60 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE:
For vehicles sold in Canada, rotate the headlight
switch clockwise from the parking lights and
instrument panel light position to the first detent to
turn on headlights, parking lights, and instrument
panel light. Rotate the headlight switch to the
second detent for the AUTO position.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
(DRLS) — IF EQUIPPED
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) are in a
dedicated position below the headlight assembly.
DRLs are active when the low beams are not on
while the vehicle’s transmission is in any position
(automatic transmission), or when the vehicle
begins to move (manual transmission).
NOTE:
For vehicles sold in Canada, the DRLs will auto-
matically deactivate when the front fog lights
are turned on.
On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights
may deactivate, or reduce intensity, on one side
of the vehicle (when a turn signal is activated on
that side), or on both sides of the vehicle (when
the hazard warning lights are activated).
HIGH/LOW BEAM SWITCH
The High/Low Beam switch is located within the
multifunction lever on the left side of the steering
wheel. High beam headlights can be used for
improved visibility in low lit areas when there is no
oncoming traffic. Otherwise, it is recommended to
use the low beam headlights to reduce glare to
other vehicles.
With the headlight switch activated, push the
multifunction lever toward the instrument panel to
switch the headlights to high beams. The lever will
return to the centered position. To return the
headlights to low beam, pull the lever toward the
steering wheel, or push the lever toward the
instrument panel.
Multifunction Lever
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at night
by automatically controlling the high beams
through the use of a camera mounted on the
vehicle’s header. This camera detects vehicle
specific light and automatically switches from high
beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle
is out of view.
NOTE:
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
can be turned on or off by selecting “ON” under
“Auto Dim High Beams” within your Uconnect
Settings Ú page 228, as well as turning the
headlight switch to the AUTO position and
placing the multifunction lever in the high beam
position.
Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and
taillights of vehicles in the field of view will
cause headlights to remain on longer (closer to
the vehicle). Also, dirt, film, and other obstruc-
tions on the windshield or camera lens will
cause the system to function improperly.
