ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and
axle) in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles
(100 km), speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws
contributes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be
detrimental and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy
conserving type lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate
conditions under which vehicle operations will occur. Refer to “Maintaining Your
Vehicle” for the recommended viscosity and quality grades.
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers)
of operation. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not
interpreted as an indication of an engine problem or malfunction.
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may
result.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
Headlights
The headlight switch is located on the left side of the instrument panel. The
headlight switch controls the operation of the headlights, side marker lights, daytime
running lights, fog lights and the dimming of the instrument cluster and interior
lighting.
Turning on the headlights will illuminate
the instrument cluster and the controls
located on the instrument panel.

Automatic Lighting — If Equipped
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 Headlights
Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO position.
When the automatic headlights are enabled, the headlight time delay is active. After
the ignition switch is placed in the STOP/OFF position, the headlights will automati-
cally turn off after approximately 90 seconds depending on the settings of the
feature.
The timing of the headlights is adjustable between 0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will come on in the automatic
mode.
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) — If Equipped
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) will turn on when the engine is started and
remain on unless the headlights are turned on, the electronic parking brake is
applied, or the engine is shut off.
The DRLs will be disabled during turn signal operation and resume operation when
the turn signal operation has ended.
Front Fog Lights — If Equipped
The front fog light switch is built into the headlight switch.
To activate the front fog lights, turn on the parking lights or the low beam headlights
and push the headlight switch. To turn off the front fog lights, push the headlight
switch a second time or turn off the headlight switch.
An indicator light in the instrument cluster illuminates when the fog lights are turned
on.
NOTE:
The fog lights will operate with the low beam headlights or parking lights on.
Selecting the high beam headlights will turn off the fog lights.
Parking Lights
Rotate the headlight switch to the first position to turn on the parking lights. The
parking light indicator in the cluster will illuminate.

Headlight Time Delay
This feature provides the safety of headlight illumination for up to 90 seconds when
leaving your vehicle in an unlit area.
The time delay of the headlights is programmable between 0, 30, 60 and 90
seconds.
Headlight Delay Activation
To activate the delay feature, place the ignition in the STOP/OFF position while theheadlights are still on. Then, turn off the headlights within two minutes. The delayinterval begins when the headlight switch is turned off.
Headlight Delay Disable
The feature is disabled by turning on the headlights, the parking lights or by placing
the ignition in the MAR/RUN position.
If you shut off the lights before the ignition is turned on, they will turn off in the
normal manner.
NOTE:
The lights must be turned off within two minutes of placing the ignition in the
STOP/OFF position to activate this feature.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by lightly pulling the multifunc-
tion lever toward you. This will cause the headlights to turn on at high beam and
remain on until the lever is released.
High Beam Headlights
To turn on the high beam headlights, push the turn signal lever forward (toward thefront of the vehicle) and an indicator will illuminate in the cluster. To turn off the highbeams, pull the turn signal lever rearward (toward the rear of the vehicle).
NOTE:
The headlights must be on for the high
beams to activate.
