MIRRORS
Power Folding Outside Mirrors For
Standard And Trailer Tow — If
Equipped
If equipped with power folding mirrors, they
can be electrically folded rearward and un-
folded into the drive position.
The switch for the power folding mirrors is
located between the power mirror switches L
(left) and R (right). Push the switch once and
the mirrors will fold in, push the switch a
second time and the mirrors will return to the
normal driving position.
If the mirror is manually folded after electri-
cally cycled, a potential extra button push is
required to get the mirrors back to the homeposition. If the mirror does not electrically
fold, check for ice or dirt build up at the pivot
area which can cause excessive drag.
Resetting The Power Folding Outside Mirrors
You may need to reset the power folding
mirrors if the following occurs:
• The mirrors are accidentally blocked while
folding.
• The mirrors are accidentally manually folded/unfolded. • The mirrors come out of the unfolded posi-
tion.
• The mirrors shake and vibrate at normal driving speeds.
To Reset The Power Folding Mirrors:
1. Using the power folding mirror switch, move the mirror to its full forward
position.
2. Using the power folding mirror switch, move the mirror to the full retract position
(this may require multiple button
pushes). This resets them to their normal
position.
NOTE:
• The power fold mirrors are designed to operate while the vehicle is stationary or
traveling at moderate speeds. If you at-
tempt to power fold the mirrors at high
speeds they may not fully open or close. You
should slow down to a moderate speed and
complete the operation.
• When pushing the power fold button 10 or more times in one minute the system shuts
down for one minute to protect the motors
from over heating.

Automatic High Beam Headlamp
Control — If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
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 automati-
cally switches from high beams to low beams
until the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE:
• The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Con-trol can be turned on or off by selecting
“ON” under “Auto High Beam” within your
Uconnect settings, as well as turning the
headlight switch to the AUTO position. Re-
fer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”
in the Owner’s Manual for further informa-
tion.
• Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and taillights of vehicles in the field of view
will cause headlights to remain on longer
(closer to the vehicle). Also, dirt, film, and
other obstructions on the windshield or
camera lens will cause the system to func-
tion improperly. If the windshield or Automatic High Beam
Headlamp Control mirror is replaced, the
mirror must be re-aimed to ensure proper
performance. See a local authorized dealer.

90 seconds after you place the ignition into
the OFF position. The headlight time delay
can be programmed 0/30/60/90 seconds.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in the Owner’s Manual for further infor-
mation.
To turn the automatic system off, move the
headlight switch out of the AUTO position.

cluster display will flash to show proper op-
eration of the front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:

defective outside light bulb. If an indicator
fails to light when the lever is moved, it would
suggest that the indicator bulb is defective.
