WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHERS
The wipers and washers are operated by a switch within
the wiper lever. Rotate the end of the wiper lever to select
the desired wiper speed.
NOTE:Always remove any buildup of snow that prevents
the windshield wiper blades from returning to the off
position. If the windshield wiper switch is turned off and
the blades cannot return to the off position, damage to the
wiper motor may occur.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could
lead to a collision. You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the wind-
shield during freezing weather, warm the windshield
with the defroster before and during windshield
washer use.
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 wiper 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 36 seconds between cycles. The delay inter-
vals will double in duration when the vehicle speed is
10 mph (16 km/h) or less.

Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the end of the lever upward, to the first detent past
the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper operation.
Rotate the end of the lever upward to the second detent
past the intermittent settings for high-speed wiper opera-
tion.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever rearward toward you and
hold while spray is desired. If the lever is pulled while on
the intermittent setting, the wipers will turn on and operate
for several wipe cycles after the lever is released, and then
resume the intermittent interval previously selected. If the
lever is pulled while the wipers are in the off position, the
wipers will operate several wipe cycles, then turn off.
Mist Feature
Use the Mist feature when weather conditions make occa-
sional usage of the wipers necessary. Push the lever up-
ward to the Mist position and release for a single wiping
cycle.
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.
Rear Wiper And Washer
Rear Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the windshield wiper lever center ring upwards to
operate one of two modes for the rear window wiper:
• First detent — intermittent mode.
• Second detent — continuous mode.
Rear Windshield Washer Operation
Pushing the windshield wiper lever forward activates the
rear window washer. If the lever is pushed while on the
intermittent setting, the wipers will turn on and operate for
several wipe cycles after the lever is released, and then
resume the intermittent interval previously selected. If the
lever is pushed while the wipers are in the off position, the
wipers will operate several wipe cycles, then turn off.
Rain Sensing Wipers — If Equipped
This feature senses moisture on the windshield and auto-
matically activates the wipers for the driver. This feature is
especially useful for road splash or overspray from the
windshield washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of
the multifunction lever to one of the four intermittent
wiper sensitivity settings to activate this feature.
102 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

The sensitivity of the system is adjustable from the multi-
function lever. Wiper sensitivity position 3 has been cali-
brated for best overall wiping sensitivity. If the operator
desires more wiping sensitivity, they may select sensitivity
positions 4. If the operator desires less wiping sensitivity,
they may select sensitivity positions 2 or 1. Place the
multifunction lever in the OFF position when not using the
system.
NOTE:
•The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when the
wiper speed is in the low or high position.
• The Rain Sensing feature may not function properly
when ice or dried saltwater is present on the windshield.
• Use of Rain-X or products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
• The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and off
through the Uconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
The Rain Sensing system has protective 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 first switched ON, when the vehicle is stationary and the
outside temperature is below 32°F (0°C), unless the
wiper control on the multifunction lever is moved, the
vehicle speed becomes greater than 3 mph (5 km/h) or
the outside temperature rises above freezing.
• Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the ignition is ON, when the transmis-
sion gear selector is in the NEUTRAL position and the
vehicle speed is less than 3 mph (5 km/h), unless the
wiper control on the multifunction lever is moved, the
vehicle speed is greater than 3 mph (5 km/h) or the gear
selector is moved out of the NEUTRAL position.
• Remote Start Mode Inhibit — On vehicles equipped
with Remote Starting system, Rain Sensing wipers are
not operational when the vehicle is in the remote start
mode. Once the operator is in the vehicle and has placed
the ignition switch in the RUN position, rain sensing
wiper operation can resume, if it has been selected, and
no other inhibit conditions (mentioned previously) exist.
