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.

NOTE:
The range depends on several factors: driving style, type of
route (freeway, residential, mountain roads, etc.), conditions
of use of the vehicle (load, tire pressure, etc.). Trip planning
must take into account the above notes.
Travel Distance
This value shows the distance covered since the last reset.
Average Fuel Consumption
This value shows the approximate average consumption
since the last reset.
Current Fuel Consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is constantly
updated. The message “----” will appear on the display if the
vehicle is parked with the engine running.
Average Speed
This value shows the vehicle's average speed as a function of
the overall time elapsed since the last reset.
Travel Time
This value shows the time elapsed since the last reset.WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The warning/indicator lights will illuminate in the instrument
panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precau-
tionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/
or alternative to the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases.
Always refer to the information in this chapter in the event of a
failure indication. All active telltales will display first if appli -
cable. The system check menu may appear different based upon
equipment options and current vehicle status. Some telltales are
optional and may not appear.
Red Warning Lights
Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb
check when the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or
MAR/ON/RUN position. If the light is either not on
during startup, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the
system inspected at an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
This light will illuminate with a single chime when a fault with
the Air Bag Warning Light has been detected, it will stay on until
the fault is cleared. If the light comes on intermittently or
remains on while driving, have an authorized dealer service the
vehicle immediately.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Warning Light — If
Equipped
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Indicator Light in
the instrument cluster will come on when the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN position, and
when ESC is activated. It should go out with the engine running. If
the “ESC Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine
running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this
light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has
been driven several miles (kilometers) at speeds greater than
30 mph (48 km/h), see your authorized dealer as soon as possible
to have the problem diagnosed and corrected.
• The “ESC OFF Indicator Light” and the “ESC Indicator Light” come on momentarily each time the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN position.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or MAR/ON/ RUN, the ESC system will be on, even if it was turned off
previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when
ESC becomes inactive.
• This light will come on when the vehicle is in an ESC event. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF Warning Light —
If Equipped
This warning light indicates the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) is off.
Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN,
the ESC system will be on, even if it was turned off previously.
Green Indicator Lights
Turn Signal Indicator Lights When the left or right turn signal is activated, the
turn signal indicator will flash independently and
the corresponding exterior turn signal lamps will
flash. Turn signals can be activated when the multifunction
lever is moved down (left) or up (right).
NOTE:
• A continuous chime will sound if the vehicle is driven more than 1 mile (1.6 km) with either turn signal on.
• Check for an inoperative outside light bulb if either indicator flashes at a rapid rate.

SAFETY 105
Base SystemThis is the TPMS warning indicator located in the
instrument cluster.
The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem,
transmit tire pressure readings to the Receiver Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check the tire pressure
in all of the tires on your vehicle regularly and to maintain
the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
• Receiver Module
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors
• Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light will
illuminate in the instrument cluster, an audible chime will be
activated, and the “Check tire pressure” text message will
display when one or more of the four active road tire pres -
sures are low. Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressure of each tire on your
vehicle, and inflate each tire to the vehicle’s recommended
cold placard pressure value. The system will automatically
update and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Light will extin
-
guish once the updated tire pressures have been received.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this information.
Check TPMS Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and remain on solid when a system
fault is detected, an audible chime will be activated and a
proper text message will be displayed. If the ignition key is
cycled, this sequence will repeat providing the system fault
still exists. The Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light will
turn off when the fault condition no longer exists. A system
fault can occur with any of the following scenarios:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to facil -
ities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPM
sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals.
3. Snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
