High Beams
With the low beams activated, pull the multifunction lever
towards the steering wheel to turn on the high beams. A high
beam symbol will illuminate in the cluster to indicate the
high beams are on. Pull the multifunction lever a second time
to switch the headlights back to low beam.
NOTE:
If the vehicle’s ignition is turned off, both high and low beam
headlights will also turn off.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by
partially pulling the multifunction lever toward the steering
wheel. This will cause the high beam headlights to turn on
until the lever is released.
Parking Lights
These lights can only be turned on with ignition key in the
STOP (OFF/LOCK) position or removed, by moving the end
of the multifunction lever to O (Off) position and then to the
headlight position.
The warning light telltale in the instrument panel comes on.
The lights stay on until the next ignition cycle is performed.
Follow Me Home/Headlight Delay
When this feature is selected, the driver can choose to have
the headlights remain on for a preset period of time after the
engine is turned off.
Activation
Remove the key or turn the ignition to the STOP (OFF/
LOCK) position, and pull the multifunction lever toward the
steering wheel within two minutes. Each time the lever is
pulled, the activation of the lights will be extended by 30
seconds. The activation of the lights can be extended to a
maximum of 210 seconds.

each side of the instrument cluster flash to show proper oper -
ation of the front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash, or there is a very
fast flash rate, check for a defective outside light bulb. If an
indicator fails to light when the lever is moved, it would
suggest that the indicator bulb is defective.
Lane Change Assist

detent, and the turn signal (right or left) will flash five times
then automatically turn off.
