Automatic High Beams
The Automatic High Beams 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 camera detects vehicle specific light and automatically
switches from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view.
This feature is programmable through the Uconnect
®system. Refer to “Uconnect®
Settings ” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner's Manual on the
DVD for further details.
Instrument Panel Dimmer
• Rotate the dimmer control to the extreme bottom position to fully dim the
instrument panel lights and prevent the interior lights from illuminating when a
door is opened.
• Rotate the dimmer control up to increase the brightness of the instrument panel
when the parking lights or headlights are on.
• Rotate the dimmer control up to the next detent position to fully brighten the
odometer and radio when the parking lights or headlights are on.
• Rotate the dimmer control up to the last detent position to turn on the interior
lighting.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a touchscreen, the dimming is programmable
through the Uconnect
®system. Refer to “Uconnect®Settings ” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
TURN SIGNAL/WIPER/WASHER/HIGH BEAM LEVER
Turn Signal/Lane Change Assist

QUADRA-LIFT™
The Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system provides full time load leveling capability
along with the benefit of being able to adjust vehicle height by the push of a button.
Quadra-Lift™ is available with both Quadra-Trac II
®and Quadra-Drive II™.
• The system requires that the engine be
running for all changes. When lowering
the vehicle all of the doors, including
the liftgate, must be closed.
• The Quadra-Lift™ air suspension sys-
tem uses a lifting and lowering pattern
which keeps the headlights from shin-
ing into oncoming traffic. When raising
the vehicle, the rear of the vehicle will
move up first and then the front. When
lowering the vehicle, the front will
move down first and then the rear.
• After the engine is turned off, you may
notice that the air suspension system
operates briefly. This is normal. The
system is correcting the position of the vehicle.
• To assist with changing a spare tire, the Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system has
a feature which allows the automatic leveling to be disabled. The feature controls
are located in the radio screen. Driving the vehicle over 5 mph (8 km/h) will return
the air suspension to normal operation.
• An audible chime will be heard whenever a system error has been detected.
Operation
• Pressing the “Up” or “Down” button once will move the suspension one position
higher or lower from the current position, assuming all conditions are met (i.e.,
engine running and all doors and liftgate closed).
• The 4 indicator lamps will illuminate to show the current position of the vehicle.
Flashing indicator lamps will show a position which the system is working to
achieve. If multiple indicator lamps are flashing on the “Up” button, the highest
flashing indicator lamp is the position the system is working to achieve.
• Normal Ride Height (NRH) – This is the standard position of the
suspension and is meant for normal driving. Only the bottom Indicator
lamp on the “Up” button will be illuminated when the vehicle is in this
position.

WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant.
- Transmission Temperature Warning Light
This light indicates that there is excessive transmission fluid temperature that might
occur with severe usage such as trailer towing. If this light turns on, stop the vehicle
and run the engine at idle, with the transmission in NEUTRAL, until the light turns
off. Once the light turns off, you may continue to drive normally.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission Temperature Warning Light illuminated
will eventually cause severe transmission damage or transmission failure.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the Transmission Temperature Warning
Light is illuminated you could cause the fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot
engine or exhaust components and cause a fire.
- High Beam Indicator
Indicates that headlights are on high beam.
- Front Fog Light Indicator
This indicator will illuminate when the front fog lights are on.
- Turn Signal Indicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is
operated. A tone will chime, and an EVIC message will appear if either turn signal is
left on for more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
NOTE:
If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
- Vehicle Security Light
This light will flash rapidly for approximately 15 seconds when the vehicle theft
alarm is arming. The light will flash at a slower speed continuously after the alarm is
set. The security light will also come on for about three seconds when the ignition is
first turned on.

If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable;
however, see an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing when the
engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing.

This indicator will illuminate when the electronic speed control has been activated to
the “ON” position.
