the operator changes it.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote
start, the heated seats can be programmed to
come on during a remote start.

The Rain Sensing system has protection fea-
tures for the wiper blades and arms, and will
not operate under the following conditions:
•Low Ambient Temperature— When the igni-
tion is first turned ON, the Rain Sensing
system will not operate until the wiper
switch is moved, vehicle speed is greater
than 3 mph (5 km/h), or the outside tem-
perature is greater than 32°F (0°C).
•Transmission In NEUTRAL Position— When
the ignition is ON, and the automatic trans-
mission is in the NEUTRAL position, the
Rain Sensing system will not operate until
the wiper switch is moved, vehicle speed is
greater than 3 mph (5 km/h), or the gear
selector is moved out of the NEUTRAL
position.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on
the multifunction lever on the left side of the
steering column. The rear wiper/washer is
operated by rotating a switch, located at the
middle of the lever.Rotate the center portion of the lever upward
to the first detent for intermittent operation
and to the second detent for continuous rear
wiper operation.
Rotating the center portion upward once
more will activate the washer pump which
will continue to operate as long as the switch
is held. Upon release of the switch, the wip-
ers will resume the continuous rear wiper
operation. When this rotary control is in the
OFF position, rotating it downward will acti-
vate the rear washer pump which will con-
tinue to operate as long as the switch is held.
Once the switch is released it will return to
the OFF position and the wipers will cycle
several times before returning to the parked
position.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop if
the switch is held for more than 20 seconds.
Once the switch is released the pump will
resume normal operation.
If the rear wiper is operating when the igni-
tion is turned OFF, the wiper will automati-
cally return to the “park” position.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Climate Control System allows you to
regulate the temperature, air flow, and direc-
tion of air circulating throughout the vehicle.
The controls are located on the touchscreen
(if equipped) and on the instrument panel
below the radio.

you to see an on-screen image of the rear
surroundings of your vehicle whenever the
gear selector is put into REVERSE. The im-
age will be displayed on the Navigation/
Multimedia radio display screen along with a
caution note to “check entire surroundings”
across the top of the screen. After five sec-
onds this note will disappear. The ParkView
camera is located on the rear of the vehicle

shifted into PARK, the vehicle’s ignition is
cycled to the OFF position, or the user
presses image defeat [X] to exit out of the
camera video display.

on the image to illustrate the width of the
vehicle and its projected backup path based
on the steering wheel position. A dashed
center line overlay indicates the center of the
vehicle to assist with parking or aligning to a
hitch/receiver. Different colored zones indi-
cate the distance to the rear of the vehicle.
The following table shows the approximate
distances for each zone:
