WINDSHIELD WIPERS
Note:
Fully defrost the windshield before you
switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers and vehicle power off before using
an automatic car wash.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. See Checking the Wiper
Blades (page 298). If that does not resolve
the issue, install new wiper blades. See
Changing the Wiper Blades (page 298).
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.
Note: When wiping on dry glass, the wipers
may switch to the next lower operating mode
(low-speed or intermittent). The previous
operation mode may resume after the
windshield becomes wet again. Single wipe.
A
Intermittent wipe.
B
Normal wipe.
C
High-speed wipe.
D
Note: Move to position
O marked on the
wiper lever to switch off. Intermittent Wipe

AUTOWIPERS (If Equipped)
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers and ignition off before using an
automatic car wash.
Autowipers uses a rain sensor located in the
area around the interior mirror. The rain
sensor monitors the amount of moisture on
the windshield and automatically turns the
wipers on. It will adjust the wiper speed by
the amount of moisture that the sensor
detects on the windshield. Highest sensitivity.
A
On.B
Lowest sensitivity.
C
Switch the autowipers on by moving the
wiper lever up to the first position.
Switch the autowipers off by moving the
wiper lever down. Use the rotary control to adjust the sensitivity
of the autowipers. When you select low
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the
sensor detects a large amount of water on
the windshield. When you select high
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the
sensor detects a small amount of water on
the windshield.
The autowipers feature is active and ready
when the wiper lever is in the first position
and selected in the information display. You
can change the autowipers feature to
intermittent wipers through the information
display. See General Information (page 108).
Note:
Check your wiper function in the
information display.
See General
Information (page 108). The autowipers
feature functions only when you select the
menu choice in the information display and
you move the wiper lever up to the first
position. The autowipers feature then
remains on in the information display menu
until you change it to intermittent wipe.

Note:
If you switch autolamps on in
conjunction with autowipers, your low beam
headlamps turn on automatically when the
rain sensor activates the windshield wipers
continuously. See General Information
(page 108).
Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive and 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. In these conditions, 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 by
moving the wiper lever up.
• Switch the autowipers off and switch
intermittent mode on through the
information display.
See General
Information (page 108).
• Switch the autowipers off by moving the
wiper lever down. 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.
See Changing the Wiper
Blades (page 298).
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
you release the lever, the wipers will operate
for a short time.REAR WINDOW WIPER AND
