    • The initialization is completed if the AFS OFF indicator light flashes three times every 0.25 s  and turns off. Go to the next step.

    • If the AFS OFF indicator light turns on, the headlight auto leveling system may have a malfunction. Perform the DTC inspection. (See DTC INSPECTION [ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS)] .)
