HBA may not work properly in the following situations:

  • The headlamps of an oncoming or preceding vehicle are damaged or outside the detection area

  • The headlamps of an oncoming or preceding vehicle are covered with dust, snow, etc., or are wet

  • An oncoming or preceding vehicle turns off its headlights and uses only the fog lights

  • Your vehicle detects a lamp that is shaped like a vehicle headlight.

  • The headlamps are damaged or incorrectly repaired.

  • The headlamps are not aimed properly.

  • You are driving on a narrow, curved, rough, or steep road.

  • You are driving on a crossroad or curved road and a vehicle in front of you is partially visible.

  • There is a traffic light, reflective or flashing sign, or mirror ahead.

  • There is a temporary reflector or flash ahead from a construction area.

  • Road conditions are wet, icy, snowy, or otherwise poor.

  • A vehicle suddenly appears from around a curve.

  • A vehicle is tilted because of a flat tyre or is being towed.

TIP
  • The HBA function is only for your convenience and may not work properly at times. It is the responsibility of the driver to maintain safe driving practices and always watch the road.

  • HBA may not operate for 15 seconds after you start the vehicle or after you initialize or restart the front view camera.

  • When HBA does not operate normally, manually switch the headlights between high and low beam.
