GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 45
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 through Uconnect Settings
Ú page 139.
The Rain Sensing system has protection
features for the wiper blades and arms, and will
not operate under the following conditions:
Change In Ignition Position — If the vehicle is
in Rain Sensing mode and the ignition is
cycled from OFF to ON, the auto wiper will be
suppressed until vehicle speed is greater
than 3 mph (5 km/h), or the wiper switch is
moved out of and back into the Intermittent
wipe position.
Transmission In NEUTRAL Position — The
Rain Sensing system will not operate if the
NEUTRAL gear is selected at speeds of
3 mph (5 km/h) or less unless the wiper
switch is moved or the gear selector is moved
out of NEUTRAL.
Remote Start Mode Inhibit — On vehicles
equipped with Remote Starting system, Rain
Sensing wipers are not operational when the
vehicle is in the remote start mode. Once the
operator is in the vehicle and has placed the
ignition switch in the ON/RUN position, Rain
Sensing wiper operation can resume, if it has
been selected, and no other inhibit condi-
tions (mentioned previously) exist.
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.
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on
the windshield wiper/washer lever on the right
side of the steering column. The rear wiper has
different operation modes:
Intermittent mode
Synchronous mode (at half speed of the front
window wiper) when the front window wiper
is operating
Continuous mode
Vehicle in REVERSE: If the front wiper is
active and the REVERSE gear is selected, the
wiper will turn on for one wipe
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.
To use the washer, push the lever
forward and hold while spray is
desired. If the lever 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 20 to 30 seconds.
Once the lever is released the pump will resume
normal operation.
