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 to the AUTO position.
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.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will
turn on in the Automatic Mode.
DIRECTIONAL LED HEADLAMP
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
This is a system consisting of LED (low/high beam)
headlights that incorporate dynamic cornering with
5-degree inboard/15-degree outboard swivel. The
headlights continuously and automatically adapt to the
driving conditions around bends or when cornering
based on steering wheel angle.
The system directs the headlights to light up the road in
the best way, taking into account the speed of the
vehicle and the bend or corner angle, as well as the
speed of the vehicle while the steering wheel is being
turned.
The adaptive lights are automatically activated when
the vehicle is traveling above approximately 5 mph
(8 km/h).
This system can be turned on/off through the Uconnect
Settings under “Steering Directed Lights”
page 174.
PARKING LIGHTS AND PANEL LIGHTS
To turn on the parking lights and instrument panel
lights, rotate the headlight switch clockwise. To turn off
the parking lights, rotate the headlight switch back to
the O (off) position.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS 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
page 174.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Rain Sensing Wiper
system
page 47, and it is activated, the headlights
will automatically turn on after the wipers complete five
wipe cycles within approximately one minute, and they
will turn off approximately four minutes after the wipers
completely stop.
NOTE:
When your headlights come on during the daytime, the
instrument panel lights will automatically dim to the
lower nighttime intensity.
HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION ON
APPROACH
When enabled, the headlights, exterior door handle
pocket lights (if equipped), and interior lights will illumi-
nate when the unlock button on the key fob is pushed
as the operator is approaching the vehicle. This feature
can be turned on/off, and the length of time the head-
lights stay on can be programmed for up to 90 seconds
within Uconnect Settings
page 174.
HEADLIGHT DELAY
To assist when exiting the vehicle, the headlight delay
feature will leave the headlights on for up to 90 sec-
onds. This delay is initiated when the ignition is placed
in the OFF position while the headlight switch is on, and
then the headlight switch is cycled off. Headlight delay
can be canceled by either turning the headlight switch
on then off, or by placing the ignition in the ON position.
NOTE:
•
This feature can be programmed through the
Uconnect system
page 174.
•
The headlight delay feature is automatically acti-
vated if the headlight switch is left in the AUTO posi-
tion when the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
LIGHTS-ON REMINDER
If the headlights, parking lights, or cargo lights are left on
after the ignition is placed in the OFF position, a chime will
sound and a message will appear in the instrument clus-
ter display when the driver’s door is opened.
