IntellliBeam™ Intelligent High-Beam
Headlamp Control System
If your vehicle has this feature, be sure to read
this entire section before using it.
IntellliBeam™ is an enhancement to your vehicle’s
headlamp system. Using a digital light sensor
on your rearview mirror, this system will turn the
vehicle’s high-beam headlamps on and off
according to surrounding traffic conditions.
The IntellliBeam™ system will turn your high-beam
headlamps on when it is dark enough, there is
no other traffic present, and the IntellliBeam
system is enabled.
Turning On and Enabling IntellliBeam™
Press and release the IntellliBeam™ button on the
inside rear view mirror. The IntellliBeam™ indicator
on the mirror will turn on to let you know the system
has been turned on. Once the system has been
turned on, it will remain on each time the vehicle is
started. Additionally, the IntellliBeam system must
be enabled.
To enable the IntellliBeam™ system, turn the
exterior lamp control to AUTO, with the turn
signal/multifunction lever in its neutral position.
The High-Beam On Light will appear on the
instrument panel cluster when the high-beams
are on. See Highbeam On Light on page 241.
Driving with IntellliBeam™
IntellliBeam™ will only activate your high-beams
when driving over 20 mph (32 km/h).
The high-beam headlamps will remain on, under
the automatic control of IntellliBeam™, until any
of the following situations occur:
The system detects an approaching vehicle’s
headlamps.
The system detects a preceding vehicle’s
taillamps.
The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
The vehicle’s speed drops below
15 mph (24 km/h).
