INT: (Intermittent Wipes): Move
the lever up to INT for intermittent
wipes, then turn the
up for more frequent wipes or down
for less frequent wipes.

Clear snow and ice from the wiper
blades and windscreen before using
them. If frozen to the windscreen,
carefully loosen or thaw them.
Damaged blades should be
replaced. See Wiper Blade
Replacement on page 10 22.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are on LO, HI, or INT, they
will immediately stop.
If the windscreen 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 windscreen.
INT band
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windscreen washing, the wipers
continue to run until they reach the
base of the windscreen.
Rainsense
For vehicles with Rainsense, a
sensor near the top centre of the
windscreen detects the amount of
water on the windscreen and
controls the frequency of the
windscreen wiper.
Keep this area of the windscreen
clear of debris to allow for best
system performance.
INT (Rainsense Wipe Sensitivity
Control): Move the windscreen
wiper stalk to INT. Turn the
band on the wiper stalk to adjust the
sensitivity.
Turn the band up for more
sensitivity to moisture.
Turn the band down for less
sensitivity to moisture.
Move the windscreen wiper lever
out of the INT position to
deactivate Rainsense.
Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash,
move the windscreen wiper lever to
OFF. This disables the automatic
Rainsense windscreen wipers.
