Calibrating the compass
North America is divided into 15 magnetic zones and the compass will need to be calibrated if thevehicle is driven from one zone to another.
To calibrate the compass:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle (climatesystem, windshield wipers, audio system,etc.) and make sure that all doors areclosed.
• Calibration may not succeed or be incor-rect if the vehicle's electrical equipment isnot switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object, press
and hold the button on the underside of mir- ror for approx. 3 seconds until the number ofthe current magnetic zone is displayed.

by moving the lever forward. Return to low beams by moving the lever toward the steering wheel. The
symbol will illuminate in the instrument
panel when the high beams are on.
Active high beamsThe active high beam system uses a camera at the upper edge of the windshield to detect theheadlights of oncoming vehicles or the taillightsof a vehicle directly ahead. When this happens,the headlights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams. When the camera no longer detects the head- lights/taillights of other vehicles, your headlightswill switch back to high beams after several sec-onds.
OperationActivate/deactivate this function by turning the ring on the left-side steering wheel lever to
.
If the ring is not in this position, toggling between high and low beams must be done manually. If the ring is turned to another position while the high beams are on, the headlights will automati-cally switch to low beams. A white symbol (
) in the instrument panel
indicates that the function has been activated. When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the cam- era free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If a message is displayed in the instrument panel saying that active high beams are temporarilyunavailable, switching between high and lowbeams will have to be done manually. However, the light switch can remain in the
position.
The same applies if a message saying that the windshield sensors are blocked and the
symbol are displayed. The symbol will go
out if this happens. Automatic high beams may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When thesystem becomes active again or if the sensors inthe windshield are no longer obscured, the mes- sages will disappear and the
symbol will
illuminate.
WARNING
• Automatic high beams are a driving aid designed to help provide the best possi-ble headlight illumination in good drivingconditions.
• The driver is always responsible for man-ually toggling between high and lowbeams when this is required by traffic orweather conditions.
CAUTION
In the following situations, it may be neces- sary to switch between high and low beamsmanually:
• 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.
