breakage than glass lights. Plastic is not as
scratch resistant as glass and therefore dif-
ferent lens cleaning procedures must be fol-
lowed.
To minimize the possibility of scratching the
lenses and reducing light output, avoid wip-
ing with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash
with a mild soap solution followed by rinsing.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with illuminated
approach lights under the outside mirrors,
they can be turned off through the instrument
cluster or the Uconnect radio. For further
information, refer to the Owner’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/en-us/care/owners-manual.html
(U.S. Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) for further information.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive cleaning components,
solvents, steel wool or other abrasive ma-
terials to clean the lenses.
Headlights
To turn on the headlights, rotate the head-
light switch clockwise to the headlight posi-
tion. When the headlight switch is on, the
parking lights, taillights, license plate light
and instrument panel lights are also turned
on. To turn off the headlights, rotate the
headlight switch back to the O (off) position.
Multifunction Lever
The multifunction lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever toward the in-
strument panel to switch the headlights to
high beam. Pulling the multifunction 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 automati-
cally switches from high beams to low beams
until the approaching vehicle is out of view.

Uconnect settings, as well as turning the
headlight switch to the AUTO position. Re-
fer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”

(U.S. Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) 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 func-
tion 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 “Multimedia” in

information.

3. Push the multifunction lever away from you (toward front of vehicle) to engage the
high beam mode.
NOTE:
This system will not activate until the vehicle

To Deactivate
1. Pull the multifunction lever toward you (or rearward in vehicle) to manually deacti-
vate the system (normal operation of low
beams).
2. Push back on the multifunction lever to reactivate the system.
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 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. The headlight time delay
can be programmed 0/30/60/90 seconds.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in the Owner’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/en-us/care/owners-manual.html
