AUTOWIPERS
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before you
switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers off before entering a car wash.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. If that does not resolve the
issue, install new wiper blades.
Note: If you switch autolamps and
autowipers on, the headlamps automatically
turn on when the windshield wipers
continuously operate.
Wet or winter driving conditions with ice,
snow or salty road mist can cause
inconsistent and unexpected wiping or
smearing.

Use the rotary control to adjust the sensitivity
of the autowipers. When you select low
sensitivity, the wipers operate when the
sensor detects a large amount of water on
the windshield. When you select high
sensitivity, the wipers operate when the
sensor detects a small amount of water on
the windshield.
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.
In these conditions, you can do the following:
Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on the
windshield.
Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
Switch autowipers off.
Autowipers Settings
Autowipers default to on and remain on until
you switch them off in the information
display. When you switch off autowipers, the
wipers operate in intermittent mode. See
General Information (page 120).
Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
The rain sensing feature will not operate
when you place the vehicle in RUN position,
the vehicle is stationary and the outside
temperature is below 32°F (0°C). You can
manually switch on the wipers by adjusting
the rain sensor sensitivity or adjusting the
wiper speed.
This prevents damage to the wipers from ice
and snow on the windshield.
