and activate the wipers. The wipers will

See Washer Fluid 0253 for information on
filling the windshield washer fluid reservoir.
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 0257.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper
motor.
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use the
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
{Warning
Before driving the vehicle, always clear
snow and ice from the hood, windshield,
roof, and rear of the vehicle, including all
lamps and windows. Reduced visibility
from snow and ice buildup could lead to
a crash.
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, the wipers continue to run until
they reach the base of the windshield.
Compass
The vehicle has a compass display in the
Driver Information Center (DIC). The compass
receives its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning System (GPS)
antenna, StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability
Control (ESC), and vehicle speed information.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna, located on
the roof, for long periods of time with
objects that may interfere with the
antenna's ability to receive a satellite signal.
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 the GPS
signal is restored and provide a heading
again.
Clock
Set the time and date using the
infotainment system. See "Time / Date"
under Settings 0156.
