Rain Sense Wipers (If Equipped)
This system automatically operates the wipers by
monitoring the amount of moisture on the windshield.
There is a sensor that controls the operation of this
feature mounted toward the passenger's side windshield
interior, behind the rearview mirror.
The rain sense system is activated by turning the wiper
band to a position within the DELAY area. You can set
the sensitivity level of the wipers by turning the wiper
band. The closer the wiper band is positioned to LO, the
more sensitive the wipers are to rain. The closer it is
positioned to OFFMIST, the less sensitive the wipers
are to rain.
If the wiper band is left in the DELAY area when the
ignition is turned off, an initial wipe occurs when you
turn the ignition on as a reminder that the rain sense
feature is active.
The rain sense wipers operate in a delay mode as well as
a continuous speed, depending on the amount of
moisture on the windshield and the sensitivity setting.
The MIST and wash cycles operate as normal and are
not effected by the rain sense function.
NOTICE:
To avoid wiper damage when using an automatic
car wash, turn the wiper band to OFF to
disengage the rain sense feature.
It is important to note that the rain sense wiping feature
can be overridden at any time by manually turning the
wiper band to LO or HI speed.
If the windshield on your vehicle ever needs
replacement, make sure that the new windshield is rain
sense compatible.
