Windshield Washer Operation
To use the washer, push on the end of the lever
(toward the steering wheel) and hold while spray
is desired. If the lever is pushed while in the
intermittent setting, the wipers will turn on and
operate for several wipe cycles after the end of
the lever is released, and then resume the inter-
mittent interval previously selected.
If the end of the lever is pushed while the wipers
are in the off position, the wipers will operate for
several wipe cycles, then turn off.
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 re-
sume normal operation.
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
Use the Mist feature when weather conditions
make occasional usage of the wipers necessary.
Rotate the end of the lever downward to the
MIST position and release for a single wiping
cycle.
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.
Rain Sensing Wipers — If Equipped
This feature senses rain or snowfall on the wind-
shield and automatically activates the wipers for
the driver . The feature is especially useful for
road splash or overspray from the windshield
washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of
the multifunction lever to one of four settings to
activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted
with the multifunction lever. Wiper delay posi-
tion one is the least sensitive, and wiper delay
position four is the most sensitive.
NOTE:
Wiper delay position three should be used for
normal rain conditions.
Settings one and two can be used if the driver
desires less wiper sensitivity. Setting four can be
used if the driver desires more sensitivity. Place
the wiper switch in the OFF position when not
using the system.
NOTE:
• The Rain Sensing feature will not operate
when the wiper switch is in the low or high-
speed position.
• The Rain Sensing feature may not function
properly when ice, or dried salt water is pres-
ent on the windshield.
• Use of Rain-X or products containing wax or
silicone may reduce Rain Sensing perfor-
mance.
• The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on
and off using the Uconnect System, refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
