F LASH -T O -P ASS The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control system provides increased forward lighting at night by automating high beam control through the use of a camera mounted on the inside rearview mirror or a windshield mounted camera. These cameras detect vehicle specific light and automatically switch from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view. NOTE: For vehicles sold in Canada, the Daytime Running Lights will automatically deactivate when the front fog lights are turned on. You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by lightly pulling the multifunction lever toward you.
This will cause the high beam headlights to turn on, and remain on, until the lever is released. A UTOMATIC H EADLIGHTS — I F E QUIPPED If allowed by law in the country in which the vehicle was purchased, the Daytime Running Lights can be turned on and off using the Uconnect system Ъ page189. 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 Ъ page189, as well as turning the headlight switch to the AUTO position.
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). H IGH /L OW B EAM S WITCH This system automatically turns your headlights on or off based on ambient light levels. To turn the system on, rotate the headlight switch to the AUTO 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. When the system is on, the Headlight Delay feature is also on. This means the headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds after you place the ignition into the OFF position. To turn the automatic headlights off, turn the headlight switch out of the AUTO position. Push the multifunction lever toward the instrument panel to switch the headlights to high beam. Pulling the multifunction lever back toward the steering wheel will turn the low beams back on.
If the windshield or Automatic High Beam Head lamp Control mirror is replaced, the mirror must be re-aimed to ensure proper performance. See a local authorized dealer. NOTE: The engine must be running before the headlights will come on in the Automatic mode.
