Mazda 6 Owners Manual: To Operate the System
The High Beam Control System (HBC) operates to switch the headlights automatically between high and low beams after the ignition is switched ON and the headlight switch is in the AUTO and high beam position.
The High Beam Control System (HBC) determines that it is dark based on the brightness of the surrounding area. At the same time, the High Beam Control System (HBC) indicator light (green) in the instrument cluster illuminates.
NOTE
- When the vehicle speed is about 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, the headlights
automatically switch to high beams when there are no vehicles ahead or approaching
in the opposite direction.
When the vehicle speed is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph), the High Beam Control System (HBC) switches the headlights to low beams.
- The low beams may not switch to high beams when cornering.
- Operation of the High Beam Control System (HBC) function can be disabled.
