Automatic Lighting — If Equipped
Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO posi-
tion.
When the automatic headlights are enabled,
the headlight time delay is active. After the
ignition is placed in the OFF position, the
headlights will automatically turn off after
the time is set by Uconnect Settings.
The timing of the headlights is adjustable
between 0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the head-
lights will come on in the automatic mode.
Light Sensor
The light sensor is equipped with an infrared
LED, located on the windshield. It detects
changes in light intensity outside the vehicle,
based on the sensitivity of light set by using
the menu on the display or on the Uconnect
system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the
amount of external light required for control-
ling the lighting.
Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
— If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at
night by automating high beam control
through the use of a digital camera mounted
on the inside rearview mirror. This camera
detects vehicle specific light and automati-
cally switches from high beams to low beams
until the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE:
• The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Con-
trol can be turned on or off using the
Uconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner’s
Manual on
www.jeep.com/en/owners/manuals/ for fur-
ther information.
• 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 obstructions on the windshield or
camera lens will cause the system to func-
tion improperly.
Parking Lights
From the O (off) position, rotate the headlight
switch to the first detent (parking position) to
turn on the parking lights. The parking light
indicator in the instrument cluster will illumi-
nate.
Headlight Delay
This feature provides the safety of headlight
illumination for up to 90 seconds when leav-
ing your vehicle in an unlit area.
The time delay of the headlights is program-
mable between 0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds.
Headlight Delay Activation
To activate the delay feature, place the igni-
tion in the OFF position while the headlights
are still on. Then, turn off the headlights
within two minutes. The delay interval begins
when the headlight switch is turned off from
the “Lowbeam” position.
If the headlight switch is in AUTO position
and headlights were on before the ignition is
OFF, the delay interval begins automatically.
