Rain Sensor
The Rain Sensor feature senses moisture
on the windshield and automatically
activates the wipers for the driver. The
feature is especially useful for road
splash or over spray from the windshield
washers of the vehicle ahead.
Activation/Deactivation
Rotating the wiper switch to position
or activates the rain sensor.
The activation of the rain sensor system
is done by tapping the wiper stalk
upwards while the switch is in the
or
position.
To deactivate the system, use the wiper
switch or cycle the ignition to STOP
mode.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
Shifting the vehicle into REVERSE with
the windshield wiper operating, activates
a single cycle of the rear window wiper.
Activation of the rear window
wiper/washer can be done by moving the
stalk to one of the following positions:
Pushing the stalk towards the
instrument panel activates the rear
window washer (a brief push activates
one washing cycle, keeping the stalk
pushed washes continuously until the
stalk is released).
Pushing the stalk downward
activates/deactivates continuous rear
wiper operation.
HEADLAMP WASHERS — IF
EQUIPPED
The windshield wiper stalk operates the
headlight washers when the ignition is in
the ON position and the headlights are
turned on. The windshield wiper stalk is
located on the right side of the steering
column. To use the headlight washers, pull
the stalk toward you and release it. The
headlight washers will spray a timed
high-pressure spray of washer fluid onto
each headlight lens. In addition, the
windshield washers will spray the
windshield and the windshield wipers will
cycle.
Note:
The headlight washers work on every
tenth wash cycle request.
