Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control — If
Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control system
provides increased forward lighting at night by automat-
ing 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:
•If your vehicle is equipped with a touchscreen the
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control can be
turned on or off using the Uconnect System. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further information.
• If your vehicle is not equipped with a touchscreen the
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control can be turned on or off using the Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display
(DID). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)” or “Driver Information Display (DID)” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” 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 improperly.
• To opt out of the Advanced Auto High-Beam Sensitiv-
ity Control (default) and enter Reduced High-Beam
Sensitivity Control (not recommended), toggle high-
beam lever 6 full on/off cycles within 10 seconds of
ignition ON. System will return to default setting upon
ignition off.
174 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

If the windshield or Automatic High Beam Headlamp
Control mirror is replaced, the mirror must be re-aimed

Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
If your vehicle is not equipped with a touchscreen, the
Automatic High Beams are enabled through the Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver Infor-
mation Display (DID). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC)” or “Driver Information Display
(DID)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for
further information. 2. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO headlight
position.
3. Push the multifunction lever away from you (toward front of vehicle) to engage the high beam mode.

•Any time you store your vehicle or keep it out of
service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the
air conditioning system at idle for about five minutes
in the fresh air and high blower setting. This will
ensure adequate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the system is
started again.
