Headlights On Automatically With Wipers

If your vehicle is equipped with Automatic Headlights, it
also has this customer-programmable feature. When your
headlights are in the automatic mode and the engine is
running, they will automatically turn on when the wiper
system is on. This feature is programmable through the
Uconnect system screen. Refer to "Uconnect Settings" in
"Multimedia" for further information.
If your vehicle is equipped with a "Rain Sensitive Wiper
System" and it is activated, the headlights will automati-
cally turn on after the wipers complete five wipe cycles
within approximately one minute, and they will turn off
approximately four minutes after the wipers completely
stop. Refer to "Windshield Wipers And Washers" in this
section for further information.
NOTE: When your headlights come on during the day-
time, the instrument panel lights will automatically dim to
the lower nighttime intensity.

Headlight Delay

To aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with a
headlight delay that will leave the headlights on for
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 73

when the ignition is turned OFF while the headlight switch
is on, and then the headlight switch is cycled off. Headlight
delay can be cancelled by either turning the headlight
switch on then off, or by turning the ignition ON.
NOTE:
• This feature can be programmed through the Uconnect
system. Refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Multimedia"
for further information.
• The headlight delay feature is automatically activated if
the headlight switch is left in the A (auto) position when
the ignition is placed in the OFF position.

Lights-On Reminder

If the headlights, parking lights or cargo lights are left on
after the ignition is turned OFF, a chime will sound when
the driver's door is opened.
