4-3. Operating the lights and wipers

To make your vehicle more visible 
to other drivers during daytime 
driving, the daytime running lights 
turn on automatically when all of 
the following conditions are met. 
(The daytime running lights are 
not designed for use at night.)

• The engine is running
• The parking brake is released

• The headlight switch is in the 

 

or 

*

 position

*

: When the surroundings are bright

The daytime running lights remain 
on after they illuminate, even if the 
parking brake is set again.

For the U.S.A.: Daytime running 
lights can be turned off by operat-
ing the switch.

Compared to turning on the head-
lights, the daytime running light 
system offers greater durability 
and consumes less electricity, so 
it can help improve fuel economy.

Headlight control sensor

The sensor may not function prop-
erly if an object is placed on the sen-
sor, or anything that blocks the 
sensor is affixed to the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor 
detecting the level of ambient light 
and may cause the automatic head-
light system to malfunction.

Automatic light off system

When the headlights are on: The 
headlights and tail lights turn off 
30 seconds after the driver’s door 
is opened and closed if the engine 
switch is turned to ACC or OFF. 
(Vehicles with a wireless remote 
control: The lights turn off immedi-

ately if 

 on the key is pressed 

after all the doors are closed.)

When only the tail lights are on: 
The tail lights turn off automati-
cally if the engine switch is turned 
to ACC or OFF and the driver’s 
door is opened.

To turn the lights on again, turn the 
engine switch to ON, or turn the light 
switch off once and then back to 

 or 

 (except for the Canada).

Light reminder buzzer

A buzzer sounds when the engine 
switch is turned to OFF or ACC and 
the driver’s door is opened while the 
lights are turned on.

Windshield wiper linked head-
light illumination

When driving during daytime with 

the headlight switch turned to 

, if 

the windshield wipers are used, the 
headlights will turn on automatically 
after several seconds to help 
enhance the visibility of your vehi-
cle.

Battery-saving function

In order to prevent the battery of the 
vehicle from discharging, if the 
headlights and/or tail lights are on 
when the engine switch is turned off 
the battery saving function will oper-
ate and automatically turn off all the 
lights after approximately 20 min-
utes. When the engine switch is 
turned to ON, the battery-saving 
function will be disabled.
When any of the following are per-
formed, the battery-saving function 
is canceled once and then reacti-
vated. All the lights will turn off auto-
matically 20 minutes after the 
Battery- saving function has been 
reactivated:

AHB (Automatic High 

Beam)

The Automatic High Beam 

uses a front camera located 

on the upper portion of the 

windshield to detect the 

brightness of the lights of 

vehicles ahead, street-

lights, etc., and automati-

cally changes the head 

lights between the high 

beams and low beams.

WARNING

For safe use

Do not overly rely on the Auto-

matic High Beam. Always drive 

safely, taking care to observe your 

surroundings and turning the high 

beams on or off manually if nec-

essary.

• There are few streetlights or other 

lights on the road ahead.

If any of the following conditions 
are met, the headlights will 
change to the low beams:

• Vehicle speed drops below 

approximately 17 mph (27 km/h).

• The area ahead of the vehicle is 

not dark.

• There is a vehicle ahead with 

lights on.

• There are many streetlights or

The headlights may change to the 
low beams if a vehicle ahead that 
is using fog lights without its head-
lights turned on is detected.

House lights, street lights, traffic 
signals, and illuminated billboards 
or signs may cause the high 
beams to change to the low 
beams, or the low beams to 
remain on.

The following may change the tim-
ing at which the headlights 
change to the low beams:

• The brightness of lights of vehi-

cles ahead

• The movement and direction of 

vehicles ahead

• The distance between the vehicle 

and a vehicle ahead

• When a vehicle ahead only has 

lights illuminated on one side

• When a vehicle ahead is a 

two-wheeled vehicle

• The condition of the road (gradi-

ent, curve, condition of the road 
surface, etc.)

• The number of passengers and 

amount of luggage

The headlights may change 
between the high beams and low 
beams unexpectedly.

To help prevent incorrect fueling, 

your vehicle has a fuel tank opening 

that only accommodates the spe-

cial nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.

If the malfunction indicator

Perform the following steps 

to open the fuel tank cap:

Before refueling the vehi-

cle

WARNING

When refueling the vehicle

Observe the following precautions 

while refueling the vehicle. Failure 

to do so may result in death or 

serious injury.

After exiting the vehicle and 

before opening the fuel door, 

touch an unpainted metal sur-

face to discharge any static 

electricity. It is important to dis-

charge static electricity before 

refueling because sparks result-

ing from static electricity can 

cause fuel vapors to ignite while 

refueling.

Always hold the grips on the 

fuel tank cap and turn it slowly 

to remove it.

A whooshing sound may be 

heard when the fuel tank cap is 

loosened. Wait until the sound 

cannot be heard before fully 

removing the cap. In hot 

weather, pressurized fuel may 

spray out the filler neck and 

cause injury.

Do not allow anyone that has 

not discharged static electricity 

from their body to come close to 

an open fuel tank.

Do not inhale vaporized fuel.

Fuel contains substances that 

are harmful if inhaled.

Do not smoke while refueling 

the vehicle.

Doing so may cause the fuel to 

ignite and cause a fire.

Do not return to the vehicle or 

touch any person or object that 

is statically charged.

This may cause static electricity 

to build up, resulting in a possi-

ble ignition hazard.

When refueling

Observe the following precautions 

to prevent fuel overflowing from 

the fuel tank:

Securely insert the fuel nozzle 

into the fuel filler neck.

Stop filling the tank after the fuel 

nozzle automatically clicks off.

PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-

tem)

The pre-collision system 
uses sensors to detect 
objects (

P.185) in the path 

of the vehicle. When the 
system determines that the 
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with a detectable 
object is high, a warning 
operates to urge the driver 
to take evasive action and 
the potential brake pressure 
is increased to help the 
driver avoid the collision. If 
the system determines that 
the possibility of a collision 
is extremely high, the 
brakes are automatically 
applied to help avoid the 
collision or help reduce the 
impact of the collision.

The pre-collision system 
can be disabled/enabled 
and the warning timing can 
be changed. (

Pre-collision warning

When the system determines 

that the possibility of a collision 

is high, a buzzer will sound and 

an icon and warning message 

will be displayed on the 

multi-information display to urge 

the driver to take evasive action.
If the detectable object is a vehi-

cle, moderate braking will be 

performed with the warning.

If the system determines that 

the accelerator pedal is strongly 

depressed, the following icon 

and message will be displayed 

on the multi-information display.

WARNING

For safe use

Driving safely is solely the 

responsibility of the driver. Pay 

careful attention to the sur-

rounding conditions in order to 

ensure safe driving.

Never use the pre-collision sys-

tem in place of normal braking 

operations. This system cannot 

help avoid or reduce the impact 

of a collision in every situation. 

Over-reliance on this system to 

drive the vehicle safely may 

lead to an accident resulting in 

death or serious injury.

Although the pre-collision sys-

tem is designed to help avoid or 

help reduce the impact of a col-

lision, its effectiveness may 

change according to various 

conditions. Therefore, it may not 

always be able to achieve the 

same level of performance.

Read the following items care-

fully. Do not overly rely on this 

system and always drive care-

fully.

Pre-collision brake assist

If the system determines that 
the possibility of a collision is 
high and the brake operation by 
the driver is insufficient, the 
braking power will be increased.

Pre-collision brake control

If the system determines that 
the possibility of a collision is 
extremely high, the brakes are 
automatically applied to help 
avoid the collision or reduce the 
impact of the collision.

Emergency steering assist

If the system determines that 
the following conditions are met, 
assistance will be provided to 
help enhance vehicle stability 
and prevent lane departure. 
During assistance, in addition to 
the pre-collision warning, the fol-
lowing icon will be displayed on 
the multi-information display.

Acceleration Suppression 

at Low Speed

When driving at a low speed, if 

the accelerator pedal is strongly 

depressed and the system 

determines that there is a possi-

bility of a collision, engine output 

will be restrained or the brakes 

will be applied weakly to restrict 

acceleration. During operation, 

a buzzer will sound and a warn-

ing indicator and message will 

be displayed on the multi-infor-

mation display.

WARNING

Pre-collision braking

When the pre-collision braking 

function is operating, a large 

amount of braking force will be 

applied.

The pre-collision braking func-

tion is not designed to hold the 

vehicle stopped. If the vehicle is 

stopped by pre-collision brake 

control, the driver should oper-

ate the brakes immediately as 

necessary.

The pre-collision braking func-

tion may not operate if certain 

operations are performed by the 

driver. If the accelerator pedal is 

being depressed strongly or the 

steering wheel is being turned, 

the system may determine that 

the driver is taking evasive 

action and possibly prevent the 

pre-collision braking function 

from operating.

If the brake pedal is being 

depressed, the system may 

determine that the driver is tak-

ing evasive action and possibly 

delay the operation timing of the 

pre-collision brake control.
