High beam flashPull the lever toward the steering wheel to position 1. The high beams come on until thelever is released.
Active high beams – AHB*AHB is a feature that uses a camera at theupper edge of the windshield to detect theheadlights of oncoming vehicles or the tail-lights of a vehicle directly ahead. When thishappens, the headlights will automaticallyswitch from high beams to low beams. Whenthe camera no longer detects the headlights/taillights of other vehicles, your headlights willswitch back to high beams after several sec-onds. To activate AHB:
• Turn the headlight control to the
position.
The feature will begin functioning if the engine has been running for at least 20 seconds andthe vehicle's speed is at least 12 mph(20 km/h).
Headlight switch in the AUTO position
Switch AHB on or off by pulling the left steer- ing wheel lever rearward (toward the steeringwheel) as far as possible and releasing it. IfAHB is switched off while the high beams areon, the headlights will change to low beams.

Models with an analog instrument panel When AHB is activated, the
symbol
will illuminate in the instrument panel. The high beam indicator (
) in the instrument
panel will also illuminate when the high beams are on. Models with a digital instrument panel When AHB is activated,
will illuminate
as a white symbol in the instrument panel.
When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the camera free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attachanything on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If Active high beam Temporary
unavailable Switch manually is displayed in
the instrument panel, switching between high and low beams will have to be done man-ually. However, the light switch can remain inthe AUTO position. The same applies if
Windscreen Sensors blocked is displayed
and the
symbol is displayed. The
symbol will go out when these mes-
sages are displayed.
AHB may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When AHB becomes activeagain or if the sensors in the windshield areno longer obscured, the messages will disap- pear and the
symbol will illuminate.
CAUTION
In the following situations, it may be nec- essary to switch between high and lowbeams manually:
• In heavy fog or rain
• In blowing snow or slush
• In bright moonlight
• In freezing rain
• In areas with dim street lighting
• When oncoming vehicles have dim front lighting
• If there are pedestrians on or near theroad
• If there are reflective objects, such assigns, near the road
• When oncoming vehicles' lights areobscured by e.g., fences, bushes, etc.
• When there are vehicles on connectingroads
• At the top of hills or in dips in the road
• In sharp curves

The low beams will be switched offapprox. 20 seconds after the vehicle leavesthe tunnel. The rain sensor does not have to be activated for tunnel detection to function.

NOTE
The rear fog lights are considerably brighter than the normal taillights andshould be used only when conditions suchas fog, rain, snow, smoke or dust reducevisibility for other vehicles to less than500 ft. (150 meters).
NOTE
Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterior lights suchas headlights, fog lights, or taillights. Thisis normal and the lights are designed towithstand moisture. Normally, condensa-tion will dissipate after the lights have beenon for a short time.
