NOTE
• You cannot momentarily flash
headlights when high beams are
on. The headlights will flash on if
they are of
f, if headlamps are on
as low beams, headlamps dim to
25%.
• Headlight flash is not available
on models with high intensity
discharge (HID) headlight op-
tion.
• Check your local state’s regula-
tions for any restriction on the
use of the high-beam flashing
function.
How to Momentarily Flash High
Beams
The "flash to pass" high beam function is
operated by the same steering column
lever for the turn signals. The high beam
flash to pass will work if the headlights are
not on.
1.
Gently push the turn signal lever,
away from the steering wheel.
2. The lever will automatically return
when the lever is released.
The blue indicator light in the instrument
panel will momentarily turn ON and the
high beams will flash. The high beams will
not remain on if the lever is still pressed.
NOTE
Continued pressing of the high beam
flash will not keep the high beams on.
Operate the Windshield Wipers
This vehicle is equipped with a two speed,
intermittent windshield wiper system. The
windshield wiper system is integrated with
the exterior lights so that the low beam
headlights will turn on when the windshield
wipers turn on.
WARNING
Clean blades regularly with a damp
cloth
to remove road film and wax
buildup. DO NOT drive with worn or
dirty wiper blades. They can reduce
visibility, making driving hazardous
which may lead to an accident result-
ing in death or personal injury.
CAUTION
DO NOT use antifreeze or engine
coolant
in the windshield washer res-
ervoir, damage to seals and other
components will result.
To override this function, turn the
headlights on and then of
f again.
Permanently overriding this functionality is
attainable via the Settings Menu in the
instrument cluster display. Go to
Settings > Wiper Interlock and turn this
value to OFF.
Avoid running the wiper blades over a dry
windshield to prevent scratching the glass.
Spray on washer fluid first. A scratched
windshield will reduce visibility.
