At a Glance

Autowipers Settings
This setting defaults to on and remains on
until you switch it off in the touchscreen.
When you switch the feature off, the wipers
do not operate based on the rain sensor.
When you switch on the windshield wipers
to the intermittent wipe position with the
feature off, the wipers use the wipe speed
set by the rotary control.
Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
The rain sensing feature will not operate
immediately after starting your vehicle when
it is in park (P) and the outside temperature
is below 32°F (0°C). You can switch on the
wipers by adjusting the rain sensor sensitivity
or adjusting the wiper speed.
This prevents damage to the wiper blades
from ice and snow on the windshield.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
E269412E269412
E270967
Pull the lever toward you to
operate the windshield washers.
When you release the lever, the wipers
operate for a short time. When activated, a
courtesy wipe occurs a short time after the
wipers stop to clear any remaining washer
fluid.
Note:You can switch courtesy wipe on or
off in the touchscreen.
Note: Do not operate the washers when the
washer reservoir is empty. This could cause
the washer pump to overheat.
Front Camera Washer (If Equipped)
Operating the windshield washer also turns
on the front camera washer.

REMOTE START
The climate control system adjusts the
interior temperature during remote start.
You can switch this feature on or off and
adjust the settings using the touchscreen.
See Settings (page 555).
You cannot adjust the climate control setting
during remote start operation. Switch the
ignition on to make adjustments.
Based on your remote start settings, the
following vehicle-dependent features may
or may not remain on after remote starting
your vehicle:
• Climate controlled seats.
• Heated steering wheel.
• Heated mirrors.
• Heated rear window.
• Windshield wiper de-icer.
Note:For dual zone climate controlled seats,
the passenger seat setting defaults to match
the driver seat during remote start.
Automatic Settings
If Auto is on, the system sets the interior
temperature to 72°F (22°C) and heats or
cools the vehicle interior as required to
achieve comfort.
Note:In cold weather, the heated rear
window and heated mirrors turn on.
Last Settings
If Last Settings is on, the system uses the
settings last selected before you turned off
the vehicle.
Heated and Cooled Features
In Auto mode, certain heated features may
switch on during cold weather, and cooled
features during hot weather.

Climate Control

The system uses three types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
• Active guidelines (if equipped): Show the
intended path of your vehicle when
reversing.
• Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another object
behind you.
• Centerline: Helps align the center of your
vehicle with an object (for example, a
trailer).
Note:If the transmission is in reverse (R) and
the luggage compartment door is open, no
rear view camera features display.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing. This might not provide
adequate coverage as it usually provides in
normal operation and some objects might
not be seen. In some vehicles, the guidelines
may disappear when you connect the trailer
tow connector.The camera may not operate correctly under
the following conditions:
• Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
reverse lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
You can also use the rear washer to
clean the camera. See Rear Window
Wiper and Washers (page 109).
• The rear of your vehicle is hit or
damaged, causing the camera to become
misaligned.
Camera System Settings
Depending on your vehicle options, the rear
view camera system settings may be in the
following:
• Information display. See General
Information (page 136).
• Touchscreen. See Settings (page 555).
Camera Guidelines
Note:Active guidelines are only available
when the transmission is in reverse (R).
