AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL (If Equipped)
The system will automatically turn on yourhigh beams if it is dark enough and no othertraffic is present. When it detects theheadlights of an approaching vehicle, thetail lamps of the preceding vehicle or streetlighting, the system will turn off the highbeams before they distract other drivers.The low beams remain on.
Note:If it appears that automatic controlof the high beams is not functioningproperly, check the windshield in front ofthe camera for a blockage. A clear view ofthe road is required for proper systemoperation. Have any windshield damage inthe area of the camera’s field-of-viewrepaired.
Note:If the system detects a blockage, forexample bird droppings, bug splatter, snowor ice, the system will go into low beammode until you clear the blockage. Amessage may also appear in the instrumentcluster display noting the front camera isblocked.

Lighting
Note:Typical road dust, dirt and waterspots will not affect the performance of theautomatic high beam system. However, incold or inclement weather conditions, youwill notice a decrease in the availability ofthe high beam system, especially at startup. If you want to change the beam stateindependently of the system, you mayswitch the high beams on or off using themultifunction switch. Automatic control willresume when conditions are correct.
Note:Modification of the vehicle ride heightsuch as using much larger tires, maydegrade feature performance.
A camera sensor, centrally mountedbehind the windshield of your vehicle,continuously monitors conditions to decidewhen to switch the high beams off and on.
Once the system is active, the high beamswill switch on if:
•the ambient light level is low enough
•there is no traffic in front of the vehicle
•the vehicle speed is greater thanapproximately 32 mph (52 km/h).
The high beams will switch off if:
•the system detects the headlamps ofan approaching vehicle or the taillamps of a preceding vehicle.
•vehicle speed falls belowapproximately 27 mph (44 km/h)
•the ambient light level is high enoughthat high beams are not required
•the system detects severe rain, snowor fog
•the camera is blocked.
Activating the System
Switch the system on using the informationdisplay. See Information Displays (page94). Switch the autolamps on. SeeAutolamps (page 74).
Manually Overriding the System
When the automatic control has activatedthe high beams, pushing or pulling the stalkwill provide a temporary override to lowbeam.
Use the information display menu topermanently deactivate the system, or turnthe lighting control switch from autolampsto headlamps.

A full fill represents the total amount ofenergy you can get from an external charge(plugging your vehicle in). When the fillreaches empty, your vehicle automaticallyenters Hybrid Mode and the large batterygauge will no longer be shown.
An optional small battery gauge is providedfor Hybrid vehicles and for Hybrid Modeonly in Energi vehicles. This can be enabledin the Settings menu under Battery Display.See General Information (page 94). Thefill level, or State of Charge, indicates theamount of energy stored in the highvoltage battery as a percent of total energycapacity. The level increases or decreasesas the battery charges and dischargesduring normal operation.
Regen Display
A circular arrow symbol displays whenenergy is being recaptured through theregenerative braking system. Regen Displaycan be disabled in the Settings menu. SeeGeneral Information (page 94).
Fuel Gauge:
Note:The fuel gauge may vary slightlywhen your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge willindicate approximately how much fuel isin the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to thefuel pump symbol indicates on which sideof your vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
The needle should move toward F whenyou refuel your vehicle. If the needle pointsto E after adding fuel, this indicates yourvehicle needs service soon.
After refueling some variability in needleposition is normal:
•It may take a short time for the needleto reach full after leaving the gasstation. This is normal and dependsupon the slope of pavement at the gasstation.
•The fuel amount dispensed into thetank is a little less or more than thegauge indicated. This is normal anddepends upon the slope of pavementat the gas station.
•If the gas station nozzle shuts offbefore the tank is full, try a differentgas pump nozzle.
•There is a small reserve left in the tankwhen the fuel gauge reaches empty.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers at 50 mi(80 km) to empty.
Variations:
Note:The low fuel reminder can appear atdifferent fuel gauge positions depending onfuel economy conditions. This variation isnormal.
