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 situations 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.
.The vehicle is being driven on winding or
hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam headlamps may
need to be disabled if any of the above
conditions exist.

Maps
The Navigation application requires a map
database to run. It is stored on an SD card
that is connected to the infotainment
system. If the map database is not available,
a missing SD card error message will be
displayed.
SD Card Error Messages
The SD card only works for one unique
vehicle. The SD card must pass
authentication verification to be used for
that specific vehicle. If the SD card has a
switch that can be set to read-only mode,
ensure that it is in the upward position and
not in read-only.
Potential error scenarios and messages
include:
.The SD card has initialized for the first
time:“Once initialized, this SD card can
only be used for navigation in this
vehicle.”
.The SD card is not working properly: “SD
card is not functioning properly.
(Error Code).”
See your dealer if this message appears.
.The SD card is not paired with the
existing system: “This SD card is not valid
in this vehicle for navigation. See Owner’s
Manual for more detail or visit your
dealer. (Error Code).”
.The SD card has been removed from the
slot: “SD card has been removed.
(Error Code).”
Make sure the SD card is in the slot. If it
was removed and inserted and you still
receive an error code, see your dealer.
Touch Confirm to resume after the
initialization error message. For the other
messages, touch OK to return to the
Home Page.

Connected Navigation
Connected Navigation is a subscription
service that enables certain capabilities
within the navigation system, such as
Traffic, Smart Search/Routing, and PredictiveNavigation capabilities. The system will
show an alert when the subscription is
expiring and will ask to renew the plan.
Global Positioning System (GPS)
If equipped, the position of the vehicle is
determined by using satellite signals, various
vehicle signals, and map data.
At times, other interference such as the
satellite condition, road configuration,
condition of the vehicle, and/or other
circumstances can affect the navigation
system's ability to determine the accurate
position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position of the
vehicle using signals sent by GPS satellites.
When the vehicle is not receiving signals
from the satellites, a symbol appears in the
status bar.
This system might not be available or
interference can occur if any of the
following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall buildings,
trees, large trucks, or a tunnel.
.Satellites are being repaired or improved.
