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 A (AUTO) position.
When the system is on, the Headlight Delay feature is also on. This means the
headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds after you turn the ignition switch to the
OFF position. To turn the automatic headlights off, turn the headlight switch out of
the AUTO position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will turn on in the Automatic
Mode.
Automatic High Beam — 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 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 can be turned on or off using theUconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” in the Owner’s Manual on the DVD 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 windshield or camera lens will cause the
system to function improperly.
• To opt out of the Advanced Auto High-Beam Sensitivity Control (default) and enter Reduced High-Beam Sensitivity Control (not recommended), toggle highbeam
lever 6 full on/off cycles within 10 seconds of ignition ON. System will return to
default setting upon ignition off.
If the windshield or Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control mirror is replaced, the
mirror must be re-aimed to ensure proper performance. See your local authorized
dealer.
Interior Lights
Courtesy and dome lights are turned on when the front doors are opened or when the
dimmer control (rotating wheel on the right side of the headlight switch) is rotated to
its farthest upward position. If your vehicle is equipped with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and the UNLOCK button is pressed on the RKE transmitter the courtesy and
dome lights will turn on. When a door is open and the interior lights are on, rotating
the dimmer control all the way down, to the OFF detent, will cause all the interior
lights to go out. This is also known as the “Party” mode because it allows the doors
to stay open for extended periods of time without discharging the vehicle’s battery.

AUTOMATIC DIMMING MIRRORS
The rearview and driver side exterior mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare
from vehicles behind you.
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL
When engaged, the Electronic Speed Control takes over accelerator operations at
speeds greater than 25 mph (40 km/h).
The Electronic Speed Control buttons are located on the right side of the steering
wheel.
NOTE:
In order to ensure proper operation, the
Electronic Speed Control System has
been designed to shut down if multiple
Speed Control functions are operated at
the same time. If this occurs, the Elec-
tronic Speed Control System can be re-
activated by pushing the Electronic
Speed Control ON/OFF button and reset-
ting the desired vehicle set speed.
To Activate
Push the ON/OFF button to activate the
electronic speed control. CRUISE CON-
TROL READY will appear on the instru-
ment cluster to indicate the electronic
speed control is on. To turn the system
off, push the ON/OFF button a second
time. CRUISE CONTROL OFF will appear
on the instrument cluster to indicate the
electronic speed control is off. The sys-
tem should be turned off when not in use.
WARNING!
Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You
could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could
lose control and have an accident. Always leave the system OFF when you are not
using it.

The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This feature is activated whenever you turn
on the rear window defroster.
PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST
ParkSense can be enabled and disabled by pushing the ParkSense switch located
below the climate controls, on the switch panel.
The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200 cm) from the
rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in
front of the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 47 inches (120 cm) from the
front fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
When an object is detected within 79 inches (200 cm) behind the rear bumper while
the vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the Driver Information Display
(DID). In addition a chime will sound (when Sound and Display is selected from the
Customer Programmable Features section of the Uconnect System screen). As the
vehicle moves closer to the object, the chime rate will change from single 1/2 second
tone (for rear only), to slow (for rear only), to fast, to continuous.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

Built-In Features
WARNING!
• ALWAYS obey traffic laws and pay attention to the road. Some UconnectAccess services, including 9-1-1 and Assist, will NOT work without an operable
1X (voice/data) or 3G (data) network connection.
• ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the steering wheel. You have full
responsibility and assume all risks related to the use of the Uconnect features
and applications in this vehicle. Only use Uconnect when it is safe to do so.
Failure to do so may result in an accident involving serious injury or death.
• Ignoring the rearview mirror light could mean you may not have 9-1-1 Call
service if needed. If the rearview mirror light is illuminated, have an authorized
dealer service the 9-1-1 Call system immediately.
• The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) turns on the Air Bag Warning Light on
the instrument panel if a malfunction is detected in any part of the airbag
system. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated, the air bag system may not
be working properly and the 9-1-1 system may not send a signal to a 9-1-1
operator if an air bag is deployed. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated,
have an authorized dealer service your vehicle immediately.
• If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger (e.g., fire or smoke is visible,
dangerous road conditions or location), do not wait for voice contact from a
9-1-1 operator. All occupants should exit the vehicle immediately and move to
a safe location.
• The 9-1-1 Call system is embedded into the vehicle’s electrical system. Do not
add aftermarket electrical equipment to the vehicle’s electrical system. This
may prevent your vehicle from sending a signal to initiate an emergency call. To
avoid interference that can cause the 9-1-1 Call system to fail, never add
aftermarket equipment (e.g., two-way mobile radio, CB radio, data recorder,
etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical system or modify the antennas on your vehicle.
• IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES BATTERY POWER FOR ANY REASON (INCLUDING
DURING OR AFTER AN ACCIDENT), the Uconnect features, apps and ser-
vices, among others, will not operate.

light will turn off once the 9-1-1 call is terminated. Have an authorized dealer
service the vehicle if the rearview mirror light is continuously red. On equipped
vehicles, this feature requires a functioning electrical system and an operable 1X
(voice/data) or 3G (data) network connection to function properly. If a connection
is made between a 9-1-1 operator and your vehicle, you understand and agree that
