High sensitivity.
A
Autowipers on.
B
Low sensitivity.
C
Move the wiper lever upward to the first
position to switch autowipers on.
Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the autowipers. When you
select low sensitivity, the wipers operate
when the sensor detects a large amount
of water on the windshield. When you
select high sensitivity, the wipers operate
when the sensor detects a small amount
of water on the windshield.
Note: Keep the outside of the windshield
clean. The rain sensor is very sensitive and
the wipers may operate if dirt, mist or
insects hit the windshield.
If you leave autowipers on, it may not
operate when you switch the ignition on
during freezing temperatures. This is
because the system has deactivated the
rain sensor to prevent damage to the
windshield wipers. Defrost the windshield
before reactivating the rain sensor. You
can reactivate the rain sensor by moving
the rotary control or switching autowipers
off and on.
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on. Note:
Make sure that you switch the
windshield wipers off before entering a car
wash.
Wet or winter weather conditions could
cause unexpected wiping or smearing.
To keep the windshield clear:
• Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on
the windshield.
• Switch autowipers off.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. If that does not resolve the
issue, install new wiper blades. See
Changing the Front Wiper Blades (page
246).
WINDSHIELD WASHERS Pull the lever toward you to operate the
windshield washers. When you release the
lever, the wipers operate for a short time.
Note:
Do not operate the washers when
the washer reservoir is empty. This may
cause the washer pump to overheat.

On-Board Diagnostics System
Your vehicle has an on-board diagnostics
system that monitors the emission control
system. If any of the following warning
lamps illuminate, this may indicate that
the on-board diagnostics system has
detected an emission control system
malfunction.
Continuing to drive your vehicle may cause
reduced power or the engine to stop.
Failure to respond to a warning lamp may
cause component damage not covered by
the vehicle Warranty. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
See Warning Lamps and Indicators
(page 93).
SELECTIVE CATALYTIC
REDUCTANT SYSTEM
Your vehicle has a selective catalytic
reductant system to help reduce exhaust
emission levels by injecting diesel exhaust
fluid into the exhaust system. The engine
may not start if you tamper with or disable
the selective catalytic reductant system.
For the system to correctly operate, you
must maintain the fluid level. The
minimum fluid refill quantity required to
restart the engine is
1.51 gal (5.7 L).
Note: If your vehicle is on a gradient, the
minimum fluid refill quantity required to
restart the engine may be greater than
1.51 gal (5.7 L)
. Diesel Exhaust Fluid Guidelines
•
Do not put in the vehicle fuel tank. This
can cause engine damage not covered
by the vehicle Warranty.
• Do not overfill the tank.
• Do not dilute with water or any other
liquid.
• Do not re-use an empty fluid container.
• Do not store in direct sunlight.
• Store at temperatures between
23°F
(-5°C) and 68°F (20°C).
• Do not store fluid containers in your
vehicle.
• The fluid is non-flammable, non-toxic,
colorless and water-soluble.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Tank The diesel exhaust fluid tank filler pipe is
next to the fuel tank filler pipe and has a
blue cap. Fill the tank using a fluid pump
at a diesel exhaust fluid filling station or a
diesel exhaust fluid container.

Only use diesel exhaust fluid that is
certified by the American Petroleum
Institute (API). Non-certified diesel
exhaust fluid use can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Note:
Wash off any fluid that may have
spilled on to a painted surface with soapy
water.
Filling in Cold Climates
Diesel exhaust fluid may freeze when the
temperature is below 12°F (-11°C). Your
vehicle has a preheating system which
allows the fluid to operate below
12°F
(-11°C). If you overfill the diesel exhaust
fluid tank and the fluid freezes, it may
cause damage not covered by the vehicle
Warranty.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Tank Using a Fuel Station Pump WARNING:
Keep diesel exhaust
fluid out of reach of children. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing. In
case of contact with your eyes, flush
immediately with water and get prompt
medical attention. In case of contact
with your skin, clean immediately with
soap and water. If you swallow any
diesel exhaust fluid, drink plenty of
water, call a physician immediately. WARNING:
Only refill the diesel
exhaust fluid tank in a well ventilated
area. When you remove the diesel
exhaust fluid tank filler cap or a diesel
exhaust fluid container cap, ammonia
vapors may escape. Ammonia vapors
can be irritating to skin, eyes and mucous
membranes. Inhaling ammonia vapors
can cause burning to the eyes, throat and
nose and cause coughing and watery
eyes.
Filling the diesel exhaust fluid tank using
a fuel station pump is similar to refueling
your vehicle.
1. Fully open the fuel filler door. 2. Remove the diesel exhaust fluid tank
filler cap.
3. Fully insert the diesel exhaust fluid pump nozzle.

4. Operate the pump nozzle within the
area shown.
Note: The pump nozzle shuts off when the
tank is full.
5. Slightly raise the diesel exhaust fluid pump nozzle and then slowly remove
it.
6. Replace the diesel exhaust fluid tank filler cap. Turn it clockwise until you
feel a strong resistance.
Do not attempt to start the engine if you
have filled the diesel exhaust fluid tank
with incorrect fluid. Incorrect diesel
exhaust fluid use could cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty. Have your
vehicle immediately checked. Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Tank Using a Container WARNING: Keep diesel exhaust
fluid out of reach of children. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing. In
case of contact with your eyes, flush
immediately with water and get prompt
medical attention. In case of contact
with your skin, clean immediately with
soap and water. If you swallow any
diesel exhaust fluid, drink plenty of
water, call a physician immediately. WARNING:

can be irritating to skin, eyes and mucous
membranes. Inhaling ammonia vapors
can cause burning to the eyes, throat and
nose and cause coughing and watery
eyes.
Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions.
1. Remove the fluid container cap.
2. Place the spout on to the container and
tighten it until you feel a strong
resistance.
