Intermittent Wipers
Use one of the four intermittent wiper settings
when weather conditions make a single wiping
cycle, with a variable delay between cycles,
desirable. At driving speeds above 10 mph
(16 km/h), the delay can be regulated from a
maximum of approximately 18 seconds between
cycles (first detent), to a cycle every one second
(fourth detent). If the vehicle is moving less than
10 mph (16 km/h), delay times will be doubled.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, push on the end of the lever
(toward the steering wheel) and hold. If the lever is
pushed while in the intermittent setting, the wipers
will turn on and operate for several cycles after the
end of the lever is released, and then resume the
intermittent interval previously selected.
If the end of the lever is pushed while the wipers
are in the off position, the wipers will operate for
several cycles, then turn off.
NOTE:As a protective measure, the washer will stop if the
switch is held for more than 20 seconds. Once the
switch is released the washer will resume normal
operation. Mist
Rotate the end of the lever downward to the MIST
position and release for a single wiping cycle.
NOTE:The Mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on
the windshield. The wash function must be used in
order to spray the windshield with washer fluid.
For information on wiper care and replacement,
see Ú
page 268.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS — IF EQUIPPED
This feature senses rain or snowfall on the
windshield and automatically activates the wipers.
Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to one of
four detent positions to activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with
the multifunction lever. Wiper delay position one is
the least sensitive, and wiper delay position four is
the most sensitive. Setting three is preferred by the average driver
during normal rain conditions.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when
the wiper switch is in the low or high-speed posi
-
tion.
The Rain Sensing feature may not function prop -
erly when ice, or dried salt water is present on
the windshield.
Use of Rain-X or products containing wax or sili-
cone may reduce Rain Sensing performance.
The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and
off using the Uconnect system Ú page 156.
The Rain Sensing system has protection features
for the wiper blades and arms, and will not operate
under the following conditions:
Low Ambient Temperature — When the ignition
is first placed in the ON position, the Rain
Sensing system will not operate until the wiper
switch is moved, vehicle speed is greater than
3 mph (5 km/h), or the outside temperature is
greater than 32°F (0°C).
Transmission In NEUTRAL Position — When the
ignition is in the ON position, and the gear
selector is in NEUTRAL, the Rain Sensing system
will not operate until the wiper switch is moved,
vehicle speed is greater than 3 mph (5 km/h),
or the gear selector is moved out of NEUTRAL.
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.

Connecting The AUX Audio Input Or
External USB Device
Use the connection cable to connect an external
USB device to the vehicle’s USB/AUX connector
port which is located in the center console.

The USB ports on the media hub are equipped with a
Smart Electronic Voltage Regulator (Smart Charge)
feature. This feature allows a device to charge for up
to one hour after the vehicle is powered off.

Integrated Center Console USB/AUX Media HUB
Once the audio device is connected and
synchronized to the vehicle’s USB control system
(an external USB device may take a few minutes to
connect), the audio device starts charging and is
ready for use.
Once a device is connected to the USB port, it will
begin charging and is ready for use with the
system. Type C and Type A charge-only USB ports
can be used at the same time but cannot be used
simultaneously while playing media. When both
Type C and Type A charge-only USB ports are in use
they will be charged at a reduced rate.
NOTE:If the audio device battery is completely
discharged, it may not communicate with the USB
control system until a minimum charge is attained.
Leaving the audio device connected to the USB
control system may charge it to the required level.
Using This Feature
By using an external USB device to connect to
the USB port:

The audio device can be played on the vehicle’s
sound system, providing metadata (artist, track
title, album, etc.) information on the radio display.

NOTE:Depending on track configuration, track infor
-
mation may not be present on the radio display.
The audio device can be controlled using the
radio buttons to Play, Browse, and List the
contents.
The audio device battery charges when plugged
into the USB/AUX connector (if supported by the
specific audio device).
NOTE:For further information, refer to the Uconnect
Owner’s Manual Supplement.
Second Row USB Charging Port
Second Row USB Charging ports can be used for
charging purposes only. Use the connection cable
to connect an external USB device to the vehicle’s
USB charging ports which are located either on the
rear of the front center console and/or in the
second row center console.

ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLETS
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (13 Amp)
power outlets that can be used to power cellular
phones, small electronics and other low powered
electrical accessories. The power outlets are
labeled with either a “key” or a “battery” symbol to
indicate how the outlet is powered. Power outlets
labeled with a key symbol are powered when the
ignition switch is in the ON or ACC position, while
the outlets labeled with a battery symbol are
connected directly to the battery, and are powered
at all times.
NOTE:
All accessories connected to the battery
powered outlets should be removed or turned
off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the
battery against discharge.
Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded the
fuse protecting the system needs to be
replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs
only. Do not insert any other object in the power
outlets as this will damage the outlet and blow
the fuse. Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

gate, an emergency liftgate latch release can be
used to open the liftgate. The emergency liftgate
latch release can be accessed through a snap-in
cover located on the liftgate trim panel.
If liftgate is left open for an extended period of
time, the liftgate may need to be closed manu -
ally to reset power liftgate functionality.
NOTE:
The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the
vehicle is in gear or the vehicle speed is above
0 mph (0 km/h).
The power liftgate will not operate in tempera -
tures below −22°F (−30°C) or temperatures
above 150°F (65°C). Be sure to remove any
buildup of snow or ice from the liftgate before
pushing any of the power liftgate switches.
If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is
closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed or open position. After
multiple obstructions in the same cycle, the lift -
gate will automatically stop and must be opened
or closed manually.
There are also pinch sensors attached to the
side of the liftgate. Light pressure anywhere
along these strips will cause the liftgate to
return to the open position.
If the liftgate is only partially open, push the lift -
gate button on the key fob twice to operate the
liftgate.
If the liftgate release handle is pushed while the
power liftgate is opening, the liftgate motor will
disengage to allow manual operation.
