The sensitivity of the system can be
adjusted with the multifunction lever.
Wiper delay position 1 is the least sen-
sitive, and wiper delay position 4 is the
most sensitive. Setting 3 should be used
for normal rain conditions. Settings 1
and 2 can be used if the driver desires
less wiper sensitivity. Settings 4 can be
used if the driver desires more sensitiv-
ity. The rain sense wipers will auto-
matically change between an intermit-
tent wipe, slow wipe and a fast wipe
depending on the amount of moisture
that is sensed on the windshield. Place
the wiper switch in the OFF position
when not using the system.The Rain Sensing feature can be
turned on and off using the Uconnect
Touch™ System, refer to “Uconnect
Touch™ Settings” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will not
operate when the wiper speed is
in the low or high position.
 The Rain Sensing feature maynot function properly when ice
or dried salt water is present on
the windshield.
 The use of products containing wax or silicone may reduce rain
sensor performance.
The Rain Sensing system has protec-
tive 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
placed in the RUN position, the ve-
hicle is stationary and the outside
temperature is below 0°C, unless
the wiper control on the multifunc-
tion lever is moved, the vehicle
speed becomes greater than 0 km/h
or the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
 Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain
Sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is placed in the
RUN position, the transmission
shift lever is in the NEUTRAL po-
sition and the vehicle speed is less than 8 km/h, unless the wiper con-
trol on the multifunction lever is
moved or the shift lever is moved
out of the NEUTRAL position.
HEADLIGHT WASHERS
The multifunction lever operates the
headlight washers when the ignition
switch is in the ON position and the
headlights are turned on. The multi-
function lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
To use the headlight washers, push
the multifunction lever inward (to-
ward the steering column) to the sec-
ond detent and release it. The head-
light washers will spray a timed high-
pressure spray of washer fluid onto
each headlight lens. In addition, the

WARNING (for versions/
markets, where provided)
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
warns the driver of a potential colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you
and prompts the driver to take action
in order to avoid the collision.
FCW monitors the information from
the forward looking sensor as well
as the Electronic Brake Controller
(EBC), wheel speed sensors, i.e., to
calculate a probable rear-end colli-
sion. When the system determines
that a rear-end collision is probable a
warning message (both audible and
visual) will be displayed on the EVIC.
When the system determines a colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you is
no longer probable, the warning mes-
sage will be deactivated.
NOTE: The minimum speed for
FCW activation is 16 km/h.
132

WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
is not intended to avoid a collision
on its own, nor can FCW detect
every type of potential collision.
The driver has the responsibility to
avoid a collision by controlling the
vehicle via braking and steering.
Failure to follow this warning could
lead to serious injury or death.
Changing FCW StatusThe FCW feature can be set to far, set
to near or turned off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel”
for further information. The FCW Sta-
tus Off, Near or Far will be displayed
in the Uconnect Touch™ display.The default status of FCW is the
“Far” setting, this allows the system
to warn you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you when
you are farther away. This gives you
the most reaction time. Changing the FCW status to the
“Near” setting, allows the system to
warn you of a possible collision with
the vehicle in front of you when you
are much closer. This setting provides
less reaction time than the “Far” set-
ting, which allows for a more dynamic
driving experience.
Changing the FCW status to “Off”
prevents the system from warning you
of a possible collision with the vehicle
in front of you.
NOTE:

In the “Off” setting FCW OFF will
be displayed on the Uconnect
Touch™ display.The system will retain the last
setting selected by the driver after
ignition shut down.FCW will not react to irrelevant
objects such as overhead objects,
ground reflections, objects not in
the path of the car, stationary ob-
jects that are far away, oncoming
traffic, or leading vehicles with
the same or higher rate of speed.
 If the FCW becomes disabled
then a warning will display on
the EVIC screen.
FCW Unavailable Warning
If the system turns off, and the EVIC
displays “ACC/FCW Unavailable,
Service Required”, there may be a
temporary malfunction that limits
FCW functionality. Although the ve-
hicle is still drivable under normal
conditions, FCW will be temporarily
unavailable. If this occurs, try activat-
ing FCW again later, following a key
cycle. If the problem persists, see your
authorized dealer.
