der conditions of exclusive short duration and low
speed driving and low speed driving cycles, the engine
and exhaust after-treatment system may never reach
the conditions required to remove the trapped PM. If

quired Now” message will be displayed on the EVIC. By
driving your vehicle at highway speeds for as little as 30
minutes, you can remedy the condition in the particu-
late filter system by allowing the trapped PM to be
removed to restore the system to normal operating
condition.

MIST FEATURE
Push the washer knob, located on the end of the
multifunction lever, inward to the first detent to acti-
vate a single wipe cycle to clear the windshield of road
mist or spray from a passing vehicle. The wipers will
continue to operate until you release the lever.
NOTE:The mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on the
windshield. The wash function must be used in order to
spray the windshield with washer fluid.
HEADLIGHTS ON WITH WIPERS (for
versions/markets, where provided)
When this feature is active, the headlights will turn on
after the wipers are turned on if the headlight switch is
placed in the AUTO position and programmable fea-
ture is set to ON. In addition, the headlights will turn
off when the wipers are turned off if they were turned
on by this feature.
NOTE: The Headlights On with Wipers feature can be
turned on or off using the Uconnect® System. Refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Knowing Your Vehicle” for
further information.HEADLIGHT WASHERS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Headlight Washers are recessed into the top of
the fascia, centrally located below each headlight.
The windshield wiper/washer control lever operates
the headlight washers when the ignition switch is in the
ON position and the headlights are ON. The lever is
located on the left side of the steering column.
To use the headlight washers, push the washer knob,
located on the end of the multifunction lever, inward to
the second detent to activate the windshield washers
and release it. When this is done, the two stationary
washer nozzles at each headlight spray one timed
high-pressure spray of washer fluid onto each headlight
lens. In addition, the windshield washers will spray the
windshield and the windshield wipers will cycle.
NOTE: After turning the ignition switch and head-
lights ON, the headlight washers will operate on the
first spray of the windshield washer and then every
eleventh spray after that.
