PREMIUM SECURITY
SYSTEM (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Premium Security system moni-
tors the doors, hood latch, and trunk
for unauthorized entry and the igni-
tion switch for unauthorized opera-
tion. The system also includes a dual
function intrusion sensor and vehicle
tilt sensor. The intrusion sensor moni-
tors the vehicle interior for motion.
The vehicle tilt sensor monitors the
vehicle for any tilting actions (tow
away, tire removal, ferry transport,
etc).
In the event that something triggers
the security system, the headlights
will turn on, the alarm will sound and
the turn signal and side repeater lights
will flash for 29 seconds, and then the
lights will continue to flash for an
additional 5 seconds. The system will
repeat this sequence for up to 8 secu-
rity violations in any mode (door ajar,
motion, hood ajar, etc.) before having
to rearm the system. At the end of any
particular trigger event, the lights will
continue to flash for 26 seconds.

The headlight switch is located
on the left side of the instru-
ment panel. This switch con-
trols the operation of the headlights,
parking lights, instrument panel
lights, instrument panel light dim-
ming, interior lights and fog lights.
NOTE: In certain European
countries, the parking light feature
will only operate with the ignition
OFF, or with either the fog lamps or
headlights also ON. Regardless of
ignition switch position, the park-
ing lights will remain ON as long as
the switch is in this first detent. Rotate the headlight switch clockwise
to the first detent for parking light
and instrument panel light operation.
Rotate the headlight switch to the sec-
ond detent for headlight, parking
light and instrument panel light op-
eration.

headlights on or off according to am-
bient light levels. To turn the system
on, rotate the headlight switch coun-
terclockwise to the AUTO position.
When the system is on, the headlight
time delay feature is also on. This
means the headlights will stay on for
up to 90 seconds after you place the
ignition into the OFF position. To turn
the automatic system off, move the
headlight switch out of the AUTO po-
sition.

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

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.

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.

If the windshield or Automatic High
Beam mirror is replaced, the Auto-
matic High Beam mirror must be re-
aimed to ensure proper performance.
See your local authorized dealer.

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

“Uconnect® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.

tions.
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® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”

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 in-
dicator fails to light when the
lever is moved, it would suggest
that the indicator bulb is defec-
tive.
A “Turn Signal On” message will appear in the EVIC (for
versions/markets, where pro-
vided) and a continuous chime
will sound if the vehicle is driven
more than 1.6 km with either
turn signal on.
