Rainsense™ II Wipers
Your vehicle has Rainsense™ II windshield
wipers. These wipers automatically turn on when
a sensor, mounted next to the inside rearview
mirror, detects moisture on the windshield.
When active, these wipers are able to detect
moisture on the windshield and automatically
turn on the wipers.
To turn on the Rainsense™ feature, the wipers
must be set to one of the five delay settings.
Each of the five settings adjusts the sensitivity
of the rainsensor.
Since different drivers have different setting
preferences, it is recommended that the mid-range
setting, position three, be used initially. For more
wipes, select the higher settings; for fewer
wipes, select the lower settings located closer
to the off position on the multifunction lever.
The rainsensor will automatically control the
frequency of the wipes from off to high speed
according to the weather conditions. The wipers
can be left in a Rainsense™ mode even when
it is not raining.
When Rainsense™ II is active, the headlamps
will turn on automatically after approximately
eight wipes. The headlamps will turn off if the wiper
switch is set to a delay position, and there have
been no wipes for approximately three minutes, or
if the wiper switch is turned to the off position.
If it is dark outside, the headlamps will remain on.
Notice: Going through an automatic car
wash with the wipers on can damage them.
Turn the wipers off when going through
an automatic car wash.
