WINDOW WASHING
WINDSCREEN WASHER/
WIPER fig. 49
The device can only work when the igni-
tion key is at MAR.
The stalk can be moved to five different
positions:
A: windscreen wiper off.
B: flick wipe.
With the stalk in position B, turning the
knurled ring Ffour possible intermittent
speeds are obtained:
,= very slow intermittent
■= slow intermittent.
■■= intermittent medium.
■■■= fast intermittent.
C: continuous slow;
D: continuous fast;
E: fast temporary (unstable position).Operation in position Eis limited to the
time the lever is held in this position.
When the lever is released, it returns to
position Aautomatically stopping the
wiper.
IMPORTANT When the wiper is on, en-
gaging reverse gear automatically turns on
the rear window wiper.fig. 49F0Q0645m
Never use the window wiper
to remove ice or snow from
the windscreen. In these con-
ditions, the wiper is submitted
to excessive effort that results in mo-
tor protection cutting in and wiper op-
eration inhibition for few seconds as a
consequence. If operation is not re-
stored contact Fiat Dealership.

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.
