Exterior Lamp Controls

The exterior lamp controls, also known as
headlights, are in the Controls App on the
infotainment home screen. Select Controls >
Lights > Headlights.
To operate, select the following options:
Off : Turns off the exterior lamps.
Auto : Automatically turns the exterior
lamps on and off, depending on outside
lighting.
Parking : Turns on the parking lamps.
On : Turns on the exterior lamps.
IntelliBeam System
If equipped, this system turns the high-beam
headlamps on and off according to
surrounding traffic conditions.
The system turns the high-beam headlamps
on when it is dark enough and there is no
other traffic present.
This light appears on the instrument
cluster when the IntelliBeam system is
enabled.
Turning the IntelliBeam On and Off
To enable and disable the IntelliBeam
system on the infotainment home screen,
select Control > Lights > Auto High
Beams when the headlights are set in the
Auto position.
Driving with IntelliBeam
The system only activates the high beams
when driving over 40 km/h (25 mph).
The blue high-beam on light appears on the
instrument cluster when the high beams
are on.
There is a sensor near the top center of the
windshield that automatically controls the
system. Keep this area of the windshield
clear of debris to allow for best system
performance.
The high-beam headlamps remain on, under
the automatic control, until one of the
following situations occurs:
The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps.
The system detects a preceding vehicle's
taillamps.
The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
