To turn the automatic headlights off, turn the
headlight switch out of the (AUTO) position.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your head-
lights by lightly pulling the multifunction lever
toward you. This will cause the high beam
headlights to turn on, and remain on, until the
lever is released.
Automatic High Beam Headlights — If
Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlights system
provides increased forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control through the use
of a camera mounted on the windshield. This
camera detects vehicle specific light and auto -
matically switches from high beams to low
beams until the approaching vehicle is out of
view.
This function is enabled with the radio system,
and can only be activated with the light switch
turned to (auto).
If the high beam headlights are on, the blue
icon/warning light will illuminate in the
instrument panel.
When the speed is higher than 25 mph
(40 km/h) and the function is active, the lights
will turn off if the multifunction lever is pushed
again. When the speed is lower than 15 mph
(25 km/h) and the function is active, the func
-
tion switches the high beam headlights off.
If the high beam headlights are operated
quickly again (pushing the multifunction lever
towards the instrument panel), the warning
light/icon will illuminate in the instrument
panel, and the high beam headlights will turn
on constantly until the speed exceeds 25 mph
(40 km/h).
When the speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) is
exceeded again, the automatic functioning is
reactivated.
If the multifunction lever is pushed again with
the Automatic High Beam Headlights acti -
vated, the Automatic High Beam Headlights
function deactivates.
To deactivate the automatic headlight function,
rotate the headlight switch to the position.
NOTE:
If the system recognizes heavy traffic areas,
the automatic functions remain disabled
independently of the vehicle’s speed.
The Automatic High Beam functionality may
also be influenced by:
• Reflections on road signs
• Dim headlights from oncoming traffic
• Poor weather conditions •
Presence of dirt or other obstructions on
the sensor
• Damage to the windshield
Parking Lights
To turn on the parking lights and instrument
panel lights, rotate the headlight switch clock -
wise to the position. All of the parking lights
will turn on for eight minutes, and opening the
door activates an audible warning.
To leave only the lights on one side (right/left)
illuminated, move the multifunction lever
(located on the left side of the steering wheel)
to the side that you want to remain on. With
the parking lights on, the warning light on
the instrument panel will illuminate.
To turn off the parking lights, rotate the head -
light switch back to the O (off) position.
Headlight Off Delay
To assist when exiting the vehicle, the “Head -
light Off Delay” feature will leave the head -
lights on for up to 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. Head -
light delay can be canceled by either turning
on the headlights or side lights, or by placing
the ignition in the ON position.

checked by the traffic police using specific
devices. Comply with the laws and regulations
of the country where you are driving.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can
continue traveling at moderate speed but
without demanding excessive effort from the
engine or high speed. Prolonged use of the
vehicle with the indicator light on constantly
may cause damage. Contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) System
This indicator light informs the driver
that the frontal collision alarm func -
tion is not enabled.
Drive carefully and contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Fuel Reserve/Limited Range
The indicator light (or the symbol in
the display) illuminates when about
2.4 gallons (9 liters) of fuel is left in
the tank.
Green Indicator Lights
Automatic High Beam Indicator Light — If
Equipped

headlights are activated.
Left Turn Signal Indicator Light
The instrument cluster directional
arrow will flash independently for the
left turn signal as selected, as well
as the exterior turn signal lamp(s)
(front and rear) as selected when the multi -
function lever is moved down (left). This direc -
tional arrow will flash in conjunction with the
right directional arrow when the hazard
warning light button is pushed.
Park/Headlight On Indicator Light
This indicator will illuminate when
the park lights or headlights are
turned on.
Headlight Off Delay
This function allows the headlights to remain
on for 30, 60 or 90 seconds after the ignition
was placed in the OFF position.
Right Turn Signal Indicator Light
The instrument cluster directional
arrow will flash independently for the
right turn signal as selected, as well
as the exterior turn signal lamp(s)
(front and rear) as selected when the multi -
function lever is moved up (right). This direc -
tional arrow will flash in conjunction with the
left directional arrow when the hazard warning
light button is pushed.
Blue Indicator Lights
High Beam Indicator Light — If Equipped
This indicator shows that the high
beam headlights are on. Push the
multifunction control lever away
from you to switch the headlights to
high beam. Push the lever a second time to
switch the headlights back to low beam. Pull
the lever toward you for a temporary high
beam on, “flash to pass” scenario.
CAUTION!
If, turning the ignition device to ON, the
warning light does not turn on or if it
turns on steadily or is flashing when
traveling (on some versions together with
the message on the display), contact an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING!
If the warning light (or the icon on the
display) flashes while driving, contact an
authorized dealer.
