GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 53
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 199, 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 obstructions on the windshield or camera
lens will cause the system to function improperly.
FLASH-TO-PASS
The Flash-To-Pass feature will illuminate the high beam
headlights temporarily to signal another vehicle of a
passing occurrence. Pull and hold the Multifunction Lever
to activate the Flash-To-Pass feature. When the lever is
released, the Flash-To-Pass feature will deactivate.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic Headlight System will turn the headlights
on or off according to ambient light levels. To turn the
system on, rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the
last detent for automatic headlight operation. When the
system is on, the headlight time delay feature is also on.
This means the headlights will stay on for up to
90 seconds (programmable through the Uconnect
Settings
Ú page 199) after you place the ignition into the
OFF position. To turn the automatic system off, move the
headlight switch out of the AUTO position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will
come on in the automatic mode.
LIGHTS-ON REMINDER
If the headlights or parking lights are left on after the
ignition is placed in the OFF position, the vehicle will chime
when the driver’s door is opened.
FRONT FOG LIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The Front Fog Lights are located on the front of the vehicle
below the headlights. When activated, these lights add
illumination directed at the driving surface to aid in poor
visibility conditions.
To activate the Front Fog Lights, turn on the parking lights
or low beam headlights and push the fog light switch.
