The headlamps remain on for a period of time after you switch the ignition off. Use the touchscreen 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

The headlamps do not turn on with the wipers:

  • When using the windshield washers.
  • If the wipers are in intermittent mode.
