If the windshield 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 windshield.
If the ignition is turned OFF while
the wipers are performing wipes due
to windshield washing or Rainsense
wipes, the wipers continue to run
until they reach the base of the
windshield.
Rainsense
A sensor detects the amount of
water on the windshield and
controls the frequency of the
windshield wiper.

lever to INT. Turn the

Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
If equipped with wiper arm assembly
protection, when using an automatic
car wash, move the windshield
wiper lever to OFF. This disables
the automatic Rainsense windshield
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
windshield.
The wiper operations return to
normal when the transmission is no
longer in N (Neutral) or the vehicle
speed has increased.

washer fluid and activate the wipers.
The wipers will continue until the

additional wipes may occur
depending on how long the
windshield washer had been
activated. See
for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.

In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.

display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna,
StabiliTrak
