WARNING!(Continued)
If required, mounting posts must be
properly installed, if not equipped
from the factory.Failure to properly follow floor mat
installation or mounting can cause
interference with the brake pedal
and accelerator pedal operation
causing loss of control of the vehicle.Periodic Safety Checks You
Should Make Outside The
Vehicle
TiresExamine tires for excessive tread wear
and uneven wear patterns. Check for
stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread or sidewall. Inspect
the tread for cuts and cracks. Inspect
sidewalls for cuts, cracks and bulges.
Check the wheel nuts for tightness.
Check the tires (including spare) for
proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation
of brake lights and exterior lights
while you work the controls. Check
turn signal and high beam indicator
lights on the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under vehicle after over-
night parking for fuel, engine coolant,
oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gaso-
line fumes are detected or if fuel,
power steering fluid (2500/3500), or
brake fluid leaks are suspected, the
cause should be located and corrected
immediately.

HEADLIGHT TIME DELAYThis feature provides the safety of
headlight illumination for up to 90 sec-
onds (programmable) when leaving
your vehicle in an unlit area.To activate the delay feature, place
the ignition in the OFF position while
the headlights are still on. Then, turn
off the headlights within 45 seconds.
The delay interval begins when the
headlight switch is turned off.If you turn the headlights or parking
lights on, or place the ignition in ACC
or RUN, the system will cancel the
delay.If you turn the headlights off before
the ignition, they will turn off in the
normal manner.
NOTE:
The lights must be turned offwithin 45 seconds of placing the
ignition in the OFF position to
activate this feature.
The headlight delay time is pro-
grammable using the Uconnect
Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.SMARTBEAM™
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The SmartBeam™ system provides
increased forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control
through the use of a digital camera
mounted on the inside rearview mir-
ror. This camera detects vehicle spe-
cific light and automatically switches
from high beams to low beams until
the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE:
SmartBeam™ can be turned on or
off using the Uconnect Touch™
System, refer to “Uconnect
Touch™ Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
Broken, muddy, or obstructed
headlights and taillights of ve-
hicles in the field of view will
cause the high beams to remain
on longer and not automatically
switch to low beams until you
are closer to the approaching ve-
hicle. Also, dirt, film, and other
obstructions on the windshield
or camera lens will cause the
system to function improperly.
If the windshield or SmartBeam™
mirror is replaced, the SmartBeam™
mirror must be re-aimed to ensure
proper performance. See your local
authorized dealer.
To Activate
1. Turn the headlight switch to the
AUTO headlight position.
2. Push the multifunction lever away
from you (toward front of vehicle) to
engage the high beam mode.
NOTE: This system will not acti-
vate until the vehicle is at or above
32 km/h.

To Deactivate
1.
Pull the multifunction lever toward
you (or rearward in car) to manually
deactivate the system (normal opera-
tion of low beams).
2. Push back on the multifunction
lever once again to reactivate the sys-
tem.
DAYTIME RUNNING
LIGHTS (for versions/
markets, where provided)
DRLs come ON when the vehicle is
running and shifted out of park, the
headlights are OFF and the parking
brake is OFF. The headlight switch
must be used for normal nighttime
driving. If a turn signal is activated,
the DRL lamp on the same side of the
vehicle will turn off for the duration of
the turn signal activation. Once the
turn signal is no longer active, the
DRL lamp will illuminate.
NOTE: Depending on your area's
regulations, DRLs may be able to
be turned on and off. The DRLs
can be turned on and off using the Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
ADAPTIVE BI-XENON
HIGH INTENSITY
DISCHARGE HEADLIGHTS
This system automatically swivels the
headlight beam pattern horizontally
to provide increased illumination in
the direction the vehicle is steering.
NOTE:
Each time the Adaptive Headlight
System is turned on, the head-
lights will initialize by perform-
ing a brief sequence of rotations. The Adaptive Headlight System
is active only when the vehicle is
moving forward.
The Adaptive Headlight System
can be turned On or Off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information. LIGHTS-ON REMINDER
If the headlights or parking lights are
on after the ignition is placed in the
OFF position, a chime will sound to
alert the driver when the driver's door
is opened.
FOG LIGHTS
The fog light switch is built
into the headlight switch. To
activate the fog lights, turn
the headlamp switch to the
park lamp or headlamp position. Press
the headlight switch once for front fog
lights, press the switch a second time
for front and rear fog lights. Pressing
the switch a third time will deactivate
the rear fog lights, and a fourth time
will deactivate the front fog lights.
Turning the headlight switch off will
also deactivate the fog lights.
An indicator light in the instrument
cluster illuminates when the fog lights
are turned on.
NOTE: The front fog lights will
activate automatically when turn-
ing on the position lights or the low
111
beam headlights if previously de-
activated by turning the headlight
switch off. The rear fog lights will
only turn on by operating the
switch as previously described.
MULTIFUNCTION LEVERThe multifunction lever controls the
operation of the turn signals, headlight
beam selection and passing lights. The
multifunction lever is located on the
left side of the steering column.TURN SIGNALS
Move the multifunction lever up or
down and the arrows on each side of
the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation of the front and rear
turn signal lights.NOTE:
If either light remains on and
does not flash, or there is a very
fast flash rate, check for a defec-
tive outside light bulb. If an indi-
cator fails to light when the lever
is moved, it would suggest that
the indicator bulb is defective.A “Turn Signal On” message will
appear in the EVIC (for versions/
markets, where provided) and a
continuous chime will sound if the
vehicle is driven more than 1.6 km
with either turn signal on.LANE CHANGE ASSISTTap the lever up or down once, without
moving beyond the detent, and the
turn signal (right or left) will flash
three times then automatically turn off.HIGH/LOW BEAM SWITCH

from you to switch the headlights to
high beam. Pull the multifunction le-
ver toward you to switch the head-
lights back to low beam.

your headlights by lightly pulling the
multifunction lever toward you. This
will turn on the high beams headlights
until the lever is released.
