while the wipers are
performing wipes due to
windshield washing or
Rainsense, the wipers
continue to run until they
reach the base of the
windshield.
Rainsense
If equipped with Rainsense, a
sensor near the top center of
the windshield detects the
amount of water on the
windshield and controls the
frequency of the windshield
wiper.
To turn the Rainsense feature
on or off, select Settings >
Vehicle > Comfort and
Convenience > Rainsense

Messages
REDUCED
ACCELERATION DRIVE
WITH CARE
This message displays when
the vehicle's propulsion power
is reduced. A reduction in
propulsion power can affect
the vehicle's ability to
accelerate. If this message is
on, but there is no observed
reduction in performance,
proceed to your destination.
Under certain conditions theperformance may be reduced
the next time the vehicle is
driven. The vehicle may be
driven while this message is
on, but maximum acceleration
and speed may be reduced.
Anytime this message stays
on, or displays repeatedly, the
vehicle should be taken to
your dealer for service as
soon as possible.
Under certain operating
conditions, propulsion will be
disabled. Try restarting after
the ignition has been off for
two minutes.
Vehicle Speed
Messages
SPEED LIMITED TO
XXX KM/H (MPH)
This message shows that the

The exterior and interior lamps
remain on for a set amount of
time, then automatically
turn off.
The interior lights turn on
when the vehicle is turned off.
The exterior lamps turn off
immediately by turning the
exterior lamp control off.
This feature can be changed.
On the infotainment home
screen, select the Settings

Battery Load
Management
The vehicle has Electric Power
Management (EPM), which
estimates the battery's
temperature and state of
charge. It then adjusts the
voltage for best performance
and extended life of the
battery.
When the battery's state of
charge is low, the voltage is
raised slightly to quickly bring
the charge back up. When thestate of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to
prevent overcharging. If the
vehicle has a voltmeter gauge
or a voltage display on the
Driver Information Center
(DIC), you may see the voltage
move up or down. This is
normal. If there is a problem,
an alert will be displayed.
The battery can be discharged
at idle if the electrical loads
are very high. This is true for
all vehicles. This is because
the generator (alternator) may
not be spinning fast enough at
idle to produce all the power
that is needed for very high
electrical loads.
A high electrical load occurs
when several of the following
are on, such as: headlamps,
high beams, fog lamps, rear
window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed,
heated seats, engine cooling
fans, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent
excessive discharge of the
battery. It does this by
balancing the generator's
output and the vehicle's
electrical needs. It can
increase engine idle speed to
generate more power,
whenever needed. It can
temporarily reduce the power
demands of some accessories.
Normally, these actions occur
in steps or levels, without
being noticeable. In rare cases
at the highest levels of
corrective action, this action
may be noticeable to the
driver. If so, a DIC message
might be displayed. If a battery
message is displayed, it is
recommended that the driver
reduce the electrical loads as
much as possible. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level)
0129 or
Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Uplevel) 0132.

Cleaning High Gloss
Surfaces and Vehicle
Information and Radio
Displays
For vehicles with high gloss
surfaces or vehicle displays,
use a microfiber cloth to wipe
surfaces. Before wiping the
surface with the microfiber
cloth, use a soft bristle brush
to remove dirt that could
scratch the surface. Then use
the microfiber cloth by gently
rubbing to clean. Never use
window cleaners or solvents.
Periodically hand wash the
microfiber cloth separately,
using mild soap. Do not use
bleach or fabric softener.
Rinse thoroughly and air dry
before next use.

Climate Control Influence
on Fuel Economy
The climate control system
depends on other vehicle
systems for heat and power
input. Certain climate control
settings can lead to higher
fuel usage.

Climate Controls 227
The following climate control
settings use more fuel:
.MAX air conditioning mode
.Defrost mode
.Extreme temperature
settings, such as 15° C
(60° F) or 32° C (90° F)
.High fan speed settings
To help reduce fuel usage:
.Use the full automatic
control as described under
“Automatic Operation.”
.Select a temperature setting
that is higher in hot weather
and lower in cold weather.
.Turn off the air conditioning
when it is not needed.
.Only use defrost to clear the
windows.
Automatic Operation
The system automatically
controls the following four
functions to heat or cool the
vehicle to the desired
temperature:
.Fan Speed
.Air Delivery Mode
.Air Conditioning
.Recirculation
When the AUTO indicator light
is lit, all four functions are
operating automatically. Each
function can be manually set
and the selected setting will
be shown. This cancels full
automatic operation and the
AUTO indicator light turns off.
Functions that are not
manually set will continue to
be automatically controlled,
although the AUTO indicator
light will not be lit.
To place the system in
automatic mode: 1. Press AUTO.
2. Set the driver and passenger temperature.
To find your comfort
setting, start with 22 °C
(72 °F) and allow the
system time to stabilize.
Then adjust the
temperature as needed for
best comfort. To improve fuel efficiency and
to cool the vehicle faster,
recirculation may be
automatically selected in warm
weather.
The recirculation light will not
come on when automatically
controlled. Press
@to
manually select recirculation;
press it again to select
outside air.
Do not cover the solar sensor
on the top of the instrument
panel near the windshield.
This sensor regulates air
temperature based on sun
load. See “Sensors” later in
this section.
