Automatic headlights adjustment?
1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
March 30, 2025
To adjust the automatic headlights on a 2025 Toyota 4Runner:
1. Ensure the power switch is in the ON position. 2. Turn the headlight switch to AUTO mode. This enables the headlights to turn on and off automatically based on surrounding light conditions. 3. The system uses a front camera to detect brightness and adjust between high and low beams automatically. 4. If needed, press the switch for the Automatic High Beam to enable or disable this function.
Manual adjustment of when the headlights activate based on ambient light is not mentioned, so further customization may not be available.

Do you have a question about the 4RUNNER 2025 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
Automatic headlights adjustment?
To adjust the automatic headlights on a 2025 Toyota 4Runner:
1. Ensure the power switch is in the ON position.
2. Turn the headlight switch to AUTO mode. This enables the headlights to turn on and off automatically based on surrounding light conditions.
3. The system uses a front camera to detect brightness and adjust between high and low beams automatically.
4. If needed, press the switch for the Automatic High Beam to enable or disable this function.
Manual adjustment of when the headlights activate based on ambient light is not mentioned, so further customization may not be available.
