Lights Note: Activating the multi-function lever will put the headlamps in manual high beam mode (constant or flash-to-pass) until the lever is returned to the neutral position. To manually override the auto high beam and go to low beam, the headlamp control must be taken out of the (autolamp) position. For severe fog on freeways, or severe fog in low traffic situations, use of fog lamps is recommended. Setting auto high beam sensitivity The automatic high beam system has two sensitivity settings. The default setting is near. If you would like the high beams to turn off when traffic is further away, the sensitivity setting can be changed to far. The procedure is as follows: Preconditions: • Vehicle is at a stop. • Ignition is in the on position. • The headlamp control is in the • High-beams are off. Programming Sequence: 1. Turn the headlamp control from times within two seconds, ending in (on) to (on). (autolamp) three position. 2. Cycle flash-to-pass three times using the multi-function lever. 3. The high beams will flash momentarily to confirm that the sensitivity setting has been changed. Note: The programming sequence will end if either of the following occur: • The vehicle speed is not zero. • The battery voltage is out of normal range. Troubleshooting If the automatic high beam camera becomes blocked, the high beams may not come on automatically. They will only activate when they are manually turned on with the multi-function lever. Typical road dust, dirt and water spots will not affect the automatic high beam system's performance. However, in cold or inclement weather conditions, the automatic high beam system's availability may be decreased. In such conditions, the manual override may be used to turn the high beams on or off. 60 2010 MKS (mks) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
