On some versions, when decelerating until stopping the

cally. Speed will be resumed automatically when the car
speed exceeds 10 km/h. The windscreen speed can be

the washer jet and the windscreen wiper; the latter auto-
matically turns on if you keep the stalk pulled for more than
half a second. The windscreen wiper stops operating a few
strokes after releasing the stalk; a further “cleaning stroke”,
after a few seconds, completes the wiping operation.

layers of snow or ice from the windscreen.
In these conditions, the windscreen wipers
may be submitted to excessive effort resulting in
motor protection cutting in and wiper operation in-
hibition for a few seconds. If the operation is not
restored, contact a Fiat Dealership.
