switch the headlamps on by pulling the
direction indicator lever toward you. You
will hear a short tone. The headlamps will
switch off automatically after three
minutes with any door open or 30 seconds

DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING
Always remember to switch your

and may not provide adequate lighting
during these conditions. Failure to activate
your headlamps under these conditions
may result in a collision. 68

The system switches the low beam
headlamps on at a reduced intensity in
daylight conditions.
To switch the system on, switch the
ignition on, and switch the lighting control
to the off, autolamp or parking lamp
position.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
The system will automatically turn on your
high beams if it is dark enough and no other
traffic is present. When it detects an
approaching vehicle ’s headlights, a
preceding vehicle ’s tail lamps or street
lighting, the system will turn off the high
beams before they distract other drivers.
The low beams remain on.
Note: If it appears that automatic control
of the high beams is not functioning
properly, check the windshield in front of
the camera for blockage. A clear view of the
road is required for proper system operation.
Any windshield damage in the area of the
camera field-of-view should be repaired.
Note: If a blockage is detected (e.g. bird
dropping, bug splatter, snow, or ice) and no
changes are observed, the system will go
into low beam mode until the blockage is
cleared. A message may also appear in the
instrument cluster display noting the front
camera is blocked.
Note: Typical road dust, dirt and water
spots will not affect the automatic high
beam system ’s performance. However, in
cold or inclement weather conditions, the
automatic high beam system's availability
may be decreased, especially at startup. If
you want to change the beam state
independently of the system, you may turn
the high beams ON or OFF using the
multifunction switch lever. Automatic
control will resume when conditions are
correct. Note:
Modification of the vehicle ride height
(e.g. using much larger tires) may degrade
feature performance.
A camera sensor is centrally mounted
behind the windshield of the vehicle, and
monitors conditions continuously to decide
when to switch the high beams off and on.
Once the system is active, the high beams
will switch on if:
• The ambient light level is low enough
that high beams are needed.
• There is no traffic in front of the vehicle.
• The vehicle speed is greater than
25 mph (40 km/h)
.
The high beams will switch off if:
• An approaching vehicle's headlights or
a preceding vehicle's tail lamps are
detected.
• Vehicle speed falls below
16 mph
(25 km/h).
• The ambient light level is high enough
that high beams are not required.
• Severe rain, snow, or fog is detected.
• The camera is blocked.
Activating the System
Switch on the system using the information
display and autolamps. See Information
Displays
(page 83). See Autolamps
(page 67). 69

the high beams, pushing or pulling the stalk
will provide a temporary override to low
beam.
To permanently deactivate the system,
use the information display menu or turn
the lighting control switch from autolamps
to headlamps.

Signal Indicator Mirrors (If Equipped)
The outer portion of the appropriate mirror
housing will blink when the turn signal is
activated.
Integrated Blind Spot Mirrors
(If
Equipped) WARNING
Objects in the blind spot mirror are
closer than they appear.
Blind spot mirrors have an integrated
convex mirror built into the upper outboard
corner of the exterior mirrors. They are
designed to increase your visibility along
the side of your vehicle.
Check the main mirror first before a lane
change, then check the blind spot mirror.
If no vehicles are present in the blind spot
mirror and the traffic in the adjacent lane
is at a safe distance, signal that you intend
to change lanes. Glance over your shoulder
to verify traffic is clear and carefully
change lanes.
The image of the approaching vehicle is
small and near the inboard edge of the
main mirror when it is at a distance. The
image becomes larger and begins to move
outboard across the main mirror as the
vehicle approaches (A). The image will
transition from the main mirror and begin
to appear in the blind spot mirror as the
vehicle approaches (B). The vehicle will
transition to your peripheral field of view
as it leaves the blind spot mirror (C).
