To enable the IntelliBeam system, press
bon the turn signal lever when it is
dark outside and the exterior lamp control is

Driving with IntelliBeam
The system only activates the high beams
when driving over 40 km/h (25 mph).
The blue high-beam on light appears on the
instrument cluster when the high beams
are on.
There is a sensor near the top center of the
windshield that automatically controls the
system. Keep this area of the windshield
clear of debris to allow for best system
performance.
The high-beam headlamps remain on, under
the automatic control, until one of the
following occurs:
.The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps.
.The system detects a preceding vehicle's
taillamps.
.The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
.The vehicle's speed drops below 20 km/h
(12 mph).
.The IntelliBeam system is disabled by the
button on the turn signal lever. If this
happens, press
bon the turn signal
lever when the exterior lamp control is in
the AUTO or
2position to reactivate the
IntelliBeam system. The instrument
cluster light will come on to indicate the
IntelliBeam system is reactivated.
The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot detect
another vehicle's lamps because of any of
the following:
.The other vehicle's lamps are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view,
or otherwise undetected.
.The other vehicle's lamps are covered
with dirt, snow, and/or road spray.
.The other vehicle's lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust, smoke,
fog, snow, road spray, mist, or other
airborne obstructions.
.The vehicle's windshield is dirty, cracked,
or obstructed by something that blocks
the view of the light sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded such that the front
end points upward, causing the light
sensor to aim high and not detect
headlamps and taillamps.
.Driving on winding or hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam headlamps may
need to be disabled if any of the above
conditions exist.
Adaptive Headlight System
If equipped, this Adaptive Headlight System
allows the high beam to function as the
main driving light at night. The sensor in
the windshield detects the lights of
oncoming or preceding vehicles.
The system turns on all the high-beam
headlamp LED segment when it is dark
enough and there is no other traffic present.
This light
bcomes on in the instrument
cluster when the Adaptive Headlight System
is enabled.

press
bon the turn signal lever when it
is dark outside and the exterior lamp control
is in AUTO or
2.
Driving with the Adaptive Headlight System
The system only activates the high beams
when driving over 40 km/h (25 mph).
There is a sensor near the top center of the
windshield that automatically detects the
lights of oncoming and preceding vehicles.
Keep this area of the windshield clear of
debris to allow for best system performance.
Individual segments of the headlamp high
beam are faded out according to the traffic
situation, preventing high beam light from glaring oncoming or preceding traffic. This
gives the best light distribution without
glaring other road users.
The Adaptive Headlight System remains on,
under the automatic control, until one of
the following situations occurs:
.Fog Lamps are turned On.
.The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
.The vehicle's speed drops below 20 km/h
(12 mph).
.The Adaptive Headlight System is disabled
by the button on the turn signal lever.
If this happens, press
bon the turn
signal lever when the exterior lamp
control is in the or AUTO or
2position
to reactivate the Adaptive Headlight
System. The instrument cluster light will
come on to indicate the Adaptive
Headlight System is reactivated.
The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot detect
another vehicle's lamps because of any of
the following:
.The other vehicle's lamps are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view,
or otherwise undetected.
.The other vehicle's lamps are covered
with dirt, snow, and/or road spray.
.The other vehicle's lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust, smoke,

airborne obstructions.
.The vehicle's windshield is dirty, cracked,
or obstructed by something that blocks
the view of the light sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded such that the front
end points upward, causing the light
sensor to aim high and not detect
headlamps and taillamps.
.The vehicle is being driven on winding or
hilly roads.
The Adaptive Headlight System may need to
be disabled if any of the above conditions
exist.
Town Light
Activated automatically in situations with
low exterior ambient light.
The light is wide and symmetrical. The
special beam pattern is designed to avoid
glare for other road users.
