or equal to 67.7 mm forward of the
rear stop. The seat will return to its previously set position when you
place the ignition into the ACC or
RUN position.
 When you cycle the ignition to the OFF position, the driver seat will
move to a position 7.7 mm forward
of the rear stop if the driver seat
position is between 22.7 mm and
67.7 mm forward of the rear stop.
The seat will return to its previously
set position when you place the ig-
nition to the ACC or RUN position.
 The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature is disabled when the driver seat po-
sition is less than 22.7 mm forward
of the rear stop. At this position,
there is no benefit to the driver by
moving the seat for Easy Exit or

WINDSHIELD WIPERS
AND WASHERS
The multifunction lever operates the
windshield wipers and washer when
the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN
or ACC position. The multifunction
lever is located on the left side of the
steering column.
Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to the first detent, past the inter-
mittent settings for low-speed wiper
operation, or to the second detent past
the intermittent settings for high-
speed wiper operation.
CAUTION!
 Turn the windshield wipers offwhen driving through an auto-
matic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if
the wiper control is left in any
position other than off.
 In cold weather, always turn off
the wiper switch and allow the
wipers to return to the “Park” po-
sition before turning off the en-
gine. If the wiper switch is left on
and the wipers freeze to the wind-
shield, damage to the wiper motor
may occur when the vehicle is re-
started.
 Always remove any buildup of
snow that prevents the windshield
wiper blades from returning to the
off position. If the windshield
wiper control is turned off and the
blades cannot return to the off
position, damage to the wiper mo-
tor may occur.
INTERMITTENT WIPER
SYSTEM
Use the intermittent wiper when
weather conditions make a single wiping cycle with a variable pause
between cycles desirable. Rotate the
end of the multifunction lever to the
first detent position, and then turn the
end of the lever to select the desired
delay interval. There are four delay
settings, which allow you to regulate
the wipe interval from a minimum of
one cycle every second to a maximum
of approximately 18 seconds between
cycles. The delay intervals will double
in duration when the vehicle speed is
16 km/h or less.
MIST FEATURE
Rotate the end of the lever downward
to the Mist position to activate a single
wipe cycle to clear off road mist or
spray from a passing vehicle. The
wipers will continue to operate until
you release the multifunction 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.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Control

NOTE:
 The Rain Sensing feature willnot operate when the wiper
speed is in the low or high posi-
tion.
 The Rain Sensing feature may not function properly when ice
or dried salt water is present on
the windshield.
 Use of Rain­X® or products containing wax or silicone may
reduce rain sensor performance.
The Rain Sensing system has protec-
tive features for the wiper blades and
arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
 Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
— The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the ignition is
placed in the RUN position, the ve-
hicle is stationary and the outside
temperature is below 0°C, unless
the wiper control on the multifunc-
tion lever is moved, the vehicle
speed becomes greater than 0 km/h
or the outside temperature rises
above freezing. 
Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain
Sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is placed in the
RUN position, the transmission
shift lever is in the NEUTRAL po-
sition and the vehicle speed is less
than 8 km/h, unless the wiper con-
trol on the multifunction lever is
moved or the shift lever is moved
out of the NEUTRAL position.
HEADLIGHT WASHERS
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The multifunction lever operates the
headlight washers when the ignition
switch is in the ON position and the
headlights are turned on. The multi-
function lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
To use the headlight washers, push
the multifunction lever inward (to-
ward the steering column) to the sec-
ond detent and release it. The head-
light washers will spray a 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 headlights ON, the headlight
washers will operate on the first
spray of the windshield washer
and then every eleventh spray after
that.
