To Deactivate

Perform either of the following steps to deactivate the SmartBeam™ system.

1. Select “Automatic High Beams — OFF” through the EVIC. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Customer-Programmable Features” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further information.

2. Pull the multifunction lever toward you to switch the headlights from the high beam to the low beam position.

3. Rotate the headlight switch clockwise from the AUTO (A) to the on position.

NOTE:
Broken, muddy or obstructed headlights and taillights of vehicles in the field of view will cause headlights to remain on longer (closer to the vehicle).
Also, dirt, film and other obstructions on the windshield or camera lens will cause the system to function improperly.
