Automatic Headlights — If Equipped

This system automatically turns the headlights on or off

according to ambient light levels. To turn the system on,

rotate the headlight switch counterclockwise to the

AUTO position. 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 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.

Headlights On Automatically With Wipers

If your vehicle is equipped with Automatic Headlights, it

also has this customer-programmable feature. When

your headlights are in the automatic mode and the

engine is running, they will automatically turn on when

the wiper system is on. This feature is programmable

through the Uconnect® system. Refer to “Uconnect®

Settings/Customer Programmable Features” in “Under-

standing Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
NOTE:

When your headlights come on during the day-

time, the vehicle will monitor outside brightness and

decide if the instrument panel needs to be dimmed or

not. Refer to “Lights” in this section for further informa-

tion.

Automatic High Beam — If Equipped

The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control system

provides increased forward lighting at night by automat-

ing high beam control through the use of a digital camera

mounted on the inside rearview mirror. This camera

detects vehicle specific light and automatically switches

from high beams to low beams until the approaching

vehicle is out of view.
