The Rainsense system can be activated by turning the
wiper stalk to one of the five sensitivity levels within the
AUTO DELAY
area.
The
AUTO
DELAY position
closest to
OW
is
the lowest sensitivity setting.
This
allows more water to collect on the windshield between
wipes. Rotating the stalk away from you to the other
AUTO
DELAY settings increases the sensitivity
of
the
system and frequency
of
wipes.
A
single wipe will occur
each time you
turn
the wiper stalk to a higher sensitivity
level.
An
initial wipe occurs when you
turn
the ignition
on as a reminder that Rainsense
is
active. The
windshield wipers also remain in a “high
park”
position,
even when
the
ignition
is
turned
off.
The
Rainsense wipers operate
in
a
delay mode as well
as
a
continuous low or
high
speed depending on the amount
of
moisture and the sensitivity level. The
MIST
and
“wash” cycles operate as normal and
are
not affected
by the Rainsense hnction.
It
is
important
to
note that the Rainsense wiping feature
(AUTO
DELAY) can
be
overridden at any time
by
manually changing the wiper control
to
EO
or
HI
speed.
Note that
if
you ever need
to
replace the windshield,
make sure it
is
Rainsense compatible.

In
freezing weather, don’t use
your
washer until
the windshield
is
warmed,
Otherwise the washer
fluid
can
form ice
on
the windshield, blocking
your vision,
Press and hold
the
PUSH
paddle
to
wash the windshield.
Release the paddle when you have enough fluid.
The
wipers will clear the windshield and either stop
or
return
to your preset speed.
LOW WASHER
FLUID
will be displayed on the
DIC
when
the
washer fluid reaches
a
low
level.
Driving without washer fluid can be dangerous.
A
bad
mud splash can block your vision and
you
could hit
another vehicle or
go
off
the road. Check the washer
fluid level often.
