Daytime Running Lights (DRL) — If
Equipped
The Daytime Running Lights will turn on
when the engine is started and remain on
unless the headlamps are turned on or the
ignition is in the OFF position.
NOTE:
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. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner’s
Manual for further details.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever toward the
instrument panel to switch the headlights to
high beams. Pulling the multifunction lever
back toward the steering wheel will return
the lights to low beams.
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
— 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 inside rearview mirror. This cameradetects vehicle specific light and automati
-
cally 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 using the
Uconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner’s
Manual 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 wind -
shield 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 multifunc -
tion 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 head -
lights on or off according to ambient light
levels. To turn the system on, rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the last detent
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 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 head
-
lights will come on in the automatic mode.
Headlight Time Delay
This feature provides the safety of headlight
illumination for up to 90 seconds (program -
mable) when leaving your vehicle in an unlit
area.
To activate the delay feature, place the igni -
tion in the OFF position while the headlights
are still on. Then, turn off the headlights
within 45 seconds. The delay interval begins
when the headlight switch is turned off.
If you turn the headlights or parking lights
on, or place the ignition in ACC or RUN, the
system will cancel the delay.
If you turn the headlights off before the igni -
tion, they will turn off in the normal manner.

SAFETY
130
Periodic Safety Checks You Should Make
Outside The Vehicle
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear and
uneven wear patterns. Check for stones,
nails, glass, or other objects lodged in the
tread or sidewall. Inspect the tread for cuts
and cracks. Inspect sidewalls for cuts,
cracks, and bulges. Check the wheel nuts for
tightness. Check the tires (including spare)
for proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation of
brake lights and exterior lights while you
work the controls. Check turn signal and high
beam indicator lights on the instrument
panel.
Door Latches
Check for proper closing, latching, and
locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under the vehicle after overnight
parking for fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid
leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or
if fuel, or brake fluid leaks are suspected, the
cause should be located and corrected
immediately.
NEVER place any objects under the floor
mat (e.g., towels, keys, etc.). These
objects could change the position of the
floor mat and may cause interference
with the accelerator, brake, or clutch
pedals.
If the vehicle carpet has been removed
and re-installed, always properly attach
carpet to the floor and check the floor
mat fasteners are secure to the vehicle
carpet. Fully depress each pedal to
check for interference with the acceler-
ator, brake, or clutch pedals then
re-install the floor mats.
It is recommended to only use mild soap
and water to clean your floor mats. After
cleaning, always check your floor mat
has been properly installed and is
secured to your vehicle using the floor
mat fasteners by lightly pulling mat.

High Intensity Discharge (HID)
Headlamps — If Equipped
The headlamps contain a type of high voltage
discharge light source. High voltage can
remain in the circuit even with the headlamp
switch off. Because of this, you should not
attempt to service a HID headlamp light
source yourself. If an HID headlamp light
source fails, take your vehicle to an autho-
rized dealer for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with HID headlamps,
when the headlamps are turned on, there is
a blue hue to the lights. This diminishes and
becomes more white after approximately 10
seconds, as the system charges.
Replacing Exterior Bulbs
Headlamps
Hi/Lo Beam Light Halogen
The bulbs can be accessed from the wheel
liner with the following procedure:
1. Turn the front wheels completely.
2. Remove the wheel liner.
3. Remove the headlamp bulb cap.

4. Rotate the headlamp bulb socket coun -
terclockwise then pull outwards. Headlamp Bulb Socket
5. Push on the locking tab on the headlamp bulb connector and remove the bulb and

8. Reinstall the wheel liner.
NOTE:
We advise referring to an authorized dealer.
WARNING!
A transient high voltage occurs at the bulb
sockets of HID headlamps when the
headlamp switch is turned ON. It may
cause serious electrical shock or
electrocution if not serviced properly. See
an authorized dealer for service.
