FORD 2014 Transit Connect v.1 - Manual (Page 65)

When the headlamp switch is in the
Autolamps position, the windshield wiper
activated exterior lamps will turn on within
10 seconds when you switch the
windshield wipers on. The exterior lamps
will turn off approximately 60 seconds
after you switch the windshield wipers off.
This feature does not turn on the exterior
lamps:
•
during a mist wipe
• while the wipers are on to clear washer
fluid during a wash condition
• if the wipers are in automatic or
intermittent modes.
Note: If you have autolamps and
autowipers switched on the low beam
headlamps will turn on automatically when
the windshield wipers operate continuously.
Note: You may have to manually switch
the headlamps on in severe weather
conditions.
Note: If you have autolamps switched on
you can only switch the high beam
headlamps on once the system has turned
the headlamps on.

result in a crash.
The system turns the headlamps on when
the outside ambient light level is high.

1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Turn the lighting control switch to the
off or autolamp position.
