Instruments and Controls

When the windshield wiper lever
is released, additional wipes may
occur depending on how long
the windshield washer had been
activated. See Washer Fluid on
page 10‑28
for information on
filling the windshield washer
fluid reservoir.

{

WARNING

In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield
is warmed. Otherwise the
washer fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.

Clear ice and snow from the
wiper blades before using them.
If they are frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them.
Damaged wiper blades should
be replaced. See Wiper Blade
Replacement on page 10‑34
.

Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wipers. A circuit breaker stops them
until the motor cools.

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, and vehicle speed
information.

Avoid covering the GPS antenna
for long periods of time with
objects that may interfere with
the antenna's ability to receive a
satellite signal. See Backglass
Antenna on page 7‑13
and Satellite
Radio Antenna on page 7‑14
for the
location of the vehicle's antennas.
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 the GPS signal is restored
and provide a heading again.
See Compass Messages on
page 5‑35
for more information
on the messages that may be
displayed for the compass.

Clock

The infotainment system controls
are used to access the time and
date settings through the menu
system. See Operation on page 7‑4
for information about how to use the
menu system.
