HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Each time direction instructions (left/right or
forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are
given, these must be intended as regarding
an occupant in the driver's seat. Special
cases not complying with this rule will be
properly specified in the text.
The figures in this User Guide are provided
by way of example only: this might imply that
some details of the image do not correspond
to the actual arrangement of your vehicle.
In addition, the User Guide has been
conceived considering vehicles with the
steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore
possible that in vehicles with the steering
wheel on the right side, the position or
construction of some controls is not exactly
mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information
needed you can consult the index at the end
of this User Guide.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedi-
cated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd
page. A few pages further there is a key for
getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is always
a textual indication of the current chapter at
the side of each even page.Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored
labels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be observed when using this component.
Refer to “Warning Lights and Messages” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information on the symbols used
in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
This vehicle has a higher ground clearance
and a higher center of gravity than many
passenger vehicles. It is capable of
performing better in a wide variety of off-road
applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all
vehicles can go out of control. Because of the
higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out
of control it may roll over when some other
vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneu
-
vers, or other unsafe driving actions that can
cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to
operate this vehicle safely may result in a
collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe
or fatal injury. Drive carefully.
Rollover Warning Label
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat
belts provided is a major cause of severe or
fatal injury. In a rollover crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likely to die than
a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle
up.

when the engine is started and remain on
unless the headlamps are turned on or the
ignition is in the OFF position.

high beams. Pulling the multifunction lever
back toward the steering wheel will return
the lights to low beams.
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.

headlights by lightly pulling the multifunc -
tion lever toward you. This will cause the

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.
