DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING
Always remember to switch your
headlamps on in low light situations
or during inclement weather. The system
does not activate the tail lamps and may
not provide adequate lighting during these
conditions. Failure to activate your
headlamps under these conditions may
result in a collision. The system switches the signature lamps
on in day light conditions.
To switch the system on, switch the
ignition on, and switch the lighting control
to the off, autolamp, or parking lamp
position.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL
(IF EQUIPPED)
The system will automatically turn on your
high beams if it is dark enough and no
other traffic is present. When it detects the
headlights of an approaching vehicle, the
tail lamps of the preceding vehicle or
street lighting, the system will turn off the
high beams before they distract other
drivers. The low beams remain on.
Note: If it appears that automatic control
of the high beams is not functioning
properly, check the windshield in front of
the camera for a blockage. A clear view
of the road is required for proper system
operation. Have any windshield damage
in the area of the camera ’s field-of-view
repaired. Note:
If the system detects a blockage
such as bird droppings, bug splatter, snow
or ice, and you do not observe changes,
the system will go into low beam mode
until you clear the blockage. A message
may also appear in the instrument cluster
display noting the front camera is blocked.
Note: Typical road dust, dirt and water
spots will not affect the performance of
the automatic high beam system .
However, in cold or inclement weather
conditions, you will notice a decrease in
the availability of the high beam system,
especially at start up. If you want to
change the beam state independently of
the system, you may switch the high
beams on or off using the multifunction
switch. Automatic control will resume
when conditions are correct.
Note: Modification of the vehicle ride
height such as using much larger tires,
may degrade feature performance.
A camera sensor, centrally mounted
behind the windshield of your vehicle,
continuously monitors conditions to decide
when to switch the high beams off and on.
Once the system is active, the high beams
will switch on if:
• the ambient light level is low enough
• there is no traffic in front of the vehicle
• the vehicle speed is greater than
25 mph (40 km/h)
The high beams will switch off if:
• the system detects the headlamps of
an approaching vehicle or the tail
lamps of a preceding vehicle.
• vehicle speed falls below
16 mph
(25 km/h)

direction as the steering wheel. This
provides more visibility when driving
around curves.
