DRIVER ADJUSTABLE PEDALS — IF
EQUIPPED
The adjustable pedals system is designed to
allow a greater range of driver comfort for
steering wheel tilt and seat position. This
feature allows the brake and accelerator pedals
to move toward or away from the driver to
provide improved position with the steering
wheel.
The adjustable pedal switch is located to the left
side of the steering column.

Adjustable Pedals Switch
The pedals can be adjusted with the ignition
OFF.
The pedals
cannot be adjusted when the
vehicle is in REVERSE or when the Speed
Control System is on. The following messages
will appear on vehicles equipped with an
instrument cluster display if the pedals are
attempted to be adjusted when the system is
locked out: “Adjustable Pedal Disabled — Cruise
Control Engaged” or “Adjustable Pedal Disabled
— Vehicle In Reverse”.
NOTE:
Always adjust the pedals to a position that
allows full pedal travel.
Further small adjustments may be necessary
to find the best possible seat/pedal position.
For vehicles equipped with Driver Memory
Settings, you can use your remote keyless
entry key fob or the memory switch on the
driver’s door trim panel to return the adjust -
able pedals to pre-programmed positions.
Refer to “Driver Memory Settings — If
Equipped” in this chapter for further informa -
tion.
MIRRORS
INSIDE DAY/NIGHT MIRROR — IF
E
QUIPPED
The mirror head can be adjusted up, down, left,
and right for various drivers. The mirror should
be adjusted to center on the view through the
rear window.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the pedals while the vehicle is
moving. You could lose control and have an
accident. Always adjust the pedals while the
vehicle is parked.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under the adjustable
pedals or impede its ability to move, as it may
cause damage to the pedal controls. Pedal
travel may become limited if movement is
stopped by an obstruction in the adjustable
pedal's path.

Rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the first
detent for parking light and instrument panel
light operation. Rotate the headlight switch to the
second detent for headlight, parking light, and
instrument panel light operation.

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRLS) — IF
E
QUIPPED
The headlights on your vehicle will illuminate
when the engine is started and the
transmission is in any gear except PARK. This
provides a constant "lights on" condition until
the ignition is placed in the OFF position. The
lights illuminate at less than half of normal
intensity. If the parking brake is applied, the
Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) will turn off.
Also, if a turn signal is activated, the DRL lamp
on the same side of the vehicle may turn off for
the duration of the turn signal activation. Once
the turn signal is no longer active, the DRL lamp
will illuminate.
NOTE:
If allowed by law in the country in which the
vehicle was purchased, the Daytime Running
Lights can be turned on and off using the Ucon -
nect system, refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information.
HIGH/LOW BEAM SWITCH
Push the multifunction lever toward the
instrument panel to switch the headlights to
high beam. Pulling the multifunction lever back
toward the steering wheel will turn the low
beams back on, or shut the high beams off.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — 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 or forward facing camera. 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 Dim High Beams” within your
Uconnect settings, as well as turning the
headlight switch to the AUTO position. Refer
to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” 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 windshield or
camera lens will cause the system to func -
tion improperly.

To opt out of the Advanced Auto High Beam
Sensitivity Control (default) and enter
Reduced High Beam Sensitivity Control (not
recommended), on vehicles equipped with
mirror controlled automatic high beams and
without the forward facing camera, toggle the
high beam lever six full on/off cycles within
10 seconds of placing the ignition in the ON
position. The system will return to the default
setting when the ignition is OFF.
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.
