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 windshield.
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 through Uconnect
Settings Ú page 123.
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 obstruc -
tions on the windshield or camera lens will
cause the system to function improperly.
FLASH-TO-PASS
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights
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 HEADLIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
This system automatically turns the headlights on
or off according to ambient light levels. To turn the
system on, rotate the headlight switch clockwise to
the last detent (AUTO position) for automatic
headlight operation. To turn the automatic system
off, move the headlight switch out of the AUTO
position.
NOTE:The ignition must be in the ON/RUN or START
position before the headlights will come on in the
automatic mode.
Light Sensor
The light sensor is equipped with an infrared LED,
located on the windshield. It detects changes in
light intensity outside the vehicle, based on the
sensitivity of light set by using the menu on the
display or on the Uconnect system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the amount of
external light required for controlling the lighting.
PARKING LIGHTS
Rotate the headlight switch to the first position to
turn on the parking lights. The parking light
indicator in the cluster will illuminate.
HEADLIGHT TIME DELAY
This feature provides the safety of headlight
illumination for up to 90 seconds when leaving
your vehicle in an unlit area.
The time delay of the headlights is programmable
between 0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds within
Uconnect Settings Ú page 123.
Headlight Delay Activation
To activate the delay feature, place the ignition in
the OFF position while the headlights are still on.
Then, turn off the headlights within two minutes.
The delay interval begins when the headlight
switch is turned off.
Headlight Delay Deactivation
The feature is disabled by turning on the
headlights, the parking lights or by placing the
ignition in the ON/RUN position.
If you shut off the lights before the ignition is
turned on, they will turn off in the normal manner.
NOTE:The lights must be turned off within two minutes of
placing the ignition in the OFF position to activate
this feature.
