Heated Steering Wheel — If Equipped

The steering wheel contains a heating element that helps
warm your hands in cold weather. The heated steering
wheel has only one temperature setting. Once the heated
steering wheel has been turned on, it will operate for an
average of 80 minutes or more before automatically shut-
ting off. This time may vary depending on the temperature
of the environment. The heated steering wheel can shut off
early or may not turn on when the steering wheel is
already warm.

The heated steering wheel control button is located within
the Uconnect system. You can gain access to the control
button through the climate screen or the controls screen.
• Press the heated steering wheel button

once to turn

the heating element on.

• Press the heated steering wheel button

a second time

to turn the heating element off.

NOTE:

The engine must be running for the heated steering

wheel to operate.

Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start

On models that are equipped with remote start, the heated
steering wheel can be programmed to come on during a
remote start through the Uconnect system. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.

WARNING!

• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin

because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes,
spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion, or other physical conditions must exercise care

insulates against heat, such as a blanket or steering
wheel covers of any type and material. This may
cause the steering wheel heater to overheat.

Daytime Running Lights — If Equipped

The headlights or LED light bars on your vehicle will
illuminate when the engine is started. This provides a
constant lights on condition until the ignition is turned
OFF. If the parking brake is applied, the Daytime Running
Lights (DRL) will turn off. Also, if a turn signal is activated,
the DRL lamp on the same side of the vehicle will turn off
for the duration of the turn signal activation. Once the turn
signal is no longer active, the DRL lamp will illuminate.

High/Low Beam Switch

When the headlights are turned on, pushing the multifunc-
tion lever toward the instrument panel will switch from
low beams to high beams. Pulling back to the neutral
position returns the headlights to the low beam operation.

Automatic High Beam — If Equipped

The Automatic High Beam 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:

Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and tail-

lights 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 function improperly.

To Activate

1. Select “Automatic High Beams — ON” through the

Uconnect system. Refer to

⬙Uconnect Settings” in “Mul-

timedia” for further information.

2. Rotate the headlight switch clockwise to the AUTO

position.

3. Push the multifunction lever away from you to switch

the headlights to the high beam position. Refer to
“Multifunction Lever” for further information.

NOTE:

This system will not activate until the vehicle is at,

or above 16 mph (25 km/h).

To Deactivate

Perform either of the following steps to deactivate the
Automatic High Beam system.

1. Select “Automatic High Beams — OFF” through the

Uconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Mul-
timedia” for further information.

98

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

2. Pull the multifunction lever toward you to switch the

headlights from the high beam to the low beam position.

3. Rotate the headlight switch counterclockwise from the

AUTO to the on position.

NOTE:

Once active, the Automatic High Beam system will

stop functioning below 12 mph (20 km/h).

Flash-To-Pass

You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by
lightly pulling the multifunction lever toward you. This
will cause the high beam headlights to turn on, and remain
on, until the lever is released.

Automatic Headlights — If Equipped

This system automatically turns your headlights on or off
based on ambient light levels. To turn the system on, turn

for up to 90 seconds after you turn the ignition switch OFF.
To turn the Automatic System off, turn the headlight switch
counterclockwise to the O (off) position.

NOTE:

The engine must be running before the headlights

will come on in the Automatic mode.

Headlights On With Wipers — If Equipped

When your headlights are in the AUTO mode and the

on when the wiper system is also turned on. Headlights on
when windshield wipers are on may be found on vehicles
equipped with an automatic headlight system.

NOTE:

The Headlights with Wipers feature can be turned

on or off through the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.

on for extended periods of time when the ignition is in the
OFF position. After eight minutes of the ignition being in
the OFF position and the headlight switch in any position
other than OFF or AUTO, the lights will turn off automati-
cally until the next cycle of the ignition or headlight switch.
