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 Once the turn signal is no longer active, the DRL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. 2

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
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.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The warning/indicator lights will illuminate in the instru -
ment panel together with a dedicated message and/or
acoustic signal when applicable. These indications are indic -
ative and precautionary and as such must not be considered
as exhaustive. Always refer to the information in this chapter
in the event of a failure indication. All active telltales will

SAFETY 181
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need to be
increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa) above the recom -
mended cold placard pressure in order to turn the Tire Pres -
sure Monitoring Telltale Light off.
Service TPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid. The system fault will also sound a chime. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a "SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message for a minimum of five seconds and
then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value to indi -
cate which sensor is not being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence will repeat,
providing the system fault still exists. If the system fault no
longer exists, the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
will no longer flash, and the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message will no longer display, and a pressure value will
display in place of the dashes. A system fault can occur due
to any of the following:
• Signal interference due to electronic devices or driving
next to facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the
TPM sensors. • Installing aftermarket window tinting that contains mate -
rials that may block radio wave signals.
• Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel
housings.
• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors.
A system fault may occur due to an incorrect TPM sensor
location condition. When a system fault occurs due to an
incorrect TPM sensor location, the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid. The system fault will also sound a chime. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a “Tire Pressure
Temporarily Unavailable” message in place of the tire pres -
sure display screen. If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the system fault still exists. If
the system fault no longer exists, the “Tire Pressure Moni -
toring Telltale Light” will no longer flash and the tire pres -
sure display screen will be displayed showing the tire
pressure values the correct locations. 4
