Headlights On with Wipers
When this feature is active, the headlights will turn on
approximately 10 seconds after the wipers are turned on

ers,” under “Personal Settings (Customer Programmable

ter” in Section 4 of this manual.

ing at night by automating high beam control through

or camera lens will cause the system to function improp-
erly.

for 90 seconds (programmable) when leaving your ve-
hicle in an unlighted area.

turn off in the normal manner.
NOTE:The lights must be turned off within 45 seconds
