GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 41
High Beam And Turn Signal Controls
NOTE:
The headlights must be on for the high beams
to activate.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your
headlights by lightly pulling the multifunction
lever toward you. This will cause the headlights
to turn on at high beam and remain on until the
lever is released.
Automatic Headlights — If Equipped
This system automatically turns the headlights
on or off according to ambient light levels. To
turn the system on, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise to the last detent (AUTO position) for
automatic headlight operation. To turn the
automatic system off, move the headlight
switch out of the AUTO position.
NOTE:
The ignition must be in the ON/RUN position
before the headlights will come on in the auto-
matic mode.
Light Sensor
The light sensor is equipped with an infrared
LED, located on the windshield. It detects
changes in light intensity outside the vehicle,
based on the sensitivity of light set by using the
menu on the display or on the Uconnect system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the amount
of external light required for controlling the
lighting.
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control —
If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at
night by automating high beam control through
the use of a digital camera mounted on the
inside rearview mirror. 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 multifunction lever must be in the high
beam position in order to activate the Auto-
matic High Beams.
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
can be turned on or off using the Uconnect
System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information.
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 improp-
erly.
When set to AUTO, the system automatically
turns the headlights on or off based on ambient
light levels.
Parking Lights
Rotate the headlight switch to the first detent to
turn on the parking lights. The parking light
indicator in the instrument cluster display will
illuminate.
