Remote Start System On the vehicles that are equipped
with this system, the key fob RKE
transmitter enables to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle
while still maintaining security. The
system has a range of approximately
300 ft (91 m). Obstructions between
the vehicle and the key fob may
reduce this range.
NOTE:
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
If your RKE transmitter fails to operate
from a normal distance, check for
these conditions:
• A weak battery in the RKE
transmitter. The expected life of the
battery is a minimum of three years.
• Closeness to a radio transmitter such
as a radio station tower, airport
transmitter, and some mobile or CB
radio.
• Obstructions between the vehicle
and the Key Fob. How to use Remote Start All of the following conditions must

Rain Sensing Windshield
Wipers This feature detects moisture on the
windshield through an internal
rearview mirror integrated sensor,
which automatically activates the
relative wipers.
Rotate forward the end of the
multifunction lever to one of four
settings to adjust the detection system.
First wiper delay position is the least
sensitive, and fourth wiper delay
position is the most sensitive. Third
position should be used for normal
rain conditions.
The rain sense wipers will
automatically change between an
intermittent wipe, slow wipe and a
fast wipe depending on the amount of
detected moisture sensed by a
particular area of the windshield.
Place the wiper switch in the “OFF”
position when you do not want to use
the automatic intermittent system.
The rain sensing feature can be turned
on and off using the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information. CAUTION!
• The rain sensing feature may not
function properly by ice or dried salt
water on the windshield.
• Use on the windshield of RainX ®
or
products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
The rain sensing system has protective
features for the wiper
blades and
arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
• Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit : the
rain sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is in RUN position,
the vehicle is stationary and the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C). To resume, set the automatic
feature on the multifunction lever,
start the engine and drive or wait
until the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
• Wipe Inhibit with Transmission in
Neutral Position : the rain sensing
feature will not operate when the
ignition is placed in the RUN
position, the transmission shift lever
is in the N (Neutral) position and the
vehicle speed is less than 5 mph
(8 km/h). To resume, set the multifunction lever to the automatic
function or move the shift lever out
of N (Neutral).
