For vehicles first sold in
Canada, the DRL can only be
turned off when the vehicle is
parked.
Automatic Headlamp
System
When the exterior lamp
control is set to Auto and it is
dark enough outside, the
headlamps come on
automatically.
There is a light sensor on top
of the instrument panel. Do
not cover the sensor.The system may also turn on
the headlamps when driving
through a parking garage or
tunnel.
If the vehicle is started in a
dark garage, the automatic
headlamp system comes on
immediately. If it is light
outside when the vehicle
leaves the garage, there is a
slight delay before the
automatic headlamp system
changes to the Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL). During
that delay, the instrument
cluster may not be as bright as
usual. Make sure the
instrument panel brightness
control is in the full bright
position. See Instrument Panel
Illumination Control
0146.
When it is bright enough
outside, the headlamps will
turn off or may change
to DRL.
The automatic headlamp
system turns off when the
exterior lamp control is set to
On or the vehicle is off.
Lamps On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are
activated in daylight with the
vehicle on and the exterior
lamp control is set to Auto, the
headlamps, parking lamps, and
other exterior lamps come on.
The transition time for the
lamps coming on varies based
on wiper speed. When the
wipers are not operating,
these lamps turn off. Set the
exterior lamp control to On or
Off to disable this feature.
Adaptive Forward
Lighting (AFL)
If equipped with the AFL
system, the high-beam
headlamps move horizontally
while turning the steering
wheel to provide greater road
illumination around curves.

144 Lighting
To activate AFL, set the
exterior lamp control to the
Auto position, and Adaptive
Headlight system is active.
See Exterior Lamp Controls
0139.
To adjust the AFL setting, go
to the infotainment home
screen and select Settings >
Vehicle > Lighting.
Moving the exterior lamp
controls out of the Auto
position will deactivate the
system. The high-beam
headlamps can move
horizontally when the vehicle
speed is greater than 3 km/h
(2 mph). Headlamps will not
move horizontally when the
electric drive unit is in
R (Reverse). If equipped, the AFL system
automatically modifies the
low-beam lighting patterns to
the situation to enable optimal
light performance for the
driver. Light distribution and
intensity of low-beam light are
controlled based on exterior
lighting conditions, vehicle
location, and driving situations.
Town Light
If equipped, the town light
activates automatically at a
speed up to 55 km/h (34 mph).
The light is wide and
symmetrical. The special beam
pattern is designed to prevent
glare for other road users.
Country Light
If equipped, the country light
activates automatically at a
speed above 55 km/h
(34 mph).
The illumination of the current
lane and the side of the road is
improved, reducing glare to
oncoming and preceding
vehicles.
Freeway/Motorway Light

Lighting 145
If equipped, when driving
faster than 90 km/h (55 mph)
on freeways, the low-beam
illumination is smaller and
extended.
Adverse Weather Light
If equipped, the adverse
weather light activates
automatically when driving in
adverse weather conditions
(heavy rain, snow, sleet,
freezing rain, etc.).
The illumination is shifted
more to the side of the road to
highlight road signs, and
reduces glare caused by
reflecting of wet roads.Maneuvering Light
If equipped, the maneuvering
light activates automatically at
speeds less than 7 km/h
(4 mph) when the vehicle is in
R (Reverse). The maneuvering
light illumination improves
parking and maneuvering
situations.
Headlamp Leveling
Control
Automatic Headlamp
Leveling Control
If equipped, the inclination of
the headlamps are
automatically adjusted based
on the vehicle load and driving
conditions (such as
acceleration, braking,
towing, etc.).

Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM) that
estimates the battery
temperature and state of
charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the 12–
volt battery
When the battery state of
charge is low, the voltage is
raised slightly to quickly
increase the charge. When thestate of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent over charging. As this
adjustment occurs, you may
see the voltage move up or
down on the voltmeter gauge
or voltage display on the
Driver Information (DIC),
if equipped. This is normal. If a
problem occurs, an alert will be
displayed.
If the electrical loads are very
high, the battery can be
discharged when the vehicle is
stationary. A high electrical
load occurs when several
features are on, such as:
headlamps, high beams, rear
window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed,
heated seats, motor cooling
fans, trailer loads, and loads
plugged into accessory power
outlets.
EPM works to prevent
excessive discharge of the
battery by balancing the
electrical system output and
the vehicle's electrical needs.

In some cases, it can
temporarily reduce the power
demands of some accessories.
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 battery voltage and
charging message displays.
It is recommended that the
driver reduce the electrical
loads as much as possible. See
Driver Information Center
(DIC)0132.
Battery Power
Protection
This feature helps prevent the
battery from being drained if
the interior courtesy lamps or
reading lamps are accidentally
left on. If any of these lamps
are left on, they automatically
turn off after 10 minutes when
the vehicle is turned off. The lamps will not come back on
again until one of the following
occurs:
.The vehicle is started.
.The doors are closed and
then re-opened.
Exterior Lighting
Battery Saver
The exterior lamps turn off
about 10 minutes after the
vehicle is turned off, if the
parking lamps or headlamps
have been manually left on.
This protects against draining
the battery. To restart the
10-minute timer, turn the
exterior lamp control to the
O
position and then back to the
;or2position.
To keep the lamps on for more
than 10 minutes, the vehicle
must be on.
