DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRLS) —
I
F EQUIPPED
The Daytime Running Lights will turn on when the engine
is started and remain on unless the headlamps are turned
on, the parking brake is applied, or the ignition is placed in
the OFF position.
NOTE:
 For vehicles sold in Canada, the Daytime Running
Lights will automatically deactivate when the front fog
lights are turned on.
 If allowed by law in the country in which the vehicle was
purchased, the Daytime Running Lights can be turned
on and off using the Uconnect system
Úpage 126.
 On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights may
deactivate, 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
After the low beam headlights are turned on, push the
multifunction lever, located on the left side of the steering
wheel, away from you to switch the headlights to high
beam. Pulling the multifunction lever back will turn the low
beams on.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control system
provides increased forward lighting at night by automatically controlling the high beams through the use
of a 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 is
enabled through the Uconnect system Úpage 126.
 The multifunction lever must be in the high beam posi -
tion and the low beams must be turned on in order to
activate the Automatic High Beams.
 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.
 When set to AUTO, and the low beams are on and the
multifunction lever is in the high beam position, the
system automatically turns the high beams on or off
based on light levels of the approaching vehicles.
 Vehicle speed must be greater than 22 mph (35 km/h)
to activate Automatic High Beams. Once activated,
Automatic High Beams will remain on until the speed
falls below 15 mph (25 km/h).
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 to the AUTO position for
automatic headlight operation. 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 (depending on
customer programmable time of 30, 60, or 90 seconds)
after you place the ignition in 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.
PARKING LIGHTS
Rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the first detent
for parking lights and instrument panel lights operation.
Rotate the headlight switch to the second detent for
headlights, parking lights and instrument panel lights
operation.
NOTE:Vehicles sold in Canada are equipped with a headlight
switch with an AUTO and ON detent but without an OFF
detent. Headlights will be deactivated when the headlight
switch is placed in the parking lights position. However,
the Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) will be activated along
with the front and rear marker lights. The DRLs may be
deactivated when the parking brake is engaged.
