Rotate the headlight switch to the third detent for head-
light, parking light and instrument panel operation.
Daytime Running Lights — If Equipped
The headlights or LED light bars on your vehicle will
illuminate when the vehicle is started. This provides a
constant lights on condition until the ignition is turned
OFF. If the parking brake is applied, the Daytime Running
Lights (DRL) will turn off. Also, if a turn signal is activated,
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signal is no longer active, the DRL lamp will illuminate.
High/Low Beam Switch
When the headlights are turned on, pushing the multifunc-
tion lever toward the instrument panel will switch from
low beams to high beams. Pulling back to the neutral
position returns the headlights to the low beam operation.
Automatic High Beam — If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam system provides increased
forward lighting at night by automating high beam control
through the use of a digital camera mounted on the
windshield. This camera detects vehicle specific light and
automatically switches from high beams to low beams
until the approaching vehicle is out of view.NOTE:
Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and tail-
lights 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 function improperly.
To Activate
1. Select “Automatic High Beams — ON” through the Uconnect system. Refer to Uconnect Settings” in “Mul-
timedia” for further information.
2. Rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the AUTO position.
3. Push the multifunction lever away from you to switch the headlights to the high beam position. Refer to
“Multifunction Lever” for further information.

— Seat Belt Reminder Warning Light
This warning light indicates when the driver or passenger
seat belt is unbuckled. When the ignition is first placed in
the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN position and if the
driver ’s seat belt is unbuckled, a chime will sound and the
light will turn on. When driving, if the driver or front
passenger seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Re-
minder Light will flash or remain on continuously and a
chime will sound.
Refer to “Occupant Restraint Systems” in “Safety” for
further information.
— Brake Warning Light
This warning light monitors various brake functions, in-
cluding brake fluid level and parking brake application. If
the brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking
brake is applied, that the brake fluid level is low, or that
there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reser-
voir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been
disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the
master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic system malfunction or that a problem with the
Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock BrakeSystem (ABS) / Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.
In this case, the light will remain on until the condition has
been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake
booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake,
and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity
in the event of a failure to a portion of the hydraulic
system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is
indicated by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on
when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has
dropped below a specified level.
The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
NOTE:
The light may flash momentarily during sharp
cornering maneuvers, which change fluid level conditions.
The vehicle should have service performed, and the brake
fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is necessary.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is
dangerous. Part of the brake system may have failed. It
will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a
collision. Have the vehicle checked immediately.

AutoPark
AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist in placing the
vehicle in PARK should the situations on the following
pages occur. It is a back up system and should not be relied
upon as the primary method by which the driver shifts the
vehicle into PARK.
The conditions under which AutoPark will engage are
outlined on the following pages.
WARNING!
•Driver inattention could lead to failure to place the
vehicle in PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK
that your vehicle is in PARK by verifying that a solid
(not blinking) “P” is indicated in the instrument
cluster display and near the gear selector. If the P
indicator is blinking, your vehicle is not in PARK. As
an added precaution, always apply the parking brake
when exiting the vehicle.
• AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is not de-
signed to replace the need to shift your vehicle into
PARK. It is a back up system and should not be
