At the top detent of the instrument panel dimmer,
all the interior lights will illuminate. At the bottom
most setting (extreme bottom) interior lights are
turned off (dome off), and the cluster, radio and
instrument lighting go to their lowest dimmable
setting.
WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHERS
The windshield wiper/washer controls are located
on the right side of the steering column. The front
wipers are operated by rotating a switch, located
on the end of the lever.
WINDSHIELD WIPER OPERATION
The wipers and washers are operated by a switch
within the wiper lever. Rotate the switch at the end
of the lever upward, to the first detent past the
intermittent settings for low-speed wiper
operation. Rotate the switch at the end of the lever
upward to the second detent past the intermittent
settings for high-speed wiper operation. To turn the
windshield wipers off, rotate the switch within the
lever all the way down to OFF.
Windshield Wiper Operation

Intermittent Wipers
Use the intermittent wiper when weather
conditions make a single wiping cycle with a
variable pause between cycles desirable. Rotate
the switch at the end of the wiper lever to the first
detent position, and then turn the switch at the end
of the lever to select the desired delay interval.
There are four delay settings, which allow you to
regulate the wipe interval from a minimum of one
cycle every second to a maximum of approximately
36 seconds between cycles. The delay intervals
will double in duration when the vehicle speed is
10 mph (16 km/h) or less.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever rearward toward
you and hold. If the lever is pulled while on the
intermittent setting, the wipers will turn on and
operate for several wipe cycles after the lever is
released, and then resume the intermittent
interval previously selected. If the lever is pulled
while the wipers are in the off position, the wipers
will operate several cycles, then turn off.
1 — Pull For Front Washer
2 — Rotate For Rear Wiper Operation
3 — Rotate For Front Wiper Operation
4 — Push Forward For Rear Washer
5 — Push Up For Mist
CAUTION!
Always remove any buildup of snow that
prevents the windshield wiper blades from
returning to the “park” position. If the windshield
wiper switch is turned off, and the blades cannot
return to the “park” position, damage to the
wiper motor may occur.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield
could lead to a collision. You might not see other
vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden
icing of the windshield during freezing weather,
warm the windshield with the defroster before
and during windshield washer use.

HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE — IF EQUIPPED

Hands-Free Liftgate Activation Zone

To open the liftgate using hands-free activation,
use a straight in and out kicking motion under the
vehicle activation zone in the general location
below the liftgate door handle. Do not move your
foot sideways or in a sweeping motion or the
sensors may not detect the motion. Vehicles Equipped With A Trailer Tow Package
NOTE:If your vehicle is equipped with the Trailer Tow
Package, the hands-free activation zone(s) for the
Power Liftgate will be located on the left and right
side of the receiver. Use a straight kicking motion
under either activation zone to open the
Hands-Free Liftgate.

Hands-Free Liftgate Trailer Tow Activation Zones

When a valid kicking motion is completed, the
liftgate will chime, the hazard lights will flash and
the liftgate will open after approximately one
second. This assumes all options are enabled in
the Uconnect system.
NOTE:To open the Hands-Free Liftgate requires a valid
Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the door
handle. If a valid Passive Entry key fob is not within
5 ft (1.5 m), the liftgate will not respond to any
kicks.
NOTE:
The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate when
the transmission is in PARK.
If anything obstructs the Hands-Free Liftgate
while it is opening or closing, the liftgate will
automatically reverse to the closed position,
provided it meets sufficient resistance.
There are pinch sensors attached to the side of
the liftgate opening. Light pressure anywhere
along these strips will cause the liftgate to
return to the open position.
CAUTION!
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be turned
on or off in Uconnect Settings. The Hands-Free
Liftgate feature should be turned off during
jacking, tire changing, and vehicle service

If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the system
will automatically stop. If this occurs, the liftgate
must be operated manually.
The power liftgate will release, but not power
open, in temperatures below −12°F (−24°C).
Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before opening the liftgate.
If the liftgate is left open for an extended period
of time, the liftgate may need to be closed
manually to reset power liftgate functionality.
The Hands-Free Liftgate only works to open the
liftgate. Gas props support the liftgate in the open position.
However, because the gas pressure drops with
temperature, it may be necessary to assist the
props when opening the liftgate in cold weather.
NOTE:Allow the power system to open the liftgate.
Manually pushing or pulling the liftgate may
activate the liftgate obstacle detection feature and
stop the power operation or reverse its direction.
CARGO AREA FEATURES

the vehicle.
WARNING!
Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle.
You and your passengers could be injured by
these fumes. Keep the liftgate closed when
