Rainsense windshield wipers.
With Rainsense, if the electric drive
unit is in N (Neutral) and the vehicle
speed is very slow, the wipers will

windshield, blocking your vision.
Compass
The compass displays in the center
stack. The compass receives its
heading and other information
from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna,
StabiliTrak
®, and vehicle speed
information. The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading again. See
Compass
Messages on page 5-42 for the
messages that may be displayed for
the compass.
