The Rainsense system can be activated by turning the
wiper stalk to one of the five sensitivity levels within the
AUTO DELAY area. The AUTO DELAY position closest
to OFF is the lowest sensitivity setting. This allows more
water to collect on the windshield between wipes. Turning
the stalk away from you to the other AUTO DELAY
settings increases the sensitivity of the system and
frequency of wipes. A single wipe will occur each time
you turn the wiper stalk to a higher sensitivity level. An
initial wipe occurs when you turn the ignition on as a
reminder that Rainsense is active. The windshield wipers
also remain in a "high park" position (the wipers will stop
on the windshield rather than their fully
even when the ignition is turned off.

The Rainsense wipers operate in a delay mode as well as
a continuous low or high speed depending on the
amount of moisture and the sensitivity level. The MIST
and "wash" cycles operate as normal and are not
affected by the Rainsense function.
The wipers must be turned off when going
through a car wash to avoid damage.
It is important to note that the Rainsense wiping feature
(AUTO DELAY) can be overridden at any time by
manually changing the wiper control to LO or HI speed.
Note: If you ever need to replace the windshield, make
sure it is Rainsense compatible.
