Turning On and Enabling
IntelliBeam
Press and release the IntelliBeam
button on the inside rear view
mirror. The IntelliBeam indicator on
the mirror will turn on to let you
know the system has been turned
on. Once the system has been
turned on, it will remain on each
time the vehicle is started.
Additionally, the IntelliBeam system
must be enabled.
To enable the IntelliBeam system,
turn the exterior lamp control to
AUTO, with the turn signal/
multifunction lever in its neutral
position. The High-Beam On Light
will appear on the instrument panel
cluster when the high-beams are on.
Driving with IntelliBeam
IntelliBeam will only activate your
high-beams when driving over
32 km/h (20 mph).
The high-beam headlamps will
remain on, under the automatic
control of IntelliBeam, until any of
the following situations occur:
.
The system detects an
approaching vehicle's
headlamps.
.
The system detects a preceding
vehicle's taillamps.
.
The outside light is bright
enough that high-beam
headlamps are not required.
.
The vehicle's speed drops below
24 km/h (15 mph).
.
The headlamp stalk is moved
forward to the high-beam
position.
When either of these conditions
occur, the IntelliBeam feature
will be disabled and the
IntelliBeam light in the mirror will
turn off until the high-beam stalk
is returned to the neutral
position.
.
If IntelliBeam was using
low-beams prior to this action,
the IntelliBeam feature will be
temporarily disabled until the
stalk is returned to the neutral
position.
.
The exterior lamp control is
turned to any setting
except AUTO.
When this occurs, IntelliBeam
will be disabled until the control
is turned back to the AUTO
position.
.
The IntelliBeam system is turned
off at the inside rearview mirror.
IntelliBeam may not turn off the
high-beams if the system cannot
detect other vehicle's lamps
because of any of the following:
.
The others vehicle's lamp(s) are
missing, damaged, obstructed
from view or otherwise
undetected.
.
The other vehicle's lamp(s) are
covered with dirt, snow and/or
road spray.
