Rain Sensing Wipers — If Equipped - Chrysler 2014 Grand Cherokee SRT Owner's Manual

Mist Control
Rain Sensing Wipers — If Equipped
This feature senses moisture on the windshield
and automatically activates the wipers for the
driver. The feature is especially useful for road
splash or overspray from the windshield wash-
ers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of the
multifunction lever to one of five settings to
activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted
with the multifunction lever. Wiper delay posi-
tion 1 is the least sensitive, and wiper delay
position 4 is the most sensitive. Setting 3 should
be used for normal rain conditions. Settings 1
1382968-en-2014_GRAND_CHEROKEE_SRT_EE+14WK742-126-ENG-AA/DIV_Owners_Manual_v1
and 2 can be used if the driver desires less
wiper sensitivity. Setting 4 can be used if the
driver desires more sensitivity. Place the wiper
switch in the 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 func-
tion 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 Sensing
performance.
• A customer programmable feature in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
allows the Rain Sensing feature to be turned
off. Refer to "Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer-
Programmable Features)" in "Understanding
Your Instrument Panel" for further informa-
tion.

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
ignition 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 temperature is
greater than 32°F (0°C).
• Transmission In NEUTRAL Position —
When the ignition is ON, and the transmis-
sion 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 shift lever
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 RUN position, rain sensing
wiper operation can resume, if it has been
selected, and no other inhibit conditions (men-
tioned previously) exist.
