you switch the windshield wipers on.

Note:

Make sure that you switch the

windshield wipers off before entering a car
wash.

Note:

If streaks or smears appear on the

windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. If that does not resolve the
issue, install new wiper blades.

Note:

Do not operate the wipers on a dry

windshield. This may scratch the glass,
damage the wiper blades or cause the wiper
motor to burn out. Always use the
windshield washers before wiping a dry
windshield.

Intermittent Wipe

Use the rotary control to adjust the
intermittent wipe interval.

Speed Dependent Wipers

When your vehicle speed increases, the

inconsistent and unexpected wiping or
smearing.

Wipers and Washers

E295997

High sensitivity.

Autowipers On.

Low sensitivity.

Use the rotary control to adjust the

when the sensor detects a large amount
of water on the windshield. When you
select high sensitivity, the wipers operate
when the sensor detects a small amount
of water on the windshield.

Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive and the
wipers may operate if dirt, mist or insects
hit the windshield.

In these conditions, you can do the
following:
•

Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on
the windshield.

•

Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.

•

Switch autowipers off.

Note:

Fully defrost the windshield before

you switch the windshield wipers on.

Note:

Make sure that you switch the

windshield wipers off before entering a car
wash.

Note:

If streaks or smears appear on the

windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. If that does not resolve the
issue, install new wiper blades.

Note:

If you switch autolamps and

autowipers on, the headlamps turn on when
the windshield wipers continuously operate.

Autowipers Settings

Autowipers defaults to on and remains on

off in the information display. See

Information Displays

(page 96).

Note:

Do not operate the washers when

the washer reservoir is empty. This could
cause the washer pump to overheat.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Condensation in the Exterior Front
Lamps and Rear Lamps

Exterior front lamps and rear lamps have
vents to accommodate normal changes
in air pressure.

Condensation can be a natural by-product
of this design. When moist air enters the
lamp assembly through the vents, there is
a possibility that condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When
normal condensation occurs, a fine mist
can form on the interior of the lens. The
fine mist eventually clears and exits
through the vents during normal operation.

Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours
under dry weather conditions.

Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•

The presence of a fine mist (no streaks,
drip marks or large droplets).

•

A fine mist covers less than 50% of the
lens.

Examples of unacceptable condensation
are:
•

A water puddle inside the lamp.

•

Streaks, drip marks or large droplets
present on the interior of the lens.

If you see any unacceptable condensation,
have your vehicle checked by an authorized
dealer.

AUTOLAMPS

WARNING:

The system does not

relieve you of your responsibility to drive
with due care and attention. You may
need to override the system if it does not
turn the headlamps on in low visibility
conditions, for example daytime fog.

E142451

When the lighting control is in the
autolamps position, the headlamps turn
on in low light situations, or when the
wipers turn on.

The headlamps remain on for a period of
time after you switch the ignition off. Use
the information display controls to adjust
the period of time that the headlamps
remain on.

Note:

If you switch the autolamps on, you

cannot switch the high beams on until the
system turns the low beams on.

Windshield Wiper Activated
Headlamps

When you switch the autolamps on, the
headlamps turn on within 10 seconds of
switching the wipers on. They turn off
approximately 60 seconds after you switch
the windshield wipers off.

The headlamps do not turn on with the
wipers:
•

During a single wipe.

•

When using the windshield washers.

•

If the wipers are in intermittent mode.

Note:

If you switch the autolamps and the

autowipers on, the headlamps turn on when

DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS

WARNING:

The daytime running

lamps system does not activate the rear

lighting during low visibility driving
conditions. Make sure you switch the
headlamps on, as appropriate, during all
low visibility conditions. Failure to do so
may result in a crash.

Type One - Conventional (Non-
Configurable)

The daytime running lamps turn on when:
1.

Switching the ignition on.

2. The transmission is not in park (P) for

vehicles with automatic transmissions,
or releasing the parking brake for
vehicles with manual transmissions.

3. The lighting control is in the off, parking

lamp or autolamps positions.

4. The headlamps are off.

Type Two - Configurable

Switch the daytime running lamps on or
off using the information display. See

Information Displays

(page 96).

The daytime running lamps turn on when:
1.

The lamps are on in the information
display.

all switch positions.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL

(IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING:

The system does not

relieve you of your responsibility to drive
with due care and attention. You may
need to override the system if it does not
turn the high beams on or off.

The system turns on high beams if it is dark
enough and no other traffic is present. If it
detects an approaching vehicle’s
headlamps or tail lamps, or street lighting
ahead, the system turns off high beams
before they can distract other road users.
Low beams remain on.

Note:

The system may not operate properly

if the sensor is blocked. Keep the windshield
free from obstruction or damage.

Note:

The system may not operate properly

in cold or inclement conditions. You can
switch on the high beams by overriding the
system.

Note:

If the system detects a blockage, for

example bird droppings, bug splatter, snow
or ice, the system goes into low beam mode
until you clear the blockage. A message may
appear in the information display if the
camera is blocked.

Note:

Using much larger tires or equipping

vehicle accessories such as snowplows can
modify your vehicle's ride height and
degrade automatic high beam control
performance.

A camera sensor, centrally mounted
behind the windshield of your vehicle,
continuously monitors conditions to turn
the high beams on and off.

Once the system is active, the high beams
turn on if:
•

The ambient light level is low enough.

•

There is no traffic in front of your
vehicle.

•

The vehicle speed is greater than
approximately 32 mph (51 km/h).

The system turns the high beams off if:
•

The ambient light level is high enough
that high beams are not required.

•

The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps or tail lamps.

•

The vehicle speed falls below
approximately 27 mph (44 km/h).

•

The system detects severe rain, snow
or fog.

•

The camera is blocked.

Switching the System On and Off

Switch the system on using the information
display. See
