REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on the
windshield wiper/washer lever on the right side of
the steering column. The rear wiper/washer is
operated by rotating a switch, located at the
middle of the lever.
NOTE:
If the front wiper is moving and the vehicle is
shifte
d in REVERSE, the rear wiper will perform one
round up to clean the rear window.
Rotate the center portion of the lever
upward to the first detent for intermittent
operati
on and to the second detent for
continuous rear wiper operation. If the
front wiper is set to Automatic mode (on the wiper
lever as well as enabled through Uconnect
Settings), placing the rear wiper in an intermittent
position will cause the front and rear wipers to sync
up. Turning the front wipers off will cause the rear
wipers to also stop.
To use the washer, push the lever
forward and hold while spray is desired. If
t
he le
ver is pushed while the wiper is in
the off position, the wiper will operate for
several wipe cycles, then turn off.
If the lever is pushed while in the intermittent
setting, the wiper will turn on and operate for
several wipe cycles after the end of the lever is
released, and then resume the intermittent
interval previously selected.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop if the
switch
is held for more than 30 seconds. Once the
lever is released, the pump will resume normal
operation.
