When Rainsense™ is active, the headlamps will
turn on automatically. If it is dark, they will
remain on. See “Wiper-Activated Headlamps”
underExterior Lamps on page 164for more
information.
Notice:Do not place stickers or other items
on the exterior glass surface directly in front of
the moisture sensor. Doing this could cause

In freezing weather, do not use your
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer uid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
If the uid in the windshield washer uid reservoir
is low, the message LOW WASHER FLUID will
appear on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
display. It will take 60 seconds after the bottle is
relled for this message to turn off. For information

Approaching and Following a Vehicle
The vehicle ahead
symbol will only appear
on the HUD when a
vehicle ahead is
detected in your path.
If this symbol does not appear, or disappears
briey, Adaptive Cruise Control will not respond to
vehicles you may see ahead.{CAUTION:
When the Adaptive Cruise Control radar is
blocked by snow, ice, or dirt, it may not
detect a vehicle ahead. Adaptive Cruise
Control may not have time to slow your
vehicle enough to avoid a collision. Do
not use Adaptive Cruise Control when the
radar is blocked by snow, ice, or dirt.
Keep your radar clean. See “Cleaning the
System” later in this section.
Adaptive Cruise Control will automatically slow
your vehicle down when approaching a slower
moving vehicle. It will then adjust your speed to
follow the vehicle in front at the selected follow
distance. Your speed will increase or decrease to
follow the vehicle in front of you but will not
exceed the set speed. The system may apply
limited braking if necessary. When braking
is active, your brake lights will come on. It may
feel or sound different than if you were applying
the brakes yourself. This is normal.
158

Cleaning the System
The radar can become blocked by snow, ice or
dirt. If so, you may need to turn off the engine and
clean the lens.
The lens is located on the driver’s side of the front
fascia.
Clean the surface with a 50/50 mixture of isopropyl
alcohol and water on a dampened cloth. After
cleaning the fascia lens, try to engage Adaptive
Cruise Control. If this does not x the problem, you
may have to remove the fascia lens and clean
the inside of the fascia lens and radar lens.To clean the inside of the fascia lens and radar
lens, insert a tool into one of the small slots on the
inboard side of the lens and pop the lens out.
Clean the surface with a 50/50 mixture of isopropyl
alcohol and water on a dampened cloth. After
cleaning the lens, set the lens back in place and
press until it snaps in.
Exterior Lamps
The exterior lamp control is located to the left of
the steering wheel on the multifunction lever.
