PERATION
Rotate the windshield wiper knob to one of the first
two detent positions for intermittent settings, the
third detent for low wiper operation and the fourth
for high wiper operation.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the windshield wiper/
washer lever toward the steering wheel to activate.
The wipers will activate automatically for three
cycles after the lever is released, and then resume
the intermittent interval previously selected.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position,
the wipers will operate for three cycles and then
turn off.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield
could lead to a collision. You might not see other
vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden
icing of the windshield during freezing weather,
warm the windshield with the defroster before
and during windshield washer use.
Mist
Use the Mist feature when weather conditions
make occasional usage of the wipers necessary.
Push the lever upward to the MIST position and
release for a single wiping cycle.
NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on
the windshield. The washer function must be used
in order to spray the windshield with washer fluid.

This feature senses moisture on the windshield
and automatically activates the wipers. Rotate the
end of the multifunction lever to one of two detent
positions for intermittent settings to activate this
feature.
NOTE:
If the windshield wiper lever is rotated from the
O (off) position to the first intermittent setting or
from the first intermittent setting to the second
intermittent setting, the wipers will perform an
immediate wipe cycle to clean the windshield.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with
the windshield wiper lever. Wiper delay position
one is the least sensitive, and wiper delay position
two is the most sensitive. Place the wiper switch in
the O (off) position when not using the system.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when
the wiper switch is in the low or high-speed posi-
tion.
The Rain Sensing feature may not function prop-
erly when ice, or dried salt water is present on
the windshield.
Use of products containing wax or silicone may
reduce Rain Sensing performance.
The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and
off using the Uconnect system Ú page 123.
