NOTE:
The brightness of the Uconnect touchscreen cannot be
adjusted when the instrument panel dimmer control is
rotated to the upper most detent, even when Display
Mode is set to Auto within the Uconnect Settings.
When Display Mode is set to Manual, the brightness of
the Uconnect touchscreen will adjust to the set bright-
ness (1 - 6) when the headlights are either on or off. For
more information on these Uconnect Settings, see
page 165.
WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS
The windshield wiper/washer controls are located on
the multifunction lever on the left side of the steering
column. The front wipers are operated by rotating a
switch, located on the end of the lever.
WINDSHIELD WIPER OPERATION
Rotate the end of the lever upward, to the first detent
past the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper
operation. Rotate the end of the lever upward to the
second detent past the intermittent settings for high-
speed wiper operation.
Intermittent Wipers
The intermittent feature of this system was designed for
use when weather conditions make a single wiping
cycle, with a variable pause between cycles, desirable.
For maximum delay between cycles, rotate the control
knob upward to the first detent.
The delay interval decreases as you rotate the knob
until it enters the low continual speed position. The
delay can be regulated from a maximum of about
18 seconds between cycles, to a cycle every one sec-
ond. The delay intervals will double in duration when
the vehicle speed is 10 mph (16 km/h) or less.
Windshield Washers
To use the windshield washer, push the washer knob,
located on the end of the multifunction lever, inward to
the second detent. Washer fluid will be sprayed and the
wipers will operate for two to three cycles after the
washer knob is released from this position.
If the washer knob is pushed while in the delay range, the
wipers will operate for several seconds after the washer
knob is released. It will then resume the intermittent inter-
val previously selected. If the washer knob is pushed while
in the off position, the wipers will turn on and cycle approxi-
mately three times after the washer knob is released.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer system
in cold weather, select a solution or mixture that meets
or exceeds the temperature range of your climate. This
rating information can be found on most washer fluid
containers.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could
lead to a collision. You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the windshield
during freezing weather, warm the windshield with the
defroster before and during windshield washer use.
Mist
When a single wipe to clear off road mist or spray from
a passing vehicle is needed, push the washer knob,
located on the end of the multifunction lever, inward to
the first detent and release. The wipers will cycle one
time and automatically shut off.
NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the washer pump;
therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on the wind-
shield. The washer function must be used in order to
spray the windshield with washer fluid.
For information on wiper care and replacement, see
page 295.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS —
IF EQUIPPED
This feature senses rain or snowfall on the windshield
and automatically activates the wipers. Rotate the end
of the multifunction lever to one of five detent positions
to activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with the mul-
tifunction lever. Wiper delay position 1 is the least sensi-
tive, and wiper delay position 5 is the most sensitive. Posi-
tion 3 should be used for normal rain conditions. Positions
1 and 2 can be used if the driver desires less wiper sensi-
tivity. Positions 4 and 5 can be used if the driver desires
more sensitivity. Place the wiper switch in the O (off) posi-
tion when not using the system.
