Lighting

There is a light sensor on top of the
instrument panel. Do not cover the sensor.
The system may also turn on the headlamps
when driving through a parking garage or
tunnel.
If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system comes on
immediately. If it is light outside when the
vehicle leaves the garage, there is a slight
delay before the automatic headlamp
system changes to the Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL). During that delay, the
instrument cluster may not be as bright as
usual. Make sure the instrument panel
brightness control is in the full bright
position. See
.
When it is bright enough outside, the
headlamps will turn off or may change
to DRL.
The automatic headlamp system turns off
when the exterior lamp control is set to On
or the vehicle is off.
Lamps On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are activated in
daylight with the vehicle on and the exterior
lamp control is set to Auto, the headlamps,
parking lamps, and other exterior lamps
come on. The transition time for the lamps
coming on varies based on wiper speed.
When the wipers are not operating, these
lamps turn off. Set the exterior lamp control
to On or Off to disable this feature.
Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL)
If equipped with the AFL system, the
high-beam headlamps move horizontally
while turning the steering wheel to provide
greater road illumination around curves.
To activate AFL, set the exterior lamp
control to the Auto position, and Adaptive
Headlight system is active. See
.
To adjust the AFL setting, go to the
infotainment home screen and select
Settings > Vehicle > Lighting.
Moving the exterior lamp controls out of the
Auto position will deactivate the system.
The high-beam headlamps can move
horizontally when the vehicle speed is
greater than 3 km/h (2 mph). Headlamps will
not move horizontally when the electric
drive unit is in R (Reverse).
If equipped, the AFL system automatically
modifies the low-beam lighting patterns to
the situation to enable optimal light
performance for the driver. Light distribution
and intensity of low-beam light are
controlled based on exterior lighting
conditions, vehicle location, and driving
situations.
