HEADLIGHTS ON WITH
WIPERS (Available With
Automatic Headlights Only)
When this feature is active, the head-
lights will turn on approximately 10
seconds after the wipers are turned on
if the headlight switch is placed in the
AUTO position. In addition, the head-
lights will turn off when the wipers are
turned off if they were turned on by
this feature.
NOTE: The Headlights On with
Wipers feature can be turned on or
off using the Uconnect® System,
refer to “Uconnect® Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
HEADLIGHT TIME DELAY
This feature provides the safety of
headlight illumination for up to 90
seconds (programmable) when leav-
ing 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 off
within 45 seconds of placing the
ignition in the OFF position to
activate this feature.
The headlight delay time is pro- grammable using the
Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The Automatic High Beam system
provides increased forward lighting at night by automating high beam con-
trol through the use of a digital cam-
era 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 sys-
tem can be turned on or off using
the Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Un-
derstanding 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.

To protect the battery, the interior
lights will turn off automatically 10
minutes after the ignition switch is
moved to the LOCK position. This
will occur if the interior lights were
switched on manually or are on be-
cause a door is open. This includes the
glove box light, but not the trunk
light. To restore interior light opera-
tion, either turn the ignition switch
ON or cycle the light switch.
Dimmer Controls
The dimmer control is part of the
headlight switch and is located on the
left side of the instrument panel.
With the parking lights or headlights
on, rotating the left dimmer controlupward will increase the brightness of
the instrument panel lights and
lighted cupholders.
Ambient Light Control
Rotate the right dimmer control up-
ward or downward to increase or de-
crease the brightness of the door
handle lights and ambient light lo-
cated in the overhead console.
Dome Light Position
Rotate the left dimmer control com-
pletely upward to the second detent to
turn on the interior lights. The inte-
rior lights will remain on when the
dimmer control is in this position.
Interior Light Defeat (OFF)
Rotate the left dimmer control to the
extreme bottom OFF position. The
interior lights will remain off when
the doors are open.
Parade Mode (Daytime Brightness
Feature)
Rotate the left dimmer control up-
ward to the first detent. This feature
brightens all text displays such as the
odometer, EVIC (for versions/
markets, where provided), and radio
when the parking lights or headlights
are on.

or ACC position. The multifunction
lever is located on the left side of the
steering column.
Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to the first detent, past the inter-
mittent settings for low-speed wiper
operation, or to the second detent past
the intermittent settings for high-
speed wiper operation.
CAUTION!
Turn the windshield wipers offwhen driving through an auto-
matic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if
the wiper control is left in any
position other than off.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
In cold weather, always turn offthe wiper switch and allow the
wipers to return to the “Park”
position before turning off the en-
gine. If the wiper switch is left on
and the wipers freeze to the wind-
shield, damage to the wiper mo-
tor may occur when the vehicle is
restarted.
Always remove any buildup of snow that prevents the wind-
shield wiper blades from return-
ing to the off position. If the wind-
shield wiper control is turned off
and the blades cannot return to
the off position, damage to the
wiper motor may occur.
INTERMITTENT WIPER
SYSTEM
Use the intermittent wiper when
weather conditions make a single
wiping cycle with a variable pause
between cycles desirable. Rotate the
end of the multifunction lever to the
first detent position, and then turn the
end of the lever to select the desired delay interval. There are four delay
settings, which allow you to regulate
the wipe interval from a minimum of
one cycle every second to a maximum
of approximately 18 seconds between
cycles. The delay intervals will double
in duration when the vehicle speed is
16 km/h or less.
MIST FEATURE
Rotate the end of the lever downward
to the Mist position to activate a single
wipe cycle to clear off road mist or
spray from a passing vehicle. The
wipers will continue to operate until
you release the multifunction lever.
NOTE: The mist feature does not
activate the washer pump; there-
fore, no washer fluid will be
sprayed on the windshield. The
wash function must be used in or-
der to spray the windshield with
washer fluid.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
To use the washer, push the multi-
function lever inward (toward the
steering column) and hold it for as
long as washer spray is desired.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Control

If you activate the washer while the
windshield wiper control is in the de-
lay range, the wipers will operate for
two wipe cycles after releasing the
lever and then resume the intermit-
tent interval previously selected.
If you activate the washer while the
windshield wiper is turned off, the
wipers will operate for three wipe
cycles and then turn off.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through
the windshield could lead to a col-
lision. You might not see other ve-
hicles or other obstacles. To avoid
sudden icing of the windshield dur-
ing freezing weather, warm the
windshield with the defroster be-
fore and during windshield washer
use.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This feature senses moisture on the
windshield and automatically acti-
vates the wipers for the driver. Thefeature is especially useful for road
splash or over spray from the wind-
shield washers of the vehicle ahead.
Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to one of four settings to activate
this feature.
The sensitivity of the system can be
adjusted with the multifunction lever.
Wiper delay position 1 is the least
sensitive, and wiper delay position 4 is
the most sensitive. Setting 3 should be
used for normal rain conditions. Set-
tings 1 and 2 can be used if the driver
desires less wiper sensitivity. Settings
4 can be used if the driver desires
more sensitivity. The rain sense wip-
ers will automatically change between
an intermittent wipe, slow wipe and a
fast wipe depending on the amount of
moisture that is sensed on the wind-
shield. Place the wiper switch in the
OFF position when not using the sys-
tem.
The Rain Sensing feature can be
turned on and off using the
Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the wiper
speed is in the low or high posi-
tion.
The Rain Sensing feature may not function properly when ice
or dried salt water is present on
the windshield.
The use of products containing wax or silicone may reduce rain
sensor performance.
The Rain Sensing system has protec-
tive features for the wiper blades and
arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
— The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the ignition is
placed in the RUN position, the ve-
hicle is stationary and the outside
temperature is below 0°C, unless
the wiper control on the multifunc-
tion lever is moved, the vehicle
speed becomes greater than 0 km/h
or the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
119

Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain
Sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is placed in the
RUN position, the transmission
shift lever is in the NEUTRAL po-
sition and the vehicle speed is less
than 8 km/h, unless the wiper con-
trol on the multifunction lever is
moved or the shift lever is moved
out of the NEUTRAL position.
HEADLIGHT WASHERS
The multifunction lever operates the
headlight washers when the ignition
switch is in the ON position and the
headlights are turned on. The multi-
function lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
To use the headlight washers, push
the multifunction lever inward (to-
ward the steering column) and release
it. The headlight washers will spray a
timed high-pressure spray of washer
fluid onto each headlight lens. In ad-
dition, the windshield washers will
spray the windshield and the wind-
shield wipers will cycle. NOTE: After turning the ignition
switch and headlights ON, the
headlight washers will operate on
the first spray of the windshield
washer and then every eleventh
spray after that.
