Rainsense™ Wipers (if equipped)
The Rainsense system monitors the
amount of moisture on the windshieldand automatically operates the wipers
as needed, depending on driving condi
tions and the sensitivity setting. The
moisture sensor is mounted on the interior side of the windshield behind the
rearview mirror.
The Rainsense wipers operate in a
delay mode as well as a continuous lowor high speed as needed. If the system
is left on for long periods of time, occasional wipes may occur without anymoisture on the windshield to indicatethe system is active.
To activate the Rainsense wipers:
Turn the wiper band to one of the five
sensitivity levels within the delay area.
The position closest to OFF is the low
est sensitivity level. Each higher sensitivity level increases the frequency of
wipes. The system can be overridden atany time by manually turning the wiperband to LO or HI speed.
