AUTOLAMPS (If Equipped)
WARNING:
The system does not
relieve you of your responsibility to drive
with due care and attention. You may need
to override the system if it does not turn
the headlamps on in low visibility
conditions, for example daytime fog. When the lighting control is in the
autolamps position, the headlamps turn
on in low light situations, or when the
wipers turn on.
The headlamps remain on for a period of
time after you switch the ignition off. Use
the information display controls to adjust
the period of time that the headlamps
remain on.
Note:
If you switch the autolamps on, you
cannot switch the high beams on until the
system turns the low beams on.
Windshield Wiper Activated
Headlamps
When you switch the autolamps on, the
headlamps turn on within 10 seconds of
switching the wipers on. They turn off
approximately 60 seconds after you switch
the windshield wipers off.
The headlamps do not turn on with the
wipers:
• During a single wipe.
• When using the windshield washers.
• If the wipers are in intermittent mode.
Note: If you switch the autolamps and the
autowipers on, the headlamps turn on when
the windshield wipers continuously operate.

HEADLAMP EXIT DELAY
After you switch the ignition off, you can
switch the headlamps on by pulling the
direction indicator lever toward you. You
will hear a short tone. The headlamps will
switch off automatically after three
minutes with any door open or 30 seconds
after the last door has been closed. You
can cancel this feature by pulling the
direction indicator toward you again or
switching the ignition on.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL
WARNING: The system does not
relieve you of your responsibility to drive
with due care and attention. You may need
to override the system if it does not turn
the high beams on or off.
The system turns on high beams if it is dark
enough and no other traffic is present. If it
detects an approaching vehicle ’s
headlamps or tail lamps, or street lighting
ahead, the system turns off high beams
before they can distract other road users.
Low beams remain on.
Note: The system may not operate properly
if the sensor is blocked. Keep the windshield
free from obstruction or damage.
Note: The system may not operate properly
in cold or inclement conditions. You can
switch on the high beams by overriding the
system.
Note: If the system detects a blockage, for
example bird droppings, bug splatter, snow
or ice, the system goes into low beam mode
until you clear the blockage. A message may
appear in the information display if the
camera is blocked. Note:
Using much larger tires or equipping
vehicle accessories such as snowplows can
modify your vehicle's ride height and
degrade automatic high beam control
performance.
A camera sensor, centrally mounted
behind the windshield of your vehicle,
continuously monitors conditions to turn
the high beams on and off.
Once the system is active, the high beams
turn on if:
• The ambient light level is low enough.
• There is no traffic in front of your
vehicle.
• The vehicle speed is greater than
approximately
32 mph (51 km/h).
The system turns the high beams off if:
• The ambient light level is high enough
that high beams are not required.
• The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps or tail lamps.
• The vehicle speed falls below
approximately
27 mph (44 km/h).
• The system detects severe rain, snow
or fog.
• The camera is blocked.
Switching the System On and Off
Switch the system on using the information
display. See Information Displays (page

AUTO-START-STOP
WARNING: Always switch the
ignition off and fully apply the parking
brake before carrying out any maintenance
or leaving your vehicle. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury or death if the engine restarts.
Principle of Operation
The system is designed to help reduce fuel
consumption and CO 2 emissions by
stopping the engine when it is idling, for
example at traffic lights. Your vehicle has
an enhanced starter motor that is designed
for an increased number of engine starts.
The system does not stop the engine under
certain conditions, for example:
• If you have opened the driver door.
• If you have unfastened the driver
seatbelt.
• If your vehicle is at high altitude.
• If you have switched the heated
windshield on.
• If you have shifted into manual (M).
• If your vehicle is on a steep grade.
• If the engine is warming up.
• If the outside temperature is too low
or too high.
• If the battery charge is low or the
battery temperature is outside the
optimal operating range.
• To maintain the interior climate or
reduce fogging.
• If you have turned the steering more
than 270 degrees. The system restarts the engine under
certain conditions, for example:
•
If you have opened the driver door.
• If you have unfastened the driver
seatbelt.
• If you switch the heated windshield on.
• If you switch maximum defrost on.
• If you turn the steering wheel.
• If your vehicle starts to roll downhill in
neutral.
• To maintain adequate brake
assistance.
• To maintain the interior climate or
reduce fogging.
Note: The blower motor speed could
change when the system restarts the engine.
Using Auto-Start-Stop WARNING: Apply the parking brake
and shift into park (P) before leaving your
vehicle.
Stopping the Engine
Stop your vehicle and keep your foot on
the brake pedal and the transmission in
drive (D).
Note: The engine stops if you shift into park
(P) or neutral (N) regardless of whether you
have your foot on the brake pedal or not.
Note: Power assist steering turns off when
the engine is off.
Restarting the Engine
• Release the brake pedal.
• Press the accelerator pedal.
• Shift into drive (D), reverse (R) or
manual (M).

USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL
WARNING: Always pay close
attention to changing road conditions
when using adaptive cruise control. The
system does not replace attentive driving.
Failing to pay attention to the road may
result in a crash, serious injury or death. WARNING:
You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death. WARNING:
Adaptive cruise control
may not detect stationary or slow moving
vehicles below
6 mph (10 km/h). WARNING:
Do not use adaptive
cruise control on winding roads, in heavy
traffic or when the road surface is slippery.
This could result in loss of vehicle control,
serious injury or death. WARNING:
Do not use the system
when towing a trailer that has aftermarket
electronic trailer brake controls. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death. WARNING:
Adaptive cruise control
is not a crash warning or avoidance system. WARNING:
Adaptive cruise control
does not detect pedestrians or objects in
the road. WARNING:
Adaptive cruise control
does not detect oncoming vehicles in the
same lane. WARNING:
Do not use the system
in poor visibility, for example fog, heavy
rain, spray or snow. WARNING:
Do not use tire sizes
other than those recommended because
this can affect the normal operation of the
system. Failure to do so may result in a loss
of vehicle control, which could result in
serious injury.
The system helps you to maintain a gap
from the vehicle in front of you. The
system adjusts your vehicle speed to
maintain the set gap between you and the
vehicle in front of you in the same lane.
The system applies the brakes to slow your
vehicle to maintain a safe gap distance
from the vehicle in front.
The system uses a radar sensor which
projects a beam directly in front of your
vehicle.
The adaptive cruise controls are on the
steering wheel.
Switching Adaptive Cruise Control
On Press and release the switch.
The information display shows the grey
indicator light. The system is now in
standby.
