“Rain Sense Wipers ”under Vehicle
Personalization 0140.
Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash,
move the windshield wiper lever to
OFF. This disables the automatic
Rainsense windshield wipers.
With Rainsense, if the transmission is
in N (Neutral) and the vehicle speed is
very slow, the wipers will
automatically stop at the base of the
windshield.
The wiper operations return to normal
when the transmission is no longer in
N (Neutral) or the vehicle speed has
increased.Rear Camera Washer
If equipped, push the windshield
wiper lever forward to spray washer
fluid on the rear camera lens. The
lever returns to its starting position
when released. See Rear Camera Mirror
0 35.
Activating the Rear Camera Washer
also cleans the Night Vision Camera,
if equipped. See Night Vision System
0 250.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives its
heading and other information from
the Global Positioning System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak/Electronic
Stability Control (ESC), and vehicle
speed information.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of miles
or degrees of turn before needing a
signal from the GPS satellites. When
the compass display shows CAL, drive
the vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS
signal is restored and provide a
heading again.
Clock
The time and date for the clock can be
set using the infotainment system. See
“Time/Date
”in “System ”under
“Settings ”in the infotainment manual.

become very hot. On the rare
occasion that the charging system
does not detect an object, and the
object gets wedged between the
smartphone and charger, remove
the smartphone and allow the
object to cool before removing it
from the charging pad, to prevent
burns.
To charge a compatible smartphone:1. Remove all objects from the charging pad. The system may
not charge if there are any
objects between the smartphone
and charging pad.
2. Place the smartphone face up on the
@symbol on the charging
pad and align it to the left wall
of the charging bin.
To maximize the charge rate,
ensure the smartphone is fully
seated and centered in the bin
with nothing under it. A thick
smartphone case may prevent
the wireless charger from
working, or may reduce the
charging performance. See your
dealer for additional information.
3. A green

appear on the infotainment
display. This indicates that the
smartphone is properly
positioned and charging. If
