Wipe Parking

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 changed to LOCK/
OFF while the wipers are performing
wipes due to windshield washing or
Rainsense, the wipers continue to
run until they reach the base of the
windshield.
Rainsense

sensor located near the top center
of the windshield detects the
amount of water on the windshield

Keep this area of the windshield
clear of debris to allow for best
system performance.
