WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND
WASHERS
The windshield wiper/washer control lever is
located on the right side of the steering column.
The front wipers are operated by rotating a
switch, located at the end of the lever.
Refer to “Rear Window Wiper/Washer” in
this section for further information on using
the rear window wiper/washer.Windshield Wiper/Washer Lever
Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the end of the lever upward to the
second detent past the intermittent settings
for low-speed wiper operation. Rotate the end of the lever upward to the third detent
past the intermittent settings for high-speed
wiper operation.
NOTE:
Do not operate the windshield wipers with
the blades lifted from the windshield.
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 lever to the first detent
position for one of four intermittent settings.
The delay cycle can be set anywhere between
1 to 18 seconds.
NOTE:
The wiper delay times depend on vehicle
speed. If the vehicle is moving less than
10 mph (16 km/h), delay times will be
doubled.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever toward you
and hold while spray is desired. If the lever
is pulled while in the delay range, the wiper
will start and continue to operate for two or
three wipe cycles after the lever is released.
Then, the intermittent interval previously
selected will resume.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position,
the wipers will operate for two or three wipe
cycles. Then, the wipers will turn off.
CAUTION!
In cold weather, always turn off the wiper
switch and allow the wipers to return to
the park position before turning off the
engine. If the wiper switch is left on and
the wipers freeze to the windshield,
damage to the wiper motor may occur
when the vehicle is restarted.
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
windshield during freezing weather, warm
the windshield with the defroster before
and during windshield washer use.

Mist Feature
Push upward on the wiper lever to activate a
single wipe to clear off road mist or spray
from a passing vehicle. As long as the lever
is held up, the wipers will continue to
operate.
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 Window Wiper/Washer — If Equipped
A rotary switch on the center portion of the
windshield wiper/washer lever controls the
operation of the rear wiper/washer function.Rear Wiper/Washer Control
Rotate the switch upward to the first detent
position for intermittent operation and to the
second detent for continuous rear wiper
operation. Push the wiper lever toward the instrument
panel to activate the rear washer. The washer
pump and wiper will continue to operate as
long as the lever is held.
If the rear wiper is operating when the igni
-
tion is placed in the OFF position, the wiper
will automatically return to the “park” posi -
tion. When the vehicle is restarted, the wiper
will resume function at whichever position
the switch is set at.
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.

SAFETY
86
Towing With HSA
HSA will also provide assistance to mitigate
roll back while towing a trailer.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
Ready Alert Braking (RAB) may reduce the
time required to reach full braking during
emergency braking situations. It anticipates
when an emergency braking situation may
occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is
released by the driver. The Electronic Brake
Control (EBC) system will prepare the brake
system for a panic stop.
Rain Brake Support (RBS)
Rain Brake Support (RBS) may improve
braking performance in wet conditions. It
will periodically apply a small amount of
brake pressure to remove any water buildup
on the front brake rotors. It functions when
the windshield wipers are in LO or HI speed.
When RBS is active, there is no notification
to the driver and no driver interaction is
required.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC)
Trailer Sway Control (TSC) uses sensors in
the vehicle to recognize an excessively
swaying trailer and will take the appropriate
actions to attempt to stop the sway. TSC will
become active automatically once an exces-
sively swaying trailer is recognized.
NOTE:
TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying.
Always use caution when towing a trailer and
follow the trailer tongue weight recommenda-
tions. Refer to “Trailer Towing” in “Starting
And Operating” for further information.
When TSC is functioning, the “ESC Activa -
tion/Malfunction Indicator Light” will flash,
the engine power may be reduced and you
may feel the brakes being applied to indi -
vidual wheels to attempt to stop the trailer
from swaying. TSC is disabled when the ESC
system is in the “Partial Off” or “Full Off”
modes.
WARNING!
If you use a trailer brake controller with
your trailer, the trailer brakes may be
activated and deactivated with the brake
switch. If so, there may not be enough
brake pressure to hold both the vehicle
and the trailer on a hill when the brake
pedal is released. In order to avoid
rolling down an incline while resuming
acceleration, manually activate the
trailer brake or apply more vehicle brake
pressure prior to releasing the brake
pedal.
HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply
the parking brake fully when exiting your
vehicle. Also, be certain to place the
transmission in PARK (P).
Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision or serious personal
injury. WARNING!
If TSC activates while driving, slow the
vehicle down, stop at the nearest safe
location, and adjust the trailer load to
eliminate trailer sway.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
226
DEALER SERVICE
An authorized dealer has the qualified
service personnel, special tools, and equip-
ment to perform all service operations in an
expert manner. Service Manuals are avail -
able which include detailed service informa -
tion for your vehicle. Refer to these Service
Manuals before attempting any procedure
yourself.
NOTE:
Intentional tampering with emissions control
systems may void your warranty and could
result in civil penalties being assessed
against you.
Windshield Wiper Blades
Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades
and the windshield periodically with a
sponge or soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive
cleaner. This will remove accumulations of
salt or road film.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long
periods may cause deterioration of the wiper
blades. Always use washer fluid when using
the wipers to remove salt or dirt from a dry
windshield.
Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost
or ice from the windshield. Keep the blade
rubber out of contact with petroleum prod -
ucts such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
NOTE:
Life expectancy of wiper blades varies
depending on geographical area and
frequency of use. Poor performance of
blades may be present with chattering,
marks, water lines or wet spots. If any of
these conditions are present, clean the wiper
blades or replace as necessary. The wiper blades and wiper arms should be
inspected periodically, not just when wiper
performance problems are experienced. This
inspection should include the following
points:
Wear or uneven edges
Foreign material
Hardening or cracking
Deformation or fatigue
If a wiper blade or wiper arm is damaged,
replace the affected wiper arm or blade with
a new unit. Do not attempt to repair a wiper
arm or blade that is damaged.
WARNING!
You can be badly injured working on or
around a motor vehicle. Only do service
work for which you have the knowledge
and the proper equipment. If you have any
doubt about your ability to perform a
service job, take your vehicle to a
competent mechanic.
