Combination headlights and dimmer switch
NOTE
The AHB recognises environmental condi-
tions by sensing a light source ahead of your
vehicle. Therefore, you may feel like some-
thing is not quite right when the headlight
beams are switched automatically.
The AHB may not detect a light vehicle such
5
as a bicycle.
The AHB may not detect an ambient bright-
ness precisely. This causes the traffic to be
dazzled by high beam or the low beam to be
maintained. In such cases, you should switch
the headlight beams manually.
• In bad weather (heavy rain, fog, snow or
sandstorm).
• The windshield is dirty or fogged up.

• A light, which is similar to the headlights or
tail lights, is shining around your vehicle.

headlight beams is adjusted improperly.
• It becomes dark and bright suddenly and
continuously around your vehicle.
• Your vehicle is driven on uneven surfaces.
• Your vehicle is driven on a winding road.

cle.
