Main Menu Table Of Contents Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) AFS Off Switch Here are some operating characteristics of the AFS: The system requires an initialization period. It does not begin to operate until you have driven the vehicle a short distance. At a stop, the right headlight turns right when you turn the steering wheel to the right. But the left headlight does not turn left when you turn the steering wheel to the left. This prevents the left headlight from pointing at oncoming traffic. AFS is turned off when the shift lever is in the R position. Automatic Headlight Adjusting System The AFS works with the automatic headlight adjusting system to sense changes in vehicle height due to driving and loading conditions of passengers and luggage, and adjusts the vertical aim of the low beam headlights automatically to compensate for load. If the headlights do not seem to be properly aimed, have the automatic headlight adjusting system inspected by your dealer. AFS OFF SWITCH This switch is at the right side of the left vent. Press it to turn the AFS on and off. When AFS is off, the AFS indicator comes on as a reminder when you turn on the headlights. When you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position, the AFS is turned on if it was on previously. 144 2008 RL
