Wiper Parking
If the ignition is turned off while the wipers
are on LO, HI, or AUTO with Rainsense
turned off, they will immediately stop.
If the windscreen wiper lever is then moved
to OFF before the driver door is opened or
within 10 minutes, the wipers will restart
and move to the base of the windscreen.
If the ignition is turned off while the wipers
are performing wipes due to windscreen
washing or Rainsense, the wipers continue
to run until they reach the base of the
windscreen.
Rainsense
If Rainsense is turned on, a sensor near the
top centre of the windscreen detects the
amount of water on the windscreen and
controls the frequency of the windscreen
wiper based on the current sensitivity
setting.
Keep this area of the windscreen clear of
debris to allow for best system performance.
AUTO :
Move the windscreen wiper stalk to
AUTO. Turn the band on the wiper stalk to
adjust the sensitivity.
.
Turn the band up for more sensitivity to
moisture.
.
Turn the band down for less sensitivity to
moisture.
.
Move the windscreen wiper lever out of
the AUTO position to deactivate
Rainsense.
To turn the Rainsense feature on or off,
select Settings > Vehicle > Comfort and
Convenience > Rainsense Wipers > Select ON
or OFF.
Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash, move
the windscreen wiper lever to OFF. This
disables the automatic Rainsense windscreen
wipers.
With Rainsense, if the transmission is in
N (Neutral) and the vehicle speed is very
slow, the wipers will automatically stop at
the base of the windscreen.
The wiper operations return to normal when
the transmission is no longer in N (Neutral)
or the vehicle speed has increased.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear window wiper/washer controls are
on the end of the windscreen wiper lever.
Turn the controls to adjust the setting.
