Wiper Parking
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are on LO, HI, or AUTO with
Rainsense disabled, they will
immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is then
moved to OFF before the driver door is
opened or within 10 minutes after the
ignition is off, the wipers will restart
and move to the base of the
windshield.
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windshield washing or Rainsense, the
wipers continue to run until they
reach the base of the windshield.
Rainsense™
With Rainsense, a sensor near the top
center of the windshield detects the
amount of water on the windshield
and controls the sensitivity of the
windshield wiper. Keep this area of the windshield clear
of debris to allow for best system
performance.
AUTO :
If Rainsense is enabled, move
the windshield wiper lever to AUTO.
Turn the band on the wiper lever to
adjust the sensitivity.
. Turn the band up for more
sensitivity to moisture.
. Turn the band down for less
sensitivity to moisture.
. Move the windshield wiper lever
out of the AUTO position to
deactivate Rainsense.
To enable or disable this feature, see
“Rainsense Wipers” underVehicle
Personalization 0152. Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash,
move the windshield wiper lever to
OFF. This disables the automatic
Rainsense windshield wipers.
With Rainsense, if the transmission is
in N (Neutral) and the vehicle speed is
very slow, the wipers will
automatically stop at the base of the
windshield.
The wiper operations return to normal
when the transmission is no longer in
N (Neutral) or the vehicle speed has
increased.

when the engine is started to indicate
they are working. When one of the
warning lights comes on and stays on
while driving, or when one of the
gauges shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.
