Cadillac 2007 STS-V Automobile User Manual


 
The high-beam headlamps are manually
turned on or you use the flash-to-pass feature.
See Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on
page 183 and Flash-to-Pass on page 188.
When either of these conditions occur,
the IntelliBeam™ feature is temporarily
disabled until the high-beam stalk is returned
to the neutral position. If either of these
conditions occur and IntelliBeam™ already
has the high-beam headlamps on, the
IntelliBeam™ feature is disabled and the
IntelliBeam™ light in the mirror turns off.
The exterior lamp control is turned to any
setting except AUTO.
When this occurs, IntelliBeam™ is disabled
until the control is turned back to the
AUTO position and the AUTOMATIC LIGHTS
ON message displays on the DIC.
The IntelliBeam™ system is turned off at the
inside rearview mirror.
The vehicle’s speed drops below
15 mph (24 km/h).
IntelliBeam™ may not turn off the high-beams if
the system cannot detect other vehicle’s lamps
because of any of the following:
The others vehicle’s lamp(s) are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view, or otherwise
undetected.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) are covered with
dirt, snow and/or road spray.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) cannot be detected
due to dense exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist, or other airborne obstructions.
Your vehicle’s windshield is dirty, cracked, or
obstructed by something that blocks the view
of the IntelliBeam™ light sensor.
Your vehicle’s windshield is covered with ice,
dirt, haze, or other obstructions.
Your vehicle is loaded such that the front end
of the vehicle points upward, causing the
IntelliBeam™ sensor to aim high and
not detect headlamps and taillamps.
You are driving on winding or hilly roads.
You might need to manually disable or cancel the
high-beam headlamps by turning the low-beam
headlamps on, if any of the above conditions exist.
