Automatic Lamp Control
Your vehicle is equipped with an Automatic Lamp Control system, which turns
on the headlamps, and other exterior lamps and the instrument panel lights,
at night or when necessary. The system’s light sensor is located on top of the
instrument panel. To ensure proper system operation, it’s important to avoid
placing any objects on or near the sensor.
The exterior lamps also can be operated manually. The exterior lamp control
knob is located on the left side of the instrument panel.

HEADLAMPS (IF EQUIPPED)
and EXTERIOR LAMP
CONTROLS
IntelliBeam uses a digital light
sensor on the rearview mirror to
maximize forward night vision.
The system automatically turns on
the high-beam headlamps when no
other vehicle traffic is present, and
switches to low-beam intensity
when the headlamps or taillamps
of other vehicles are detected. The
system operates only when driving
over 20 mph (32 km/h).
To turn on the system, press
and release the IntelliBeam (Auto)
button on the inside rearview
mirror. The indicator light on the
mirror will illuminate. Additionally,
enable the system by rotating
the exterior lamp control knob
to AUTO, with the turn signal/
multifunction lever in its neutral
position.
To turn off the system, press and
release the IntelliBeam (Auto)
button on the mirror. The indicator
light will turn off.
