The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is disabled
when the Vehicle Security system is active.
NOTE:The universal garage door opener only operates
when the engine is running for security reasons
associated with removable tops and doors.
TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
If you are having trouble programming
HomeLink®, here are some of the most common
solutions:
Replace the battery in the garage door opener
hand-held transmitter.

Push the LEARN button on the garage door
opener to complete the training for a rolling code.

Did you unplug the device for programming and
remember to plug it back in? If you have any problems, or require assistance,
please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or, on the
Internet at HomeLink.com for information or

EXTERIOR LIGHTS
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
The headlight switch is located on the left side of
the instrument panel. This switch controls the
operation of the headlights, parking lights,
automatic headlights (if equipped), instrument
panel lights, instrument panel light dimming,
interior lights, and fog lights (if equipped).

Headlight Switch
WARNING!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a
dangerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the
garage while programming the transceiver.
Exhaust gas can cause serious injury or death.
Your motorized door or gate will open and
close while you are programming the universal
transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if
people, pets or other objects are in the path of
the door or gate. Only use this transceiver with
a garage door opener that has a “stop and
reverse” feature as required by Federal safety
standards. This includes most garage door
opener models manufactured after 1982. Do
not use a garage door opener without these
safety features.

Headlight Switch (Vehicles Sold In Canada)

NOTE:Vehicles sold in Canada are equipped with a head -
light switch with an AUTO and ON detent but
without an OFF detent. Headlights will be deacti -
vated when the headlight switch is placed in the
parking lights position. However, the Daytime
Running Lights (DRLs) will be activated along with
the front and rear marker lights. The DRLs may be
deactivated when the parking brake is engaged.
Rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the first
detent for parking lights and instrument panel light
operation. Rotate the headlight switch to the second detent for headlights, parking lights, and
instrument panel light operation.
NOTE:For vehicles sold in Canada, rotate the headlight
switch clockwise from the parking lights and
instrument panel light position to the first detent to
turn on headlights, parking lights, and instrument
panel light. Rotate the headlight switch to the
second detent for the AUTO position.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRLS) —
I
F EQUIPPED
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) are in a
dedicated position below the headlight assembly.
DRLs are active when the low beams are not on
while the vehicle’s transmission is in any position
(automatic transmission), or when the vehicle
begins to move (manual transmission).
NOTE:
For vehicles sold in Canada, the DRLs will auto -
matically deactivate when the front fog lights
are turned on.
On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights
may deactivate, or reduce intensity, on one side
of the vehicle (when a turn signal is activated on
that side), or on both sides of the vehicle (when
the hazard warning lights are activated).
HIGH/LOW BEAM SWITCH
The High/Low Beam switch is located within the
multifunction lever on the left side of the steering
wheel. High beam headlights can be used for
improved visibility in low lit areas when there is no
oncoming traffic. Otherwise, it is recommended to
use the low beam headlights to reduce glare to
other vehicles.
With the headlight switch activated, push the
multifunction lever toward the instrument panel to
switch the headlights to high beams. The lever will
return to the centered position. To return the
headlights to low beam, pull the lever toward the
steering wheel, or push the lever toward the
instrument panel.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at night
by automatically controlling the high beams
through the use of a camera mounted on the
vehicle’s header. 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 by selecting “ON” under
“Auto Dim High Beams” within your Uconnect
Settings Ú page 215, as well as turning the
headlight switch to the AUTO position and
placing the multifunction lever in the high beam
position.
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
The Flash-To-Pass feature will illuminate the high
beam headlights temporarily to signal another
vehicle of a passing occurrence. Pull and hold the
Multifunction Lever to activate the Flash-To-Pass
feature. When the lever is released, the
Flash-To-Pass feature will deactivate.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED

The Automatic Headlight System will turn the
headlights on or off according to ambient light
levels. To turn the system on, rotate the headlight
switch clockwise to the last detent for automatic
headlight operation. When the system is on, the
headlight time delay feature is also on. This means
the headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds
(programmable through the Uconnect Settings

Ú
page 215) after you place the ignition into the
OFF position. To turn the automatic system off,
move the headlight switch out of the AUTO position.

NOTE:The engine must be running before the headlights
will come on in the automatic mode.
LIGHTS-ON REMINDER

If the headlights or parking lights are left on after
the ignition is placed in the OFF position, the vehicle
will chime when the driver’s door is opened.

FRONT FOG LIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The Front Fog Lights are located on the front of the
vehicle below the headlights. When activated,
these lights add illumination directed at the driving
surface to aid in poor visibility conditions.
To activate the Front Fog Lights, turn on the
parking lights or low beam headlights and push the
fog light switch. Pushing the fog light switch a
second time will turn the front fog lights off.
