The Rain Sensing system has protective features for the wiper blades and arms. It will not operate
under the following conditions:
• Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit — The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when the
ignition is first switched ON, when the vehicle is stationary and the outside temperature is
below 32°F (0°C), unless the wiper control on the multifunction lever is moved, the vehicle
speed becomes greater than 3 mph (5 km/h) or the outside temperature rises above freezing.
• Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when the ignition is ON,
when the transmission gear selector is in the NEUTRAL position and the vehicle speed is less
than 3 mph (5 km/h), unless the wiper control on the multifunction lever is moved, the vehicle
speed is greater than 3 mph (5 km/h) or the gear selector is moved out of the NEUTRAL
position.
• Remote Start Mode Inhibit — On vehicles equipped with Remote Starting system, Rain
Sensing wipers are not operational when the vehicle is in the remote start mode. Once the
operator is in the vehicle and has placed the ignition switch in the RUN position, rain sensing
wiper operation can resume, if it has been selected, and no other inhibit conditions (mentioned
previously) exist.
Rear Wiper And Washer
Rear Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the windshield wiper lever center ring upwards to operate one of two modes for the rear
window wiper:
• First detent — intermittent mode.
• Second detent — continuous mode.
Rear Windshield Washer Operation
Pushing the windshield wiper lever forward activates the rear window washer. If the lever is pushed
while on the intermittent setting, the wipers will turn on and operate for several wipe cycles after
the lever is released, and then resume the intermittent interval previously selected. If the lever is
pushed while the wipers are in the off position, the wipers will operate several wipe cycles, then
turn off.
