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 vehicle’s header. 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 by selecting
“ON” under “Auto High Beam” within your
Uconnect settings, as well as turning the
headlight switch to the AUTO position and
placing the multifunction lever in the high
beam position. 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.
Front And Rear Fog Lights — If Equipped
The fog light switches are built into the head -
light switch. Fog Light Switch Location
To activate the front fog lights, push the
upper half of the headlight switch. To turn
off the front fog lights, push the upper half
of the headlight switch a second time.

Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and
the arrows on each side of the instrument
cluster flash to show proper operation of the
front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash,
or there is a very fast flash rate, check for a
defective outside light bulb. If an indicator
fails to light when the lever is moved, it
would suggest that the indicator bulb is
defective.
Lights-On Reminder
If the headlights, parking lights, or cargo
lights are left on after the ignition is placed
in the OFF position, a chime will sound when
the driver’s door is opened.
Headlight Leveling System — If Equipped

Your vehicle may be equipped with a headlight
leveling system. This system allows the driver
to maintain proper headlight beam position
with the road surface regardless of vehicle load.
The control switch is located on the instrument
panel next to the dimmer control.
Headlight Leveling Control
To operate, rotate the control switch until the
appropriate number, which corresponds to
the load listed on the chart, aligns with the

Power Inverter — If Equipped
There is a 230 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
located on the back of the center console to
convert DC current to AC current.
This outlet can power cellular phones, elec-
tronics and other low power devices requiring
power up to 150 Watts. Certain high-end
video game consoles exceed this power limit,
as will most power tools.
Power Inverter
The power inverter is designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter
automatically shuts down. Once the elec -
trical device has been removed from the
outlet, the inverter should automatically
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the
receptacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause
an electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is
exceeded the fuse protecting the system
will need to be replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object
in the power outlets as this will damage
the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper
use of the power outlet can cause
damage not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
CAUTION!
Many accessories that can be plugged in
draw power from the vehicle's battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in
long enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery
life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.),
will degrade the battery even more
quickly. Only use these intermittently
and with greater caution.
After the use of high power draw acces-
sories, or long periods of the vehicle not
being started (with accessories still
plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the
alternator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not hang any type of
accessory or accessory bracket from the
plug. Improper use of the power outlet
can cause damage.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
SYSTEMS — IF EQUIPPED

Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) — 2.0L T4
Petrol Versions Only
The Gasoline Particulate Filter is a mechan-
ical filter, integral to the exhaust system,
which physically traps carbon particles present in the exhaust gases of 2.0L T4
petrol engines.
The particulate filter is needed to eliminate
almost all carbon particle emissions in
compliance with current/future regulations
and standards.
Since this filter physically traps particulates,
it must be cleaned (regenerated) during
normal driving operation to remove carbon
particles. The regeneration procedure is
controlled automatically by the engine
control unit according to the filter conditions
and car use conditions.
The following may occur during regeneration:
increased levels of noise vibration and
harshness (NVH) and reduced engine
performance.
Dedicated messages can appear in the
instrument cluster display as a result of the
condition of the filter. Refer to the opening
paragraph of the "Warning Lights And
Messages" section for further information.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before
driving your vehicle. Improperly secured
loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly
at high speeds, resulting in personal
injury or property damage. Follow the roof
rack cautions when carrying cargo on your
roof rack.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the roof rack and
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum roof
rack load capacity. Always distribute
heavy loads as evenly as possible and
secure the load appropriately.
Long loads, which extend over the wind
-
shield, should be secured to both the
front and rear of the vehicle.
Place a blanket or other protection
between the surface of the roof and the
load.
Travel at reduced speeds and turn
corners carefully when carrying large or
heavy loads on the roof rack. Wind
forces, due to natural causes or nearby
truck traffic, can add sudden upward
loads. It is recommended to not carry
large flat loads, such as wood panels or
surfboards, which may result in damage
to the cargo or your vehicle.
Load should always be secured to cross
bars first, with tie down loops used as
additional securing points if needed. Tie
loops are intended as supplementary tie
down points only. Do not use ratcheting
mechanisms with the tie loops. Check
the straps frequently to be sure that the
load remains securely attached.

Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system is
enabled on vehicles when automatic trans-
mission is in manual shift mode. The GSI
provides the driver with a visual indication
when the recommended gear shift point has
been reached. This indication notifies the
driver that changing gears will allow a reduc -
tion in fuel consumption. When the up shift
indicator is shown on the instrument cluster
display, the GSI is advising the driver to
engage a higher gear. When the down shift
indicator is shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a lower gear.
The GSI remains illuminated until the driver
changes gear, or the driving conditions
return to a situation where changing gears is
not required to improve fuel consumption.
Diesel Displays
When the appropriate conditions exist, the
following messages display in the instrument
cluster display:

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages
This engine meets all required diesel engine
emissions standards. To achieve these emis -
sions standards, your vehicle is equipped
with a state-of-the-art engine and exhaust
system. These systems are seamlessly inte -
grated into your vehicle and managed by the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM
manages engine combustion to allow the
exhaust system’s catalyst to trap and burn
Particulate Matter (PM) pollutants, with no
input or interaction on your part.
WARNING!
A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you
park over materials that can burn. Such
materials might be grass or leaves coming
into contact with your exhaust system. Do
not park or operate your vehicle in areas
where your exhaust system can contact
anything that can burn.
CAUTION!
Always drive at a speed appropriate to the
traffic conditions, the weather and traffic
regulations. The engine may be switched
off even if the warning light is on: repeated
interruptions of the regeneration process
could cause an early deterioration of
engine oil. For this reason it is always
advisable to wait for the symbol to go off
before turning off the engine, following the
instructions above. Do not complete the
DPF regeneration process when the vehicle
is stopped.
