NOTE:
Vehicles sold in Canada are equipped with a head-light switch without the OFF position. In order to turn the exterior lights off, the headlight switch must be rotated to AUTO position.
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) — IF 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 CONTROL — 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 228, 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
- page 228) 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.

TURN SIGNALS
Move the multifunction lever up or down to activate the turn signals. The arrows on each side of the instrument cluster flash to show proper operation.
NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash, or there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
LANE CHANGE ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
Lightly push the multifunction lever up or down, without moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal will flash three times then automatically turn off.
BED LIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The bed lights will illuminate the bed and cargo area. Bed lights are turned on by pushing the bed light switch located on the lower half of the headlight switch.
