68 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) — If Equipped
The headlights on your vehicle will illuminate when the
engine is started and the transmission is in any gear except
PARK. This provides a constant "lights on" condition until
the ignition is turned OFF. The lights illuminate at less than
half of normal intensity. If the parking brake is applied, the
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) will turn off. Also, if a turn
signal is activated, the DRL lamp on the same side of the
vehicle may turn off for the duration of the turn signal acti-
vation. Once the turn signal is no longer active, the DRL
lamp will illuminate.
NOTE:
If allowed by law in the country in which the vehicle was
purchased, the Daytime Running Lights can be turned on
and off using the Uconnect System, refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever toward the instrument panel to
switch the headlights to high beam. Pulling the multifunc -
tion lever back toward the steering wheel will turn the low
beams back on, or shut the high beams off.
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control — 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 by selecting “ON” under “Auto Dim High
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.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 69
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 theUconnect 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
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by
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.
Automatic Headlights — If Equipped
This system automatically turns your headlights on or off
based on ambient light levels. To turn the system on, turn the
headlight switch to the extreme clockwise position aligning
the indicator with the AUTO on the headlight switch. When
the system is on, the Headlight Time Delay feature is also on.
This means your headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds
after you turn the ignition switch OFF. To turn the Auto -
matic System off, turn the headlight switch counterclockwise
to the O (off) position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will come
on in the Automatic mode.

ground near the engine compartment and fuel tank before
resetting the system and starting the engine. If there are no
fuel leaks or damage to the vehicle electrical devices (e.g.
headlights) after an accident, reset the system by following
the procedure described below. If you have any doubt,

Maintaining Your Air Bag System
WARNING!
• Modifications to any part of the air bag system could cause it to fail when you need it. You could be injured
if the air bag system is not there to protect you. Do not
modify the components or wiring, including adding
any kind of badges or stickers to the steering wheel hub
trim cover or the upper passenger side of the instru -
ment panel. Do not modify the front bumper, vehicle
body structure, or add aftermarket side steps or
running boards.
• It is dangerous to try to repair any part of the air bag system yourself. Be sure to tell anyone who works on
your vehicle that it has an air bag system.

CAUTION!
• When installing the power distribution center cover, it is important to ensure the cover is properly positioned
and fully latched. Failure to do so may allow water to
get into the power distribution center and possibly
result in an electrical system failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to useonly a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The use
of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result
in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly
rated fuse continues to blow, it indicates a problem in
the circuit that must be corrected. CAUTION!
