light, and ignition key
cylinder illumination lights have been installed.

NOTE: 

 *: Vehicles for halogen headlight:

Headlight low-beam decrease in lights. Vehicles
without discharge headlight: Light only for
daytime running light.

Uncut lenses have been adopted to the headlight
lens for an improved appearance.

LIGHTING

｠

For  the  low-beam  of  the  headlight,  the  headlight
automatic  leveling  system  vehicle  with  discharge
headlight  have  been  adopted  so  that  the  height
adjustment  of  the  optical  axis  can  be  performed
depending on the vehicle load status.

｠

The side turn-signal lights have been installed to the
fender.

｠

The rear combination lights are integrated with the
tail/stop light and rear turn-signal light.

｠

The LED type tail/stop lights have been adopted for
less  power  consumption  and  higher  safety  with
illumination speed improvement.

｠

The back-up light has been integrated into the tail
light assembly.

｠

The  LED-type  high-mounted  stop  light  has  been
integrated into the tailgate spoiler.

｠

The  lighting  system  is  provided  with  headlight
automatic-shutdown function and daytime running
light function (Refer to P.54A-10).

｠

For  the  flasher  timer  function  of  turn-signal,  the
comfort  flasher  function  has  been  adopted  to
improve  the  operability  when  changing  the  lane.
When the turn-signal light switch (lighting switch) is
operated for a short time, this function flashes the
turn-signal  light  of  the  operated  direction  three
times (Refer to P.54A-10).

Headlight automatic leveling system

The beam direction (vertical angle) of the headlights
changes according to the number of passengers and
the amount of load. The headlight automatic leveling
system  is  a  system  that  automatically  controls  the

beam  direction  of  headlights  so  that  the  drivers  of
oncoming cars are not dazzled by the headlights if the
beam direction of the headlight upwards when parking
or driving at a constant speed.

LIGHTING

Function

The  beam  direction  of  headlights  is  automatically
controlled  according  to  driving  conditions  as
described in the table below.

Vehicle condition

Control content

When parking

The  headlight  automatic  leveling  ECU  calculates  the  vehicle  pitch
angle from the height sensor values according to the change in load
resulting from getting on/off or loading/unloading to control the beam
direction.

When driving at a constant speed

When a vehicle starts on curb, the traveling vehicle posture changes
from the posture during parking, so that the beam direction changes.
To control the improper beam direction caused by such vehicle posture
change, the headlight automatic leveling ECU calculates the vehicle
pitch angle based on the average of height sensor values obtained for
12  seconds  after  the  vehicle  speed  becomes  constant.  This  beam
direction control while driving at a constant speed is performed only
once between a vehicle stop and the next stop. If driving is started at
a constant speed on the gravel or rough road, to prevent unnecessary
control  resulting  from  detection  of  road  uneven  surface,  the  beam
direction control is launched after the driving speed becomes constant
on pavement.
