KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ — PASSIVE
E
NTRY (IF EQUIPPED)
The Passive Entry system is a feature that allows
you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) and
tailgate without having to push the key fob lock or
unlock buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on/off
through Uconnect Settings Ú page 215.
The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle
Passive Entry system if it is located next to a
mobile phone, laptop, or other electronic device;
these devices may interfere with the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent the Passive Entry
system from locking/unlocking the vehicle.
Passive Entry Unlock initiates Headlight Illumi
-
nation On Approach (low beams, license plate
lamp, parking lights) for whichever duration is
set within the Uconnect Settings between 0, 30,
60 or 90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock also
initiates two flashes of the turn signal lights.
If wearing gloves, if it has been raining/snowing,
or there is salt/dirt covering the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response time.
The doors may unlock when water is sprayed on
the Passive Entry door handles if the key fob is
located outside of the vehicle within 5 ft (1.5 m)
of the handle.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and
no door is opened within 60 seconds, the
vehicle will relock and, if equipped, will arm the
Vehicle Security system.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the door handle, grab the handle to
unlock the vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door
handle will unlock the driver door automatically.
Grabbing the passenger door handle will unlock all
doors and the tailgate automatically.WARNING!
For personal security reasons and safety in a
collision, lock the vehicle doors when you
drive, as well as when you park and exit the
vehicle.
When exiting the vehicle, always place the
ignition in the OFF position and remove the
key from the vehicle. Unsupervised use of
vehicle equipment may cause severe personal
injuries and death.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended
is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle
or in a location accessible to children. A child
could operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle.
WARNING!

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.

corresponding to the specific seat will turn on in
the upper right portion of the instrument cluster
display, momentarily replacing the configurable

pass" scenario.
ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated
Onboard Diagnostic system called OBD II. This
system monitors the performance of the
emissions, engine, and transmission control
systems. When these systems are operating
properly, your vehicle will provide excellent
performance and fuel economy, as well as engine
emissions well within current government
regulations.
