Seats  are  a  part  of  the  Occupant  Restraint
System of the vehicle.
 WARNING!
It  is  dangerous  to  ride  in  a  cargo  area,

controls  the  operation  of  the  headlights,
parking  lights,  automatic  headlights  (if
equipped),  instrument  panel  lights,  instru-
ment  panel  light  operation,  interior  lights,
fog  lights  (if  equipped),  and  headlight

dedicated  position  below  the  headlight
assembly.  DRLs  are  active  when  the  Low Beams  are  not  and  when  the  vehicle  is
shifted into any position other than PARK.
NOTE:
The  Daytime  Running  Lights,  on  the  same

Automatic High Beam — 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 vehicle’s header. This camera detects
vehicle  specific  light  and  automatically
switches from high beams to low beams until
the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE:
The  Automatic  High  Beam  Headlamp
Control 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  and
placing  the  multifunction  lever  in  the  high
beam position. Refer to “Uconnect Settings”
in  “Multimedia”  in  the  Owner’s  Manual  for
further information.
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  wind-
shield  or  camera  lens  will  cause  the
system to function improperly.
Flash-To-Pass  
You  can  signal  another  vehicle  with  your
headlights  by  lightly  pulling  the  multifunc -
tion  lever  toward  you.  This  will  cause  the
high beam headlights to turn on, and remain
on, until the lever is released.

lights  on  or  off  according  to  ambient  light
levels.  To  turn  the  system  on,  rotate  the
headlight switch clockwise to the last detent
for automatic headlight operation. 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.  To
turn  the  automatic  system  off,  move  the
headlight switch out of the AUTO position.
