REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
fig. 48
The device can only work when the igni-
tion key is at MAR.
Operation will stop when releasing the
stalk.
Turning the knurled ring from Oto
'will
operate the rear window wiper as follows:
❒intermittent operation if the wind-
screen wiper is off;
❒synchronised with the windscreen
wiper (but with half stroke frequency);
❒continuous operation with reverse en-
gaged and windscreen wiper on .HEADLIGHT WASHER
(where provided) fig. 49
Headlight washers are “retractable”, i.e.:
they are located inside the front bumpers
and they are activated when (with dipped
beams on) the windscreen washer is op-
erated.
IMPORTANT Check at regular intervals
correct operation and cleanness of noz-
zles.
fig. 49F0M0356m
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 seconds as
a consequence. If operation is not re-
stored contact Fiat Dealership.
With windscreen wiper on and reverse
gear engaged, rear window wiping will be
continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(unstable position) will activate the rear
window washer.
Keeping the stalk pushed for over half a
second will activate also the rear window
wiper.
Releasing the stalk will activate the smart
washing function as described for the
windscreen wiper.

Side/taillights and low beams
The warning light turns on when side/tail-
lights or low beams are turned on.
Follow me home
Testo:The warning light will turn when this
device is active (see “Follow me home”
in section “Dashboard and controls”). The
display will show the dedicated message.
3Strong radio-frequency nois-
es could inhibit the regular
operation of the T.P.M.S. system.
This condition will be indicated by a
message (where provided). The warn-
ing message will go off automatical-
ly as soon as the radio-frequency
noise will stop to disturb the system.
WARNINGTyre pressure unsuitable for speed
Should it be required to journey at a speed
higher than 160 km/h, inflate tyres at pres-
sures values specified in paragraph “Infla-
tion pressures”.
If the T.P.M.S. system (where provided)
detects that the pressure of one or more
tyres is unsuitable for the current speed,
the warning light will turn on (together
with the message on the display) (see para-
graph “Low tyre pressure” in this section)
and it will stay on until the car speed slow
downs below the preset threshold.
IMPORTANT In this case slow down im-
mediately since tyre overheating could im-
pair tyre performance and life beyond re-
pair, and even make the tyre to blow-out.

WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒ When a light is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing a bulb. For the location of fus-
es, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse
blows” in this section;
❒ Before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
❒ Burnt bulbs must be replaced by oth-
ers of the same type and power;
❒ Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
may be lightly misted over: this is not a
fault but a natural fact due to low tem-
perature and the level of air humidity. It
will disappear as soon the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights means water infiltration,
therefore contact Fiat Dealership.
TYPES OF BULBS
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your
car:
AGlass bulbs: clipped into position. Pull
to remove.BBayonet type bulbs: to remove this
type of bulb from its holder, press
the bulb and turn it counter-clock-
wise.
CTubular bulbs: release them from
their contacts to remove.
D-EHalogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place. Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent bulb
is touched with the fingers, its
lighting intensity is reduced and life of
the bulb may be compromised. If
touched accidentally, rub the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and al-
low to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without bearing the fea-
tures of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.
