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 igni

tion is first placed in the ON position, when the
vehicle is stationary and the outside tempera

ture is below 32°F (0°C), unless the wiper
control on the windshield wiper 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 windshield wiper 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.

equipped with the Remote Start system, Rain

vehicle is in the Remote Start mode. Once the
operator is in the vehicle and has placed the
ignition switch in the ON/RUN position, rain

Rear Window 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 Window 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.
