Rain Sensing Wipers - If Equipped; Climate Controls - Dodge RAM 1500 2019 User Manual

Rain Sensing Wipers — If
Equipped
This feature senses moisture on the wind-
shield and automatically activates the wipers
for the driver. The feature is especially useful
for road splash or overspray from the wind-
shield washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate
the end of the multifunction lever to one of
five settings to activate this feature.
NOTE:
This feature can be programmed through the
Uconnect system. Refer to "Uconnect Set-
tings" in "Multimedia" in the Owner's
Manual for further information.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted
with the multifunction lever. Wiper delay po-
sition 1 is the least sensitive, and wiper delay
position 5 is the most sensitive. Position
3 should be used for normal rain conditions.
Positions 1 and 2 can be used if the driver
desires less wiper sensitivity. Positions 4 and
5 can be used if the driver desires more
sensitivity. 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 position.
• The Rain Sensing feature may not function
properly when ice, or dried salt water is
present on the windshield.
• Use of Rain-X or products containing wax or
silicone may reduce Rain
performance.
The Rain Sensing system has protection fea-
tures for the wiper blades and arms, and will
not operate under the following conditions:
• Low Ambient Temperature — When the igni-
tion is first turned ON, the Rain Sensing
system will not operate until the wiper
switch is moved, vehicle speed is greater
than 0 mph (0 km/h), or the outside tem-
perature is greater than 32°F (0°C).
• Transmission In NEUTRAL Position — When
the ignition is ON, and the transmission is
in the NEUTRAL position, the Rain Sensing
system will not operate until the wiper
switch is moved, vehicle speed is greater
than 5 mph (8 km/h), or the gear selector is
moved out of the NEUTRAL position.
• Remote Start Mode Inhibit — On vehicles
equipped with Remote Starting system,
Rain Sensing wipers are not operational
when the vehicle is in the remote start
mode. Once the operator is in the vehicle
and has placed the ignition switch in the
Sensing
RUN position, Rain Sensing wiper opera-
tion can resume, if it has been selected,
and no other inhibit conditions (mentioned
previously) exist.
