WINDSHIELD WIPERS
Note:
Fully defrost the windshield before
switching on the windshield wipers.
Note: Make sure you switch off the
windshield wipers before entering a car
wash.
Note: Clean the windshield and wiper
blades if they begin to leave streaks or
smears. If that does not resolve the issue,
install new wiper blades.
Note: Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windshield. This may scratch the glass,
damage the wiper blades or cause the wiper
motor to burn out. Always use the
windshield washers before wiping a dry
windshield. Single wipe

Speed Dependent Wipers
When your vehicle speed increases, the

AUTOWIPERS (If Equipped)
The feature uses a rain sensor. You will find
it in the area around the interior mirror. The
rain sensor monitors the amount of
moisture on the windshield and
automatically turns on the wipers. It
adjusts the wiper speed by the amount of
moisture that the sensor detects on the
windshield. You can switch this feature on
and off in the information display. See
General Information
(page 83).

Highest sensitivity

Lowest sensitivity
C
Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain sensor. There are six
sensitivity settings. When you set the
control to low sensitivity (the first
position), the wipers turn on when there is
a large amount of moisture on the
windshield. When you set the control to
high sensitivity (the sixth position), the
wipers will turn on when there is a small
amount of moisture on the windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive. If the area
around the mirror is dirty, then the wipers
may operate if dirt, mist or insects hit the
windshield.
Wet or winter driving conditions with ice,
snow or salty road mist can cause
inconsistent and unexpected wiping or
smearing. You can do the following to help
keep your windshield clear:
• Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing.
• Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
• Switch off the autowipers.
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
switching on the windshield wipers. Note:
Make sure you switch off the
windshield wipers before entering a car
wash.
Note: Clean the windshield and wiper
blades if they begin to leave streaks or
smears. If that does not resolve the issue,
install new wiper blades.
Note: If you switch on the autolamps
feature in conjunction with autowipers, your
low beam headlamps will turn on
automatically when the rain sensor turns on
the windshield wipers to a normal wipe
speed.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note: Do not operate the washers when
the washer reservoir is empty. This may
cause the washer pump to overheat. To operate the washers and spray the
windshield, pull the lever toward you.

When the daytime running lamps are
switched on in the information display and
you switch the ignition to the on position
with the lighting control in the autolamps
position, the daytime running lamps turn
on whenever the headlamps are off.
The other lighting control switch positions
do not activate the daytime running lamps

Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is
left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to
the fuel pump symbol indicates on which
side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is
located.
The needle should move toward F when
you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points
to E after adding fuel, this indicates your
vehicle needs service soon.
After refueling some variability in needle
position is normal:
•
It may take a short time for the needle
to reach F after leaving the gas station.
This is normal and depends upon the
slope of pavement at the gas station.
• The fuel amount dispensed into the
tank is a little less or more than the
gauge indicated. This is normal and
depends upon the slope of pavement
at the gas station.
• If the gas station nozzle shuts off
before the tank is full, try a different
gas pump nozzle. Low Fuel Reminder
Vehicles with no distance-to-empty
display
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuel
gauge needle is at 1/16th.
Vehicles equipped with distance-to-
empty display
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuel
gauge needle is at 1/16th or about 35 miles
(56km) to empty, whichever occurs first.
Variations:
Note: The low fuel warning and distance-to-empty warning can appear at different fuel
gauge positions depending on fuel economy conditions. This variation is normal. Distance-to-empty

Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap while the engine is running or hot. Indicates engine coolant temperature. At
normal operating temperature, the level
indicator will be in the normal range. If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds the
normal range, stop your vehicle as soon as
safely possible, switch off the engine and
let it cool.
