The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with the
multifunction lever. Wiper delay position one is the least
sensitive, and wiper delay position two is the most sensi-
tive. Place the wiper switch in the O (off) position when not
using the system.
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 wind-
shield.
• Use of Rain-X or products containing wax or silicone
may reduce Rain Sensing performance.
• The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and off using
the Uconnect System, refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information.
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 Sens-
ing system will not operate if the NEUTRAL gear is
selected in any speed 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 conditions (mentioned previously) exist.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on the wind-
shield wiper/washer lever on the right side of the steering
column. The rear wiper has different operation modes:
• Intermittent mode
• In synchronous mode (at half speed of the front window
wiper) when the front window wiper is operating.
• Continuous mode
