RAINSENSE™ II
WINDSHIELD WIPERS
The Rainsense II windshield wipers
use a sensor to automatically operate
the wipers when needed, depending
on driving conditions and the
sensitivity setting. If the system is left
on for long periods, an occasional
wipe may occur without any
moisture on the windshield to
indicate the system is activated.
The headlamps also will be turned on
automatically when the Rainsense
wipers are active if the exterior lamp
control switch is in the AUTO
position.
