windscreen, blocking the blades in ice/snow
conditions). The user can activate the Rain
Sensing Wipers in three ways:
• Moving the level in off position and then in
Intermittent positions.
• One MIST command actuation.
• The vehicle speed exceeds 3 mph (5 km/h)
and the rain sensor detects the presence of
rain.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with automatic trans-
mission, the Rain Sensing Wipers will be-
come inactive even if the lever is in one of the
intermittent positions if the vehicle is placed
in NEUTRAL and the vehicle speed is less
than 3 mph (5 km/h). This prevents damage
to the windshield wipers during an automatic
car wash.
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
present 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
your Owner’s Manual for further
information.
Rear Wiper Operation
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on
the 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
shifted in REVERSE, the rear wiper will per-
form one round up to clean the rear window.
Rotate the center portion of the lever upward
to the first detent for intermittent operation
and to the second detent for continuous rear
wiper operation. If the front wiper is set to
Automatic Mode (on the wiper stalk as well as
“Enabled” through Uconnect settings), plac-
ing 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 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.
If the lever is pushed while the wiper is in the
off position, the wiper 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 30 seconds.
Once the lever is released, the pump will
resume normal operation.
