There is a sensor near the top
center of the windshield that
automatically controls the system.
Keep this area of the windshield

enough that high-beam
headlamps are not required.
. The vehicle's speed drops below
20 km/h (12 mph).

changer or the flash-to-pass
feature. If this happens,
press
bon the turn signal
lever when the exterior
lamp control is in the

reactivate the IntelliBeam
system. The instrument cluster
light will come on to indicate
the IntelliBeam system is reactivated. See
Headlamp
High/Low-Beam Changer 0151

The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot
detect another vehicle's lamps
because of any of the following:
. The other vehicle's lamps are
missing, damaged, obstructed
from view, or otherwise
undetected.
. The other vehicle's lamps are
covered with dirt, snow, and/or
road spray.
. The other vehicle's lamps cannot
be detected due to dense
exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist, or other airborne
obstructions.
. The vehicle's windshield is dirty,
cracked, or obstructed by
something that blocks the view
of the light sensor.
. The vehicle is loaded such that
the front end points upward,
causing the light sensor to aim
high and not detect headlamps
and taillamps.
