Washer And Wiper Controls

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. Intermittent Wipers
Use the intermittent wiper when weather conditions make
a single wiping cycle with a variable pause between cycles
desirable. Rotate the switch at the end of the wiper lever
to the first detent position, and then turn the switch at 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 intervals will double in duration when the
vehicle speed is 10 mph (16 km/h) or less.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever rearward toward you
and hold. 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 cycles, then turn off.
Mist
Push the lever upward 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 wind

to activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system is adjustable from the
windshield wiper lever. Wiper sensitivity position 1 is the
least sensitive, and wiper sensitivity position 4 is the most
sensitive.
NOTE:
 The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when the
wiper switch is in the low or high position.
 The Rain Sensing feature may not function properly
when ice or dried saltwater is present on the wind -
shield.
 Use of products containing wax or silicone may reduce
rain sensor performance.
 The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and off
through the Uconnect system
Úpage 105.
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 placed
in the ON position, when the vehicle is stationary and
the outside temperature is below 32°F (0°C), unless
the wiper control on the windshield wiper lever is
moved, the vehicle speed becomes greater than 3 mph
(5 km/h) or the outside temperature rises above
freezing.
