mets67 Posted June 9, 2013 at 02:49 PM Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 at 02:49 PM Last night while driving home the strangest thing happened - the brights would go on automatically every now and then and my hands were nowhere near the lever. Is there a setting that if the street is too dark they go on automatically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Fusion Posted June 9, 2013 at 04:05 PM Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 at 04:05 PM It uses the lane keeping camera (I think) to determine if there are no cars around and turns on the brights. I like the feature so I haven't tried to turn it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Fusion Posted June 9, 2013 at 04:34 PM Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 at 04:34 PM I think it's does an amazing job of detecting oncoming cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howardbc Posted June 9, 2013 at 05:01 PM Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 at 05:01 PM Thanks so much for addressing this subject. I noticed one day (afternoon? early evening?) that the brights were on when I pulled into my garage. I was mystified and thought I must have somehow set the headlights to bright, but now I am glad to hear that it is apparently a feature. I'll have to look in the owner's manual. 'Wish I had a 2nd copy so I could keep one in the car and one in the house. The last time I asked my salesperson, an extra copy of the owner's manual wasn't available. I'm sorry, I don't trust the on-line PDF to be the correct one for the 2013 Ford Fusion Energi. Can anyone verify where I can find the correct PDF for the owner's manual for the Fusion Energi? I keep finding one for the plain Fusion or for the Fusion Hybrid but those aren't the ones for the Fusion Energi. 'Seems like I found it once and thought I'd saved it on my PC, but it wasn't there the next time I went to look for it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphy Posted June 9, 2013 at 07:39 PM Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 at 07:39 PM The Fusion Hybrid and the Fusion Energi are combined in the same manual. Look at the cover page on the manual that came with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
