Hyundai Palisade: Exterior Lights / High Beam Assist (HBA)
The High Beam Assist (HBA) is a
system that automatically adjusts the
headlamp range (switches between

to the brightness of other vehicles
and road conditions.

turn on when vehicle speed is
above 25 mph (40 km/h).
- If the headlamp switch is pushed
away when the High Beam Assist
(HBA) is operating, the High
Beam Assist (HBA) will turn off
and the high beam will be on continuously.
- If the headlamp switch is pulled
towards you when the high beam
is off, the high beam will turn on
without the High Beam Assist
(HBA) canceled. When you let go
of the light switch, the lever will
move to the middle and the high
beam will turn off.
- If the headlamp switch is pulled
towards you when the high beam
is on by the High Beam Assist

operating, the high beam switches to
low beam if any of the following conditions
occur :
- When the headlamp of an on-coming
vehicle is detected.
