Tailgate wiper and reverse gearIf the front wipers are on and the transmissionis put into reverse gear, the tailgate wiper will go into intermittent wiping function 1
.
If the tailgate wiper is already in normal wip- ing function, the normal wiping function willcontinue.
Rain sensor*
The rain sensor automatically regulates wiper speed according to the amount of water onthe windshield. The sensitivity of the sensor can be adjusted
by twisting ring (1) up (the wipers will sweep the windshield more frequently) or down (thewipers will sweep the windshield less fre-quently).
Activating the rain sensor:1. Turn the ignition key to at least position I
and put the windshield wiper lever inposition 0.
2. Press button (2), see page 72. > A light in the button will light up to indi-cate that the rain sensor is active.
Deactivating the rain sensor:
• Press button (2), see page 72. or •
Move the windshield wiper lever
down to
another position. Moving the lever up will not deactivate the rain sensor. Doing sowill cause the wipers to sweep the wind-shield until the lever is released, at whichtime the wipers return to rain sensormode.
The rain sensor is also deactivated when the key is removed from the ignition.
CAUTION
The rain sensor should be deactivated when washing the vehicle in an automaticcar wash, etc. If the rain sensor function isleft on, the wipers will start inadvertently inthe car wash and could be damaged.

80* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
These 12 volt sockets can be used to plug in certain accessories such as cellular tele-phones, etc. The ignition key must be in at least position I
for the sockets in the front seat and the optional socket at the rear of the center con-sole to function. The maximum current consumption is 10A (120W) if only one of the 12-volt sockets inthe passenger compartment is in use. If boththe front and rear sockets are used at thesame time, the maximum current consump-tion per socket is 7.5A (90W). 12-volt socket in the cargo compartment Fold down the lid to use the socket. This socket can be used even if the ignition isswitched off.NOTE
• If the 12-volt sockets are used while the engine is not running, there is arisk that the vehicle's battery will bedischarged.
• If the ignition is switched off and adevice drawing more than 0.1 A isconnected to a socket, a battery warn-ing will be displayed in the text win-dow.
• The covers should be kept on whenthe auxiliary sockets are not in use.

The HomeLink 1
Wireless Control System pro-
vides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmittersused to activate devices such as gate opera-tors, garage door openers, entry door locks,security systems, even home lighting. Addi-tional HomeLink information can be found onthe Internet at www.homelink.com or byphoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
WARNING
• If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is nearthe gate or door while it is in motion.
• When programming a garage dooropener, it is advised to park outside ofthe garage.
• Do not use HomeLink with any garagedoor opener that lacks safety stop andreverse features as required by U.S.federal safety standards (this includesany garage door opener model manu-factured before April 1, 1982). Agarage door that cannot detect anobject - signaling the door to stop andreverse - does not meet current U.S.federal safety standards. For moreinformation, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in othervehicles as well as for future HomeLink pro-gramming. It is also suggested that upon thesale of the vehicle, the programmed Home-Link buttons be erased for security purposes.Refer to “Resetting HomeLink Buttons” onpage 91.
Programming HomeLink
NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition to be switched on or be in the “accessories”position for programming and/or operationof HomeLink. It is also recommended thata new battery be placed in the hand-heldtransmitter of the device being pro-grammed to HomeLink for quicker trainingand accurate transmission of the radio-fre-quency signal. The HomeLink buttonsmust be reset first. When this has beencompleted, Homelink is in learning modeso that you can perform programming.
1. Position the end of your hand-held trans-
mitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to pro-gram while keeping the indicator light inview.
2. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLink and hand-held trans-mitter buttons until the HomeLink indica-tor light changes from a slow to a rapidlyblinking light. Now you may release boththe HomeLink and hand-held transmitterbuttons.

1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink
buttons until the indicator light begins to flash.
2. Release both buttons. > HomeLink is now in the training (orlearning) mode and can be pro-grammed at any time beginning with“Programming” - step 1.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button
To program a device to HomeLink using a HomeLink button previously trained, followthese steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink button. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without releasing the Home- Link button, proceed with “Programming”- step 1.

Climate system blower
The climate system blower will be automati- cally switched off when the engine is not run-ning (even if the ignition key is in position I or
II ) to avoid unnecessary battery drain. To
activate the blower, turn the control to thedesired setting. The climate system blower may start auto- matically during a period of up to approxi-mately 50 minutes after the ignition has beenturned off to remove condensation in the A/Cevaporator. It will run for 15 minutes andswitch off automatically.
Passenger compartment blower
Approximately 50 minutes after the ignition is turned off, the blower may come on automati-cally, and run for seven minutes, to removecondensation in the A/C evaporator.
Blower function to reduce battery drain
The climate system's blower functions nor- mally while the engine is running. However, when the engine is switched off (even if the ignition is switched to positions I
or II), the blower control will be automatically
switched off to avoid unnecessary batterydrain. The following points pertain if the ignition ison but the engine in not running:
• To restart the blower, turn the control knob to the setting of your choice.
• After approximately 2 minutes, the blowerspeed will be reduced to avoid batterydrain.
You can reset the blower speed at any time. Please be aware that the system has beendesigned to reduce the blower's speed againafter 2 minutes, until the engine is started. If the battery becomes drained: • LOW BATTERY, FAN IS REDUCED
will
be displayed in the text window in the instrument panel.
• The yellow warning light in the instrumentpanel (see page 58) will also light up.
