ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle) in your
vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km), speeds
up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contributes to a
good break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental and should be
avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving type
lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions under which
vehicle operations will occur. For the recommended viscosity and quality grades, refer to
“Maintaining Your Vehicle.”
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of opera-
tion. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an indica-
tion of an engine problem or malfunction.
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result.
TURN SIGNAL/HIGH BEAM LEVER

HEADLIGHT SWITCH
Automatic Headlights/Parking
Lights/Headlights
The headlight switch is located on the instru-
ment panel to the left of the steering wheel.
• Rotate the headlight switch to the first de-tent
for parking lights and to the
second detent
for headlights.
• With the parking lights or low beam head- lights on, push in the center of the headlight
switch once for fog lights.
• Rotate the headlight switch to the third de- tent AUTO for automatic headlights.
When set to AUTO, the system automatically
turns the headlights on or off based on ambient
light levels.
Automatic High Beams
The Automatic High Beams system provides increased forward lighting at night by automating
high beam control through the use of a digital camera 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. This feature is programmable through the
Uconnect® system. Refer to “Uconnect® Settings” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in
the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
Instrument Panel Dimmer
• Rotate the right dimmer control to the extreme bottom position to fully dim the instrument panel lights and prevent the interior lights from illuminating when a door is opened.
• Rotate the right dimmer control up to increase the brightness of the instrument panel when the parking lights or headlights are on.
• Rotate the right dimmer control up to the next detent position to fully brighten the odometer and radio when the parking lights or headlights are on.
• Rotate the right dimmer control up to the last detent position to turn on the interior lighting.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a touchscreen, the dimming is programmable through the Uconnect® system. Refer to “Uconnect® Settings ” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel”
in the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
Ambient Light Dimmer
• Rotate the left dimmer control upward or downward to increase or decrease the brightness ofthe ambient light located in the overhead console, door handle lights, under I/P lights, door
map pocket lights, and cubby bin lights.
• Rotate the left dimmer control to the extreme bottom position to turn off the ambient lights.
