The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control system
provides increased forward lighting at night by automating

mounted on the inside rearview mirror or a windshield
mounted camera. These cameras detect vehicle specific light
and automatically switch from high beams to low beams
until the approaching vehicle is out of view.

Beams” within your Uconnect settings, as well as turning
the headlight switch to the AUTO position. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa -
tion.
• 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.
If the windshield or Automatic High Beam Headlamp
Control mirror is replaced, the mirror must be re-aimed to
ensure proper performance. See a local authorized dealer.
To Activate
1. The Automatic High Beams are enabled through the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi -
media” for further information.
2. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO headlight posi -
tion. 3. Push the multifunction lever away from you (toward
front of vehicle) to engage the high beam mode.
NOTE:
The Automatic High Beams will not activate until the vehicle
is at or above 12 mph (20 km/h).
To Deactivate
1. Pull the multifunction lever toward you (or rearward in vehicle) to manually deactivate the system (normal oper -
ation of low beams).
2. Push back on the multifunction lever to reactivate the system.
The Automatic High Beams can also be deactivated through
the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi -
media” for further information.
Flash-To-Pass

lightly pulling the multifunction lever toward you. This will
cause the high beam headlights to turn on, and remain on,
until the lever is released.

sound when the driver’s door is opened.

knob a second time will turn the front fog lights off.Front Fog Light Switch If the fog lights are off, one of the fog lights will illuminate
depending on the direction in which the vehicle is turning.

each side of the instrument cluster display will 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.
Lane Change Assist — If Equipped

moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal (right or left)
will flash three times then automatically turn off.
