Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools down.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Your vehicle (STS-V only) is equipped with a
feature that disables the wiper system when the
hood is open and your vehicle is stopped. Opening
the hood will automatically park the wipers if
they are not parked. This prevents the wipers from
interfering with hood operation. Be sure the
hood is not opened when you require the vehicle’s
wipers out of the park position, such as when
changing the wiper blades.
Rainsense™ II Wipers
If your vehicle has this feature, the moisture
sensor is mounted on the interior side of the
windshield behind the rearview mirror. It is used to
automatically operate the wipers by monitoring
the amount of moisture build-up on the windshield.
Wipes occur as needed to clear the windshield
depending on driving conditions and the sensitivity
setting. In light rain or snow, fewer wipes will
occur. In heavy rain or snow, wipes will occur more
frequently. The Rainsense™ wipers operate in adelay mode as well as a continuous low or high
speed as needed. If the system is left on for long
periods of time, occasional wipes may occur
without any moisture on the windshield. This is
normal and indicates that the Rainsense™ system
is activated.
To activate the Rainsense™ system, turn the
wiper band to delay mode and select one of the
four sensitivity levels indicated on the wiper stalk.
The position closest to off is the lowest sensitivity
setting, level one. This allows more rain or snow to
collect on the windshield between wipes. Turning
the wiper band away from you to higher sensitivity
levels increases the sensitivity of the system and
frequency of wipes. The highest sensitivity setting,
level four, is closest to low. A single wipe will occur
each time you turn the wiper stalk to a higher
sensitivity level to indicate that the sensitivity level
has been increased.
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.

IntelliBeam™ Intelligent High-Beam
Headlamp Control System
If your vehicle has this feature, be sure to read
this entire section before using it.
IntelliBeam™ is an enhancement to the vehicle’s
headlamp system. Using a digital light sensor
located on the back of the rearview mirror,
this system turns the high-beam headlamps on
and off according to surrounding traffic conditions.
The IntelliBeam™ system turns the high-beam
headlamps on when it is dark enough, there is no
other traffic present, and the IntelliBeam™
system is enabled.
Turning On and Enabling IntelliBeam™
AUTO3(IntelliBeam™ On/Off):Press
and release the IntelliBeam™ button on the inside
rear view mirror. The IntelliBeam™ indicator on
the mirror turns on. Once the system has
been turned on, it remains on each time the
vehicle is started. Additionally, the IntelliBeam™
system must be enabled.
To enable the IntelliBeam™ System, turn the
exterior lamp control to AUTO, with the turn
signal/multifunction lever in its neutral position.The High-Beam On Light appears on the
instrument panel cluster when the high-beams are
on. SeeHighbeam On Light on page 257. Your
vehicle has variable intensity high-beams.
The high-beam indicator on the instrument panel
cluster comes on as soon as the high-beams
start to come on, and remains on until the
high-beams have completely turned off. All
vehicles that have IntelliBeam™, however, quickly
turn off the high-beams if the system detects
the sudden presence of vehicle lights ahead.
Driving with IntelliBeam™
IntelliBeam™ only activates the high-beams when
driving over 20 mph (32 km/h).
The high-beam headlamps remain on, under the
control of IntelliBeam™, until any of the following
situations occur:
The system detects an approaching vehicle’s
headlamps.
The system detects a preceding vehicle’s
taillamps.
The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
213

The high-beam headlamps are manually
turned on or you use the ash-to-pass feature.
SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam Changer on
page 183andFlash-to-Pass on page 188.
When either of these conditions occur,
the IntelliBeam™ feature is temporarily
disabled until the high-beam stalk is returned
to the neutral position. If either of these
conditions occur and IntelliBeam™ already
has the high-beam headlamps on, the
IntelliBeam™ feature is disabled and the
IntelliBeam™ light in the mirror turns off.
The exterior lamp control is turned to any
setting except AUTO.
When this occurs, IntelliBeam™ is disabled
until the control is turned back to the
AUTO position and the AUTOMATIC LIGHTS
ON message displays on the DIC.
The IntelliBeam™ system is turned off at the
inside rearview mirror.
The vehicle’s speed drops below
15 mph (24 km/h).IntelliBeam™ may not turn off the high-beams if
the system cannot detect other vehicle’s lamps
because of any of the following:
The others vehicle’s lamp(s) are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view, or otherwise
undetected.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) are covered with
dirt, snow and/or road spray.
The other vehicle’s lamp(s) cannot be detected
due to dense exhaust, smoke, fog, snow, road
spray, mist, or other airborne obstructions.
Your vehicle’s windshield is dirty, cracked, or
obstructed by something that blocks the view
of the IntelliBeam™ light sensor.
Your vehicle’s windshield is covered with ice,
dirt, haze, or other obstructions.
Your vehicle is loaded such that the front end
of the vehicle points upward, causing the
IntelliBeam™ sensor to aim high and
not detect headlamps and taillamps.
You are driving on winding or hilly roads.
You might need to manually disable or cancel the
high-beam headlamps by turning the low-beam
headlamps on, if any of the above conditions exist.

Disabling and Resetting IntelliBeam™ at
the Rearview Mirror
IntelliBeam™ can be disabled and reset to the
original factory setting by using the controls on the
inside rearview mirror.
AUTO
3(IntelliBeam™ On/Off):To disable the
system, press this button on the inside rearview
mirror. The IntelliBeam™ indicator turns off
and does not come back on until the IntelliBeam™
button is pressed again.
When IntelliBeam™ has turned on the high-beams,
pull or push the high-beam stalk. This disables
IntelliBeam™ and the IntelliBeam™ indicator
on the rearview mirror turns off. To re-enable
IntelliBeam™, press the IntelliBeam™ button on
the mirror.
A different sensitivity setting is available for dealer
diagnostics. This is done by pushing and holding
this button for 20 seconds until the light ashes
three times. If you accidentally activate this, the
vehicle’s setting automatically resets each time the
ignition is turned off and then on again; otherwise,
refer to the text above for resetting the system.
Cleaning the IntelliBeam™ Light Sensor
The light sensor is
located on the inside of
the vehicle at the back of
the rearview mirror.
Clean the light sensor window, periodically, using
glass cleaner on a soft cloth. Gently wipe the
sensor window. Do not spray glass cleaner directly
on the surface of the sensor window.
Wiper Activated Headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps and parking
lamps after the windshield wipers have been in
use for about six seconds. For this feature to work,
automatic lighting must be enabled. See
Headlamps on page 211for additional information.
When the ignition is turned off, the wiper-activated
headlamps will immediately turn off. They will also
turn off if the windshield wiper control is turned off.

The URPA display is
located inside the
vehicle, above the
rear window. It has
three color-coded lights
that can be seen
through the rearview
mirror or by turning
around.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever
is moved into REVERSE (R) and the vehicle
speed is less than 3 mph (5 km/h). When
the system turns on, the three lights on the display
will illuminate for one and a half seconds to let
you know that the system is working. If your
vehicle is moving in REVERSE (R) at a speed
greater than 3 mph (5 km/h), the red light will ash
to remind you that the system does not work at
a speed greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).If an object is detected at a REVERSE (R) speed
of less than 3 mph (5 km/h), one of the following
will occur:
Description English Metric
Amber light 5 ft 1.5 m
Amber/amber lights 40 in 1.0 m
Amber/amber/red lights &
continuous chime20 in 0.5 m
Amber/amber/red lights
ashing & continuous
chime1 ft 0.3 m
A chime will sound the rst time an object is
detected between 20 inches (0.5 m) and
5 feet (1.5 m) away.
URPA cannot detect objects that are above trunk
level. In order for the rear sensors to recognize
an object, it must be within detection range behind
the vehicle.
227

The recirculation mode is cancelled when the
system enters the defog mode. If recirculation is
selected while in the defog mode, it is cancelled
after 10 minutes.
If there is fogging on the side windows, remain in
defog or defrost mode until they clear.
0(Defrost):Press this button to direct most of
the air to the windshield, with some air directed
to the side windows and outboard panel outlets. In
this mode, the system automatically turns off
recirculation and runs the air-conditioning
compressor, unless the outside temperature is at
or below freezing. Recirculation cannot be
selected while in the defrost mode.
This mode can also cause the fan speed and air
temperature to increase.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window.
The rear window defogger only works when the
ignition is on or during remote start, if
programmed. See “Personal Settings Menu” under
Vehicle Personalization on page 148for additional
information.
=(Rear Window Defogger):Press this button
to turn the rear window defogger on or off. Be
sure to clear as much snow from the rear window
as possible.
The rear window defogger turns off about
10 minutes after the button is pressed. If the
vehicle’s speed is above 30 mph (48 km/h), the
rear defogger stays on continuously. If turned
on again, the defogger only runs for about
ve minutes before turning off. The defogger can
also be turned off by pressing the button again
or by turning off the engine.
The heated outside rearview mirrors also heat to
help clear fog or frost from the surface of the
mirror when the rear window defogger is on. See
Outside Power Heated Mirrors on page 130.
Notice:Do not use a razor blade or sharp
object to clear the inside rear window. Do not
adhere anything to the defogger grid lines
in the rear glass. These actions may damage
the rear defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
