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 windshield.
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 multifunction lever must be in the high
beam position in order for the Automatic High
Beam Headlamp Control to activate.
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
can be turned on or off through Uconnect
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.
When set to AUTO, the system automatically
turns the headlights on or off based on ambient
light levels.

When this feature is selected, the driver can
choose to have the headlights remain on for a
preset period of time after the engine is turned off.
Activation
To activate the delay feature, place the ignition in
the OFF position while the headlights are still on.
Then, rotate the multifunction lever to the O (off)
position within two minutes. The delay interval
begins when the headlight switch is turned from

switch is in AUTO position and headlights were on
before the ignition is OFF, the delay interval begins
automatically.
Deactivation
The feature is disabled by turning on the
headlights, the parking lights or by placing the
ignition in the RUN position. If you shut off the
lights before the ignition is turned on, they will
turn off in the normal manner.
