Rainsense™ Ii Wipers - Chevrolet Suburban 2007 Owner's Manual

Rainsense™ II Wipers
If your vehicle has Rainsense™ II windshield
wipers, the moisture sensor is located next to the
inside rearview mirror and is mounted on the
windshield. When active, these wipers are able to
detect moisture on the windshield and
automatically turn on the wipers.
To turn on the Rainsense™ feature, the wipers
must be set to one of the five delay settings on the
multifunction lever. Each of the five settings
adjusts the sensitivity of the rainsensor.
Since different drivers have different setting
preferences, it is recommended that the mid-range
setting (position 3) be used initially. For more
wipes, select the higher settings; for fewer wipes,
select the lower settings located closer to the
off position on the multifunction lever.
The rainsensor will automatically control the
frequency of the wipes from the off setting to the
high speed setting according to the weather
conditions. The wipers can be left in a rainsense
mode even when it is not raining.
When Rainsense™ II is active, the headlamps will
turn on automatically after approximately eight
wipes. The headlamps will turn off if the wiper
switch is set to the delay position, and there have
been no wipes for approximately three minutes
or it has become light enough outside. If it is dark
outside, the headlamps will remain on.
Notice: Going through an automatic car wash
with the wipers on can damage them. Turn
the wipers off when going through an
automatic car wash.
