I'd avoid the rear wipe when reversing.
If your rear window is dry and full of dirt, you will scratch f**k out of it for no reason.
My car is nearly 2 months old and I yet to use the rear wiper.

With that box ticked, the rear wiper only works in reverse if the front wipers are working. If the front wipers are in auto position, the rear wiper only works if the screen sensor has detected moisture and is dealing with it.
