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. In-
spect the tread for cuts and cracks.
Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks and
bulges. Check the wheel nuts fortightness. Check the tires (including
spare) for proper cold inflation pres-
sure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation
of exterior lights while you work the
controls. Check turn signal and high
beam indicator lights on the instru-
ment panel.
Door Latches
Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking.Fluid Leaks
Check area under vehicle after over-
night parking for fuel, engine coolant,
oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gaso-
line fumes are detected or if fuel,
power steering fluid, or brake fluid
leaks are suspected, the cause should
be located and corrected immediately.

“Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further infor-
mation.
SMARTBEAM™
The SmartBeam™ system provides
increased forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control
through the use of a digital camera
mounted on the inside rearview mir-
ror. This camera detects vehicle spe-
cific light and automatically switches
from high beams to low beams until
the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE:
 SmartBeam™ can be turned on or off using the Uconnect
Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further infor-
mation.
 Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and taillights of ve-
hicles in the field of view will
cause headlights to remain on
longer (closer to the vehicle).
Also, dirt, film, and other ob-
structions on the windshield or camera lens will cause the sys-
tem to function improperly.
DAYTIME RUNNING
LIGHTS (DRLs)
DRLs come ON when the vehicle is
running and shifted out of park, the
headlights are OFF and the parking
brake is OFF. The headlight switch
must be used for normal nighttime
driving. If a turn signal is activated,
the DRL lamp on the same side of the
vehicle will turn off for the duration of
the turn signal activation. Once the
turn signal is no longer active, the
DRL lamp will illuminate.
NOTE:
Depending on your area's regula-
tions, DRLs may be able to be
turned on and off. The DRLs can
be turned on and off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information. ADAPTIVE BI-XENON
HIGH INTENSITY
DISCHARGE HEADLIGHTS
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This system automatically swivels the
headlight beam pattern horizontally
to provide increased illumination in
the direction the vehicle is steering.
NOTE:
 Each time the Adaptive Head-
light System is turned on, the
headlights will initialize by per-
forming a brief sequence of rota-
tions.
 The Adaptive Headlight System is active only when the vehicle is
moving forward.
The Adaptive Headlight System
can be turned On or Off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.

LIGHTS-ON REMINDER
If the headlights or parking lights are
on after the ignition is placed in the
OFF position, a chime will sound to
alert the driver when the driver's door
is opened.
FOG LIGHTSThe fog light switch is built
into the headlight switch.
To activate the fog lights,
turn the headlamp switch to
the park lamp or headlamp position.
Press the headlight switch once for
front fog lights, press the switch a
second time for front and rear fog
lights. Pressing the switch a third time
will deactivate the rear fog lights, and
a fourth time will deactivate the front
fog lights. Turning the headlight
switch off will also deactivate the fog
lights.
An indicator light in the instrument
cluster illuminates when the fog lights
are turned on.
NOTE:
The front fog lights will activate
automatically when turning on the
position lights or the low beam headlights if previously deacti-
vated by turning the headlight
switch off. The rear fog lights will
only turn on by operating the
switch as previously described.
MULTIFUNCTION LEVER
The multifunction lever controls the
operation of the turn signals, head-
light beam selection and passing
lights. The multifunction lever is lo-
cated on the left side of the steering
column.
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 defec-
tive outside light bulb. If an in-
dicator fails to light when the
lever is moved, it would suggest
that the indicator bulb is defec-
tive.
 A “Turn Signal On” message will appear in the EVIC (for
versions/markets, where pro-
vided) and a continuous chime
will sound if the vehicle is driven
more than 1.6 km with either
turn signal on.
LANE CHANGE ASSIST
Tap the lever up or down once, with-
out moving beyond the detent, and
the turn signal (right or left) will flash
three times then automatically turn
off.
HIGH/LOW BEAM SWITCH
Push the multifunction lever away
from you to switch the headlights to
high beam. Pull the multifunction le-
ver toward you to switch the head-
lights back to low beam.
Multifunction Lever

FLASH-TO-PASS
You can signal another vehicle with
your headlights by lightly pulling the
multifunction lever toward you. This
will turn on the high beams headlights
until the lever is released.
COURTESY LIGHTS
The courtesy lights can be turned on
by pressing the top corner of the lens.
To turn the lights off, press the lens a
second time.FRONT MAP/READING
LIGHTS
The front map/reading lights can be
turned on by pressing a switch on
either side of the console. These
switches are backlit for night time
visibility. To turn the lights off, press
the switch a second time. The lightswill also turn on when the UNLOCK
button on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) is pressed.
AMBIENT LIGHT
The overhead console is equipped
with an ambient light feature. This
light casts illumination for improved
visibility of the floor center console
and PRNDL area.
INTERIOR LIGHTS
The interior lights come on when a
door is opened.
To protect the battery, the interior
lights will turn off automatically
10 minutes after the ignition switch is
moved to the LOCK position. This
will occur if the interior lights were
switched on manually or are on be-
cause a door is open. This includes the
