Power Folding Outside Mirrors For Standard And
Trailer Tow — If Equipped
If equipped with power folding mirrors, they can be electri-
cally folded rearward and unfolded into the drive position.
The switch for the power folding mirrors is located between
the power mirror switches L (left) and R (right). Push the
switch once and the mirrors will fold in, push the switch a
second time and the mirrors will return to the normal
driving position.
If the mirror is instructionly folded after electrically cycled, a
potential extra button push is required to get the mirrors
back to the home position. If the mirror does not electrically
fold, check for ice or dirt build up at the pivot area which can
cause excessive drag.
Power Folding Mirror Switch
Resetting The Power Folding Outside Mirrors
You may need to reset the power folding mirrors if the
following occurs:
• The mirrors are accidentally blocked while folding.
• The mirrors are accidentally instructionly folded/unfolded.
• The mirrors come out of the unfolded position.
• The mirrors shake and vibrate at normal driving speeds.
2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
64 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
To Reset The Power Folding Mirrors:
1. Using the power folding mirror switch, move the mirror
to its normal driving (home) position.
2. Using the power folding mirror switch, move the mirror
to the full retract position (this may require multiple
button pushes). This resets them to their normal position.
NOTE:
• The power fold mirrors are designed to operate while the
vehicle is stationary or traveling at moderate speeds. If you
attempt to power fold the mirrors at high speeds they may
not fully open or close. You should slow down to a
moderate speed and complete the operation.
• When pushing the power fold button 10 or more times in
one minute the system shuts down for one minute to
protect the motors from over heating.
Outside Mirrors Folding Feature
All outside mirrors are designed to be able to be instructionly
folded both forward and rearward to prevent damage.

CAUTION!
It is recommended to fold the mirrors into the full
rearward position to resist damage when entering a car
wash or a narrow location.

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) — If Equipped
The headlights on your vehicle will illuminate when the
engine is started and the transmission is in any gear except
PARK. This provides a constant "lights on" condition until
the ignition is turned OFF. The lights illuminate at less than
half of normal intensity. 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 may turn off for the duration of the turn signal acti-
vation. Once the turn signal is no longer active, the DRL
lamp will illuminate.
NOTE:
If allowed by law in the country in which the vehicle was
purchased, the Daytime Running Lights can be turned on
and off using the Uconnect System, refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever toward the instrument panel to
switch the headlights to high beam. Pulling the multifunc-
tion lever back toward the steering wheel will turn the low
beams back on, or shut the high beams off.
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 automatically switches from high
beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of
view.
NOTE:
• The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control can be
turned on or off by selecting “ON” under “Auto Dim High
Beams” within your Uconnect settings, as well as turning
the headlight switch to the AUTO position. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa-
tion.
• 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 function improperly.

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 the
headlight switch to the extreme clockwise position aligning
the indicator with the AUTO on the headlight switch. When
the system is on, the Headlight Time Delay feature is also on.
This means your headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds
after you turn the ignition switch OFF. To turn the Auto-
matic System off, turn the headlight switch counterclockwise
to the O (off) position.

To aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with a headlight
delay that will leave the headlights on for approximately up
to 90 seconds. This delay is initiated when the ignition is
turned off while the headlight switch is on, and then the
headlight switch is cycled off. Headlight delay can be
canceled by either turning the headlight switch on then off,
or by turning the ignition to the ON/RUN position.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS
Windshield Wipers
The wipers and washers are operated by a switch in the
multifunction lever. Turn the end of the lever to select the
desired wiper speed.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
75
Rotate the end of the lever upward, to the first detent past the
intermittent settings for low-speed wiper operation. Rotate
the end of the lever upward to the second detent past the
intermittent settings for high-speed wiper operation.
Intermittent Wiper System
The intermittent feature of this system was designed for use
when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a
variable pause between cycles, desirable. For maximum
delay between cycles, rotate the control knob upward to the
first detent.
The delay interval decreases as you rotate the knob until it
enters the low continual speed position. The delay can be
regulated from a maximum of about 18 seconds between
cycles, to a cycle every one second. The delay intervals will
double in duration when the vehicle speed is 10 mph
(16 km/h) or less.
Windshield Washers
To use the windshield washer, push the washer knob,
located on the end of the multifunction lever, inward to the
second detent. Washer fluid will be sprayed and the wiper
will operate for two to three cycles after the washer knob is
released from this position.
If the washer knob is depressed while in the delay range, the
wiper will operate for several seconds after the washer knob
is released. It will then resume the intermittent interval
previously selected. If the washer knob is pushed while in
the off position, the wiper will turn on and cycle approxi-
mately three times after the wash knob is released.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer system in
cold weather, select a solution or mixture that meets or
exceeds the temperature range of your climate. This rating
information can be found on most washer fluid containers.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could
lead to a collision. You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the windshield
during freezing weather, warm the windshield with the
defroster before and during windshield washer use.
