light turns off.
If the light stays on and the
engine does not start, there
could be a problem with the
theft-deterrent system. See
Immobilizer Operation027.
High-Beam On Light
This light comes on when the
high-beam headlamps are in
use. See Headlamp High/
Low-Beam Changer 0147.
IntelliBeam Light
This light comes on when the
IntelliBeam system,
if equipped, is enabled. See
Exterior Lamp Controls 0145.
Lamps On Reminder
This light comes on when the
exterior lamps are in use,
except when only the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) are
active. See Exterior Lamp

146 Lighting
AUTO :Automatically turns
the exterior lamps on and off,
depending on outside lighting.
;: Turns on the parking
lamps including all lamps,
except the headlamps.
2: Turns on the headlamps
together with the parking
lamps and instrument panel
lights.
IntelliBeam System
If equipped, this system turns
the vehicle's high-beam
headlamps on and off
according to surrounding
traffic conditions.
The system turns the
high-beam headlamps on when
it is dark enough and there is
no other traffic present.
This light
bcomes on in the
instrument cluster when the
IntelliBeam system is enabled. Turning On and Enabling
IntelliBeam
To enable the IntelliBeam
system, press
bon the turn
signal lever when it is dark
outside and the exterior lamp
control is in AUTO or
2.
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 or2position 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.
Exterior Lamps Off
Reminder
A warning chime sounds if the
driver door is opened while
the ignition is off and the
exterior lamps are on.
Headlamp High/
Low-Beam Changer
3: Push the turn signal lever
away from you and release, to
turn the high beams on. To
return to low beams, push the
lever again or pull it toward
you and release.
This indicator light turns on in
the instrument cluster when
the high-beam headlamps
are on.
Flash-to-Pass
To flash the high beams, pull
the turn signal lever toward
you, and release.
Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL)
DRL can make it easier for
others to see the front of your
vehicle during the day. Fully
functional DRL are required on
all vehicles first sold in
Canada.

152 Lighting
The exterior and interior lamps
remain on for a set amount of
time, then automatically
turn off.
The interior lights turn on
when the vehicle is turned off.
The exterior lamps turn off
immediately by turning the
exterior lamp control off.
This feature can be changed.
On the infotainment home
screen, select the Settings
icon
TVehicleTExit Lighting.
Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM), which
estimates the battery's
temperature and state of
charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the
battery.
When the battery's state of
charge is low, the voltage is
raised slightly to quickly bring
the charge back up. When thestate of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent overcharging. If the
vehicle has a voltmeter gauge
or a voltage display on the
Driver Information Center
(DIC), you may see the voltage
move up or down. This is
normal. If there is a problem,
an alert will be displayed.
The battery can be discharged
at idle if the electrical loads
are very high. This is true for
all vehicles. This is because
the generator (alternator) may
not be spinning fast enough at
idle to produce all the power
that is needed for very high
electrical loads.
A high electrical load occurs
when several of the following
are on, such as: headlamps,
high beams, fog lamps, rear
window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed,
heated seats, engine cooling
fans, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent
excessive discharge of the
battery. It does this by
balancing the generator's
output and the vehicle's
electrical needs. It can
increase engine idle speed to
generate more power,
whenever needed. It can
temporarily reduce the power
demands of some accessories.
Normally, these actions occur
in steps or levels, without
being noticeable. In rare cases
at the highest levels of
corrective action, this action
may be noticeable to the
driver. If so, a DIC message
might be displayed. If a battery
message is displayed, it is
recommended that the driver
reduce the electrical loads as
much as possible. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level)
0129 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0132.

Headlamp Aiming
Front Headlamp
Aiming
Headlamp aim has been preset
and should need no further
adjustment.
If the vehicle is damaged in a
crash, the headlamp aim may
be affected. If adjustment to
the headlamps is necessary,
see your dealer.
Bulb Replacement
For the proper type of
replacement bulbs, or any bulb
changing procedure not listed
in this section, contact your
dealer.
Caution
Do not replace incandescent
bulbs with aftermarket LED
replacement bulbs. This can
cause damage to the vehicle
electrical system.
Halogen Bulbs
{Warning
Halogen bulbs have
pressurized gas inside and
can burst if you drop or
scratch the bulb. You or
others could be injured. Be
sure to read and follow the
instructions on the bulb
package.
High Intensity
Discharge (HID)
Lighting
{Warning
The High Intensity Discharge
(HID) lighting system
operates at a very high
voltage. If you try to service
any of the system
components, you could be
seriously injured. Have your
dealer or a qualified
technician service them.
After an HID headlamp bulb
has been replaced, the beam
might be a slightly different
shade than it was originally.
This is normal.
LED Lighting
This vehicle has several LED
lamps. For replacement of any
LED lighting assembly, contact
your dealer.
