AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS
SENSOR (daylight sensor) fig. 48
(where provided)
It detects the changes of the external light
intensity of the car according to the light
sensitivity set: greater is the sensitivity,
smaller is the amount of external light nec-
essary to control the switching-on of the
exterior headlights. The daylight sensor
sensitivity can be adjusted with the “Set-
up Menu” of the instrument panel.
Activation
Turn the knurled ring to
2A: in this way,
the automatic activation of the side/tail-
lights and dipped beam headlights are si-
multaneously enabled according to the ex-
ternal luminosity.
During the sensor operation lights can on-
ly be made flashing.
Deactivation
As a result of the sensor deactivation, the
main beam headlights will switch off and,
after about 10 seconds, sidelights will
switch off too.
The light sensor is not able to detect the
fog presence, lights shall therefore be
switched on manually.
fig. 48F0Q0652m
“Cornering lights”
With low beams on at a speed of less than
40 km/h, when the steering wheel is
turned through a large angle or upon ac-
tivation of the direction indicator, a light
(incorporated in the fog lamp) will come
on to expand the angle of night-time visi-
bility on the side to which the vehicle is
turned.
“FOLLOW ME HOME”
DEVICE fig. 47
This function allows the illumination of the
space in front of the car for a preset pe-
riod of time.Activation
With the ignition key at STOPor re-
moved, pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel and operate it within 2 minutes
from when the engine is turned off.
At each single movement of the stalk, the
staying on of the lights is extended by 30
seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds;
then the lights are switched off automati-
cally.
Each time the lever is operated, the in-
strument panel warning light
3turns
on (together with the message on the dis-
play) (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).
Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel for more than 2 seconds.

Activation
Move the right-hand stalk downwards by
one position.
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.
Turning the knurled ring F-fig. 49it is
possible to increase the sensitivity of the
rain sensor, obtaining a quicker change
from stationary (no wiping) when the
windscreen is dry, to first continuous
speed (continuous slow).
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain
sensor is signalled by a control and acqui-
sition “stroke”.
Operating the windscreen washer with
the rain sensor activated the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed at the end of which
the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-
matic function.Do not activate the rain sen-
sor when washing the car in
an automatic washing station.
In the event of ice on the
windscreen, make sure to have
disconnected the device.
Make sure to have discon-
nected the device when
cleaning the windscreen.
WARNING
Deactivation
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
At next engine starting (key at MAR), the
sensor will not be reactivated even is the
stalk is on B-fig. 49. In this event, to ac-
tivate the rain sensor, you have to move
the stalk to Aor Cand then again to B.
When the rain sensor is again activated in
this way, at least one windscreen wiper
stroke occurs, even if the windscreen is
dry.

REAR SCREEN WIPER/
REAR SCREEN WASHER fig. 52
This operates only with the ignition turned
to MAR. Operation ceases when the
lever is released.
When the wheel on the lever is turned
from position
Oto position ', the rear
wiper operates as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the rear
wiper is not in operation;
❒in synchronous mode (at half the rate
of the windscreen wiper) when the
windscreen wiper is working;
❒in continuous mode, with reverse en-
gaged and the control active.HEADLIGHT WASHER fig. 53
Car headlight washers are “retractable”,
i.e.: they are located inside the front
bumpers and they are activated (with
dipped beam headlights and/or main beam
headlights on) when the windscreen wash-
er is operated.
IMPORTANT Check at regular intervals
correct operation and cleanness of noz-
zles.
Never use the rear window
wiper to remove ice or snow
from the rear window. In these
conditions, the wiper is sub-
mitted to excessive effort that results
in motor protection cutting in and
wiper operation inhibition for few sec-
onds as a consequence. If operation is
not restored contact Fiat Dealership.
fig. 52F0Q0653m
With the windscreen wiper in operation
and reverse engaged, continuous opera-
tion of the rear screen wiper is also acti-
vated. When the lever is pushed toward
the dashboard (unstable position), the rear
washer jet is also activated. When the
lever is held in this position for longer than
half a second, the rear wiper is also op-
erated. When the lever is released, smart
washing is activated, as for the windscreen
wiper.

MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒pressing the accelerator and then mem-
orising the new speed reached;
or
❒turning the knurled ring B-fig. 54tem-
porarily to (+).
Each turn of the knurled ring will corre-
spond to a slight increase in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the knurled ring
turned will correspond to a continuous
speed increase. TO REDUCE
MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒disengaging the device and then mem-
orising the new speed;
or
❒keeping the knurled ring B-fig. 54to
(–) until reaching the new speed which
will be memorised automatically.
Each turn of the knurled ring will corre-
spond to a slight reduction in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the knurled ring
turned will correspond to a continuous
speed reduction.
DEVICE DISENGAGEMENT
Turn the knurled ring A-fig. 54to OFF
or the ignition key to STOP. The device
