EXTERIOR LIGHTS
MULTIFUNCTION LEVER

Multifunction Lever

The multifunction lever controls the operation of the
turn signals, headlight beam selection and passing lights.
The multifunction lever is located on the left side of the
steering column.
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
The headlight switch is located on the left side of the
instrument panel. This switch controls the operation of the
headlights, parking lights, automatic headlights (if
equipped), instrument panel lights, and interior lights.

Headlight Switch

To turn on the headlights, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise. When the headlight switch is on, the parking
lights, taillights, license plate light and instrument panel
lights are also turned on.
The headlight switch is equipped with a momentary O (off)
detent. When the vehicle is at a standstill and the
headlight switch is held in the O (off) position, the Daytime
Running Lights (DRLs) will turn on. As soon as the vehicle
starts to move, the O (off) position is disabled and the
DRLs may turn off and low beam headlights may
automatically turn on based on exterior ambient
light levels. From the O (off) position, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise to the first detent for automatic headlights, the
second detent for parking lights and instrument panel
lights operation, or to the third detent for headlights,
parking lights, and instrument panel lights operation.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRLS) —
I
F EQUIPPED
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) (low intensity) come
on automatically whenever the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN position, and the headlight switch is turned to the
AUTO position, and the dusk sensor detects sufficient
external light.
NOTE:On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights may deac -
tivate, 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
Push the multifunction lever towards the instrument panel
to switch the headlights to high beams. The headlight
switch must first be turned to the AUTO or on position.
The high beam indicator will illuminate in the instrument
cluster when the high beams are active.
Push the lever forward again to return to low beam
headlights.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — 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 windshield. 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 through Uconnect Settings.
 This function can only be activated with the headlight
switch in the AUTO 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
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by
lightly pulling the multifunction lever toward you. This will
cause the high beam headlights to turn on, 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 AUTO position.
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 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.
HEADLIGHTS ON AUTOMATICALLY WITH
W
IPERS — IF EQUIPPED
If your vehicle is equipped with Automatic Headlights, it
also has this customer-programmable feature. When your
headlights are in the automatic mode and the engine is
running, they will automatically turn on when the wiper
system is on. This feature is programmable through the
Uconnect system.
NOTE:When your headlights come on during the daytime, the
vehicle will monitor outside brightness and decide if the
instrument panel needs to be dimmed.
HEADLIGHT DELAY
To aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with a
headlight delay that will leave the headlights on for
approximately 90 seconds. This delay is initiated when the
ignition is placed in the OFF position while the headlight
switch is on, and then the headlight switch is cycled off.
Headlight delay can be canceled by either turning the
headlight switch on then off, or by placing the ignition in
the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:The headlight delay time is programmable through
Uconnect Settings Úpage 130.
LIGHTS-ON REMINDER
If the headlights or parking lights are on after the ignition
is in the OFF position, a chime will sound to alert the driver
when the driver's door is opened.
CORNERING LIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The cornering lights are a feature to improve visibility at
night while turning the vehicle. When activated, a light
incorporated in the headlight assembly will illuminate on
the side of the vehicle the steering wheel is rotated, or that
the turn signal indicator is on. It can be activated through
the Uconnect system
Úpage 130.

Mounting Spare Tire
NOTE:

For vehicles equipped, do not attempt to install a

 For additional warnings, cautions, and information
about the spare tire, its use, and operation
Úpage 246.
7. Install and lightly tighten the wheel bolts.
8. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.

leverage. Tighten the wheel bolts in a star pattern
until each wheel bolt has been tightened twice
Úpage 265. If in doubt about the correct tightness,
have them checked with a torque wrench by an
authorized dealer or at a service station.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the
vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt
someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to
remove the tire.
CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem
facing outward. The vehicle could be damaged if the
spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do
not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result
in serious injury.
