your headlights are in the automatic mode and the
engine is running, they will automatically turn on when
the wiper system is on. Refer to "Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)/Customer-Programmable
Features" in "Understanding Your Instrument Panel" for
further information.

stop. Refer to "Windshield Wipers and Washers" in this
section for further information.
NOTE: When your headlights come on during the
daytime, the instrument panel lights will automatically
dim to the lower nighttime intensity. Refer to "Lights" in

SmartBeam™ — If Equipped
The SmartBeam™ 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 spe-
cific light and automatically switches from high beams to
low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE: If the windshield or SmartBeam™ mirror is
replaced, the SmartBeam™ mirror must be re-aimed to
ensure proper performance. See your local authorized
dealer.
