The adaptive f ront lighting system (AFS) helps to improve visibility during nigh ttime driving. The A FS controls the aiming direction and lighting distribu tion of the low beams according to the amount of turn applied to the steering wheel during cornering or turning . To turn the AFS on, turn the ignition to the ON (II) position, and turn the headlights on. If the AFS indicator comes on and starts blinking while driving, pull to the side of the road when it is safe, and turn off the engine. If the AFS indicator keeps blinking, or starts blinking again while drivin g af ter turning the ignition switch to the ON (II) position, the A FS is not working properly (see page ). Have the AFS inspected by your dealer. When the AFS indicator comes on, you will also see a ‘‘CHECK ADAPT IVE FRONT L IGHTING SYSTEM’’ message on the multi- information display (see page ).

This switch is at the right side of theleft vent. Press it to turn the AFS onand off. When AFS is off, the AFSindicator comes on as a reminder
when you turn on the headlights.
Here are some operatingcharacteristics of the AFS:
The system requires aninitialization period. It does not begin to operate until you havedriven the vehicle a short distance.
At a stop, the right headlight turnsright when you turn the steering
wheel to the right. But the left
headlight does not turn left when you turn the steering wheel to theleft. This prevents the left headlight from pointing at oncoming traffic.
AFS is turned off when the shift lever is in the R position.
The AFS works with the automaticheadlight adjusting system to sensechanges in vehicle height due todriving and loading conditions of passengers and luggage, and adjuststhe vertical aim of the low beamheadlights automatically tocompensate for load.
If the headlights do not seem to beproperly aimed, have the AutoLeveling system inspected by your dealer.
