tivate the right or left turn signals.

downward to signal. When the turn is
completed, the signal will cancel and the

there. The lever will return to its normal
position when you release it. REAR FOG LIGHT SWITCH

unless the head light switch is in the third
position.

To turn the windshield wipers on, move
the lever down to one of the three op-
erating positions. In the “INT” position
(if equipped), the wipers operate inter-
mittently. The “INT” position is very con-
venient for driving in mist or light rain. In
the “LO” position, the wipers operate at
a steady low speed. In the “HI” position,
the wipers operate at a steady high speed.

“MIST” position, the windshield wipers
will turn on continuously at low speed.

windscreen. In these conditions, the wiper
is submitted to excessive effort that re-
sults in motor protection cutting in and
wiper operation inhibition for few seconds
as a consequence. If operation is not re-
stored (also after restarting the vehicle by
the ignition key) contact Fiat Dealership.
