Hyundai Sonata: Lighting System / Head Lamps Description and Operation
| 1. |
Bulb
| (1) |
Elements
Xenon gas : Xenon gas activates the initial reaction for rapid illuminating.
Molybdenum electrode: anode arcing
Metal halide salts: color composing component |
| (2) |
Lightening principle
When Xenon gas and metal halide salt will discharge the molybdenum anode in a capsule, it emits light. |
|
| 2. |
Ignitor
Ignitor (A) is an electromagnetic transformer that receives
current from ballast and boost voltage to light on the arc light source
in any environment. 
|
| 3. |
Ballast
| (1) |
Ballast (A) delivers an instant high voltage pulse to the ignitor electrode, to initialize discharge in the source. |
| (2) |
Ballast supplies the stable power to the bulb and the ignitor during initialization and normal state of arc.

BI-FUNCTION
| (1) |
Definition
| A. |
A headlamp with integrated functions of high and low beam. |
| B. |
The light is controlled by rotating the shield inserted to the lens (A solenoid is adopted) |
|
| (2) |
Structure and mechanism
| A. |
Case of working as a low beam
: The light illuminates to the restricted area of low beam by blocking the light with the stopped shield. 
|
| B. |
Case of working as a high beam
: The light is not blocked by the open shield and the light illuminates to the area of high beam. 
|
|
|
| 5. |
High Beam Assist (HBA)
| (1) |
Definition : High Beam Assist System is a convenience system that automatically switches the head lamp from high to low.
It uses the LDWS Unit (camera embedded) mounted on front
windshield to detect the lamp of on-coming vehicle or the vehicle in
front, as well as illumination intensity of surrounding environment, and
automatically controls the head lamp to high or low. |
| (2) |
Activation Conditions
| (1) |
Light Switch at "AUTO", High Beam ON (push). |
| (2) |
HBA activates when the vehicle speed exceeds 40km/h (28mph).
| A. |
If the light switch is push while HBA system is active and high beam is OFF, then HBA system is turned OFF and high beam is ON. |
|
| (3) |
HBA Deactivation Conditions
| A. |
When detecting head lamp light from on-coming and preceding vehicle. |
| B. |
When surrounding environment is bright enough and doesn't require high beam. |
| C. |
When there is street lamp or other light in front. |
| D. |
When vehicle speed is reduced to below 35km/h (18mph). |
