Windshield Wiper/Washer - Cadillac LYRIQ 2023 Owner's Manual

Windshield Wiper/Washer

This vehicle is equipped with Rainsense and
a sensor near the top center of the
windshield detects the amount of water on
the windshield and controls the frequency of
the windshield wiper based on the current
sensitivity setting.
Keep this area of the windshield clear of
debris to allow for best system performance.
Base Windshield/Washer Lever Shown
With the vehicle on, move the windshield
wiper lever to select the wiper speed.
OFF : Use to turn the wipers off.
LO : Use for slow wipes.
HI : Use for fast wipes.
Turn the band to select the frequency of
intermittent wipes between OFF and LO.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper blades
and windshield before using them. If frozen
to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw
them. Damaged blades should be replaced.
See Wiper Blade Replacement 0 258.
Warning
In freezing weather, do not use the
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
Warning
Before driving the vehicle, always clear
snow and ice from the hood, windshield,
washer nozzles, roof, and rear of the
vehicle, including all lamps and windows.
Reduced visibility from snow and ice
buildup could lead to a crash.
Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash, move
the windshield wiper lever to OFF. This
disables the automatic Rainsense windshield
wipers.
Instruments and Controls
With Rainsense, if the vehicle is in
N (Neutral) and the speed is very slow, the
wipers will automatically stop at the base of
the windshield.
The wiper operations return to normal when
the vehicle is no longer in N (Neutral) or the
vehicle speed has increased.
Windshield Washer

windshield wiper lever once to spray washer
fluid and activate the wipers.
|

windshield wiper lever twice to spray
washer fluid and activate the wipers. When
the button is released, additional wipes may
occur depending on how long the windshield
washer had been activated. See Washer
