lamps and windows. Reduced
visibility from snow and ice buildup
could lead to a crash.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper
blades and windshield before using
them. If frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them.
Damaged blades should be replaced.
See Wiper Blade Replacement 0331.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is turned off while the
wipers are on LO, HI, or INT, they will
immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is then
moved to OFF before the driver door is
opened or within 10 minutes, the
wipers will restart and move to the
base of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned off while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windshield washing or Rainsense
wipes, the wipers continue to run
until they reach the base of the
windshield.
Rainsense
There is a sensor near the top center
of the windshield detects the amount
of water on the windshield and
controls the frequency of the
windshield wiper. To turn this feature
on or off, see “Rain Sense Wipers ”
under Vehicle Personalization 0123.
Keep this area of the windshield clear
of debris to allow for best system
performance.
AUTO : When enabled, move the
windshield wiper lever to AUTO. Turn
the
xAUTO 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.
Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
If equipped with 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.
Wiper-Activated Headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps
and parking lamps after the
windshield wipers have been in use
for a while. The transition time for the
lamps coming on varies based on the
wiper speed. For this feature to work,
the exterior lamp control must be
in AUTO.
