back that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat
heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that has
been overheated could cause serious
burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.

halves, with the front half being soft foam and
trim, while the back half is decorative plastic.
Do not place anything on the seat or seat -
back that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat

headlights to turn on, and remain on, until the
lever is released.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS
This system automatically turns the headlights
on or off according to ambient light levels. To
turn the system on, rotate the headlight switch
counterclockwise to the AUTO position. When
the system is on, the headlight time delay
feature is also on. This means the headlights
will stay on for up to 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 “Multimedia”
for further information.
To turn the automatic system off, move the
headlight switch out of the AUTO position. NOTE:
The engine must be running before the head
-
lights will come on in the automatic mode.

To turn on the parking lights and instrument
panel lights, rotate the headlight switch
clockwise. To turn off the parking lights, rotate
the headlight switch back to the O (off) position.

engine is running, they will automatically turn
on when the wiper system is on. This feature is
programmable through the Uconnect system.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”
for further information.
NOTE:
When your headlights come on during the
daytime, the vehicle will monitor outside bright -
ness and decide if the instrument panel needs
to be dimmed or not. Refer to “Interior Lights” in
this chapter for further information.
HEADLIGHT DELAY
To aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with
a headlight delay that will leave the headlights
on for approximately 90 seconds. This delay is
initiated when the ignition is placed in the OFF
position while the headlight switch is on, and
then the headlight switch is cycled off.
Headlight delay can be canceled by either
turning the headlight switch on then off, or by
placing the ignition in the ON position.
NOTE:
The headlight delay time is programmable
through the Uconnect System. Refer to “Ucon -
nect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further infor -
