for rear intermittent wipes.
m=REAR : Push the windshield wiper lever
forward to spray washer fluid on the rear

position when released.
Rear Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash, move
the rear wiper control to OFF to disable the
rear wiper. In some vehicles, if the
transmission is in N (Neutral) and the
vehicle speed is very slow, the rear wiper
will automatically park under the rear
spoiler.
The wiper operations return to normal when
the transmission is no longer in N (Neutral)
or the vehicle speed has increased.
Reverse Gear Wipes
If the rear wiper control is off, the rear
wiper will automatically operate
continuously when the shift lever is in
R (Reverse), and the front windshield wiper
is performing low or high speed wipes. If the rear wiper control is off, the shift
lever is in R (Reverse), and the front
windshield wiper is performing interval
wipes, then the rear wiper automatically
performs interval wipes.
The windshield washer reservoir is used for
the windshield and the rear window. Check
the fluid level in the reservoir if either
washer is not working. See
Washer Fluid
0 228.
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
Set the time and date using the
infotainment system. See "Time/Date" under
Settings (11 inch screen radio) 0128.
Power Outlets
Power Outlets 12-Volt Direct Current
The vehicle has 12-volt outlets that can be
used to plug in electrical equipment, such as
a cell phone or MP3 player.

Infotainment System 141
FM
FM signals only reach about 16 to 65 km
(10 to 40 mi). Although the radio has a
built-in electronic circuit that automatically
works to reduce interference, some static
can occur, especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater
than for FM, especially at night. The longer
range can cause station frequencies to
interfere with each other. Static can also
occur when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble on the
radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
provides digital radio reception. Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with satellite
radio signals, causing the sound to fade in
and out. In addition, traveling or standing
under heavy foliage, bridges, garages,
or tunnels may cause loss of the SiriusXM
signal for a period of time. Some cellular
services may interfere with SXM reception
causing loss of signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making or
receiving calls, charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause static
interference in the radio. Unplug the mobile
device or turn it off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna (8 inch
screen radio)
The multi-band roof antenna may be used
for radio, navigation, and other
communication systems, depending on the
equipped options. To ensure clear reception,
keep the antenna clear of obstructions, such
as snow and ice. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open, or a roof loaded
with cargo, reception may be affected.
Audio Players
Avoiding Untrusted Media Devices
(8 inch screen radio)
When using media devices such as USB and
mobile devices, consider the source.
Untrusted media devices could contain files
that affect system operation or performance
and should be avoided.
USB Port (8 inch screen radio)
Audio stored on a USB device may be
listened to.
Depending on your vehicle, it may be
equipped with two USB ports in the center
console under the armrest and another two
on the center stack. These ports are for data
and charging. There may also be two USB
ports at the rear of the center console and a
USB port on each side of the third row seats
for charging only.
Caution
To avoid vehicle damage, unplug all
accessories and disconnect all accessory
cables from the vehicle when not in use.
Accessory cables left plugged into the
vehicle, unconnected to a device, could be
damaged or cause an electrical short if
the unconnected end comes in contact
with liquids or another power source such
as the accessory power outlet.
Playing from a USB
A USB mass storage device can be connected
to the USB port.
