WINDOW CLEANINGThe right stalk fig. 39 controls windscreen
wiper/washer and heated rear window wiper/washer
operation (for versions/markets, where provided).
WINDSCREEN WIPER/WASHER
This only operates with the ignition turned to MAR.
The right stalk can assume five different positions:
windscreen wiper still.intermittent operation.continuous slow flick.continuous fast flick.
Move the stalk to position fig. 39 (unstable) to limit
operation to the time for which the stalk is held
in this position.
When released, the stalk will return to its default
position and the wiper will be automatically stopped.With the twist switch at
, the windscreen wiper
will automatically adapt to the speed of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers working, if reverse gear
is engaged, the rear window wiper is automatically
activated.
Do not use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to excessive
stress, prompting intervention from the motor
protection which prevents operation for a few
seconds. Contact the Fiat Dealership if operation
is not restored.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (temporary
position) to operate the windscreen washer jet.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half a second,
with just one movement it is possible to operate
the washer jet and the wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes after the
stalk is released.
A further stroke after approx. 6 seconds completes
the wiping cycle.

Electric devices
Only use electrical devices for the amount of time
needed. The heated rear window, additional
headlights, windscreen/rear window wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of energy,
therefore increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25%
in the urban cycle).
Climate control system
The air conditioner leads to higher fuel consumption
(on average up to +20%). If the temperature outside
is not too extreme, try and use the air vents.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may adversely affect
aerodynamics and fuel consumption.DRIVING STYLE
The main driving styles that affect fuel consumption
are listed below.
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high revs when
the vehicle is stationary; this causes the engine to
warm up more slowly, thereby increasing fuel
consumption and emissions. It is advisable to set off
immediately and slowly, avoiding high revs: this allows
the engine to warm up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when stationary at traffic lights or
before stopping the engine. The latter action, like
double declutching, is unnecessary and increases
consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and road
conditions allow. Using a low gear for faster
acceleration will increase fuel consumption.
In the same way, improper use of a high gear
increases fuel consumption, emissions and engine
wear.
Top speed
Fuel consumption increases considerably with speed.
Maintain a constant speed, avoiding unnecessary

braking and acceleration, which cost in terms of both
fuel consumption and emissions.

RUBBER LINESFollow the requirements in “Scheduled Servicing
Plan” in this section carefully for brake and fuel
rubber lines.
Ozone, high temperatures and a prolonged lack of
fluid in the system may cause hardening and cracking
of the tubes, which could result in leaks. Careful
inspections are therefore necessary.

BLADES
Regularly clean the rubber part using appropriate
products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is
recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is misshapen or
worn. In any event, it is advisable to replace them
approximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility
of damage to the blades:
❒make sure that the rubber part is not stuck to the
windscreen at sub-zero temperatures. Use an
antifreeze product to release it if required;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents the electric
motor from overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen and rear window
wipers on dry glass.
WARNING
Driving with worn wiper blades is a
serious hazard, because visibility is
reduced in bad weather.
