The rain sensor (fitted on certain versions
only), is an electronic device coupled to
the windscreen wiper with the purpose of
adjusting automatically, during the inter-
mittent operation, the frequency of the
windscreen wiper strokes as to the rain
intensity.
The rain sensor will activate automatical-
ly when moving the stalk to AUTO; its
range varies gradually from windscreen
wiper off (no wipe) when the windscreen
is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed
with heavy rain.
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”. RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the dri-
ving mirror in contact with the windscreen
and has the purpose of adjusting auto-
matically, during the intermittent opera-
tion, the frequency of the windscreen
wiper strokes as to the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.

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.
So as to deactivate the rain sensor, put the
windscreen wiper command in the I, 1or
2positions. The deactivation is accompa-
nied by a message on the display.
To activate the rain sensor you have to
move the stalk to another position and
then back to AUTO.The rain sensor is able to recognize and
automatically adjust itself in the presence
of the following particular conditions:
❒
impurities on the controlled surface
(salt, dirt, etc...);
❒
streaks of water produced by worn
wiper blades;
❒
difference between day and night (hu-
man eye is more bothered by wet glass
at night).Pulling the stalk towards the steering
wheel (unstable position), regardless of
the position of the knurled ring, operates
the windscreen washer and if the dipped
or high beams are on, also the headlight
washer (for versions/markets, where pro-
vided).
Windscreen wiper will then perform three
wiping strokes.
Do not activate the rain sen-
sor when washing the vehi-
cle at automatic car-wash stations.
WARNING
When cleaning or washing
the windscreen make sure the
rain sensor is off.
WARNING
Do not activate the rain sen-
sor if the windscreen is icy.

(for versions/markets, where provided)
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.

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 (also after restarting the vehicle
by the ignition key) contact Fiat Deal-
ership.

CRUISE CONTROL
SPEED REGULATOR (for versions/markets, where provided)
“It is the speed desired by the driver”.
This driving aid allows, in case of smooth-
flowing traffic, to maintain the speed pro-
grammed by the driver constant, except
in the case of a very steep hill.
In order to be programmed or activated,
the speed of the vehicle must be more
than 40 km/h, in at least the 4th gear.When vehicles are equipped with both the
restrictor and the regulator (depending on
the country of commercialisation and the
engine), the two functions cannot be ac-
tivated at the same time.This regulator shows on the control lock
the state of the function selection and it
shows the programmed speed:

Modification of a
programmed
speed
In order to memorise
a speed which is supe-
rior to the previous
one, there are two possibilities:
Without using the accelerator:
❒
Press the Set +key.
A slight pressure increases the speed by 1
km/h.
A constant pressure increases the speed
by steps of 5 km/h.
By using the accelerator:
❒
exceeding the memorised speed until
reaching the desired speed
❒
Press the Set + o Set –key
In order to memorise a speed which is in-
ferior to the previous one:
❒
Press the Set -key
A brief pressure reduces the speed by 1
km/h.
A constant pressure reduces the speed by
steps of 5 km/h.Function Arrest
Move the knob to the 0position or take
out the starting key.
Cancellation of the programmed
speed
When the vehicle stops, after having tak-
en out the starting key, the speed is no
longer memorised by the system.
Functioning Anomaly
The programmed speed is cancelled and
substituted by three dashes.
Please seek advice from the Fiat Dealer-
ship in order to have the system checked.For a correct usage
Take care when you modify the pro-
grammed speed with a constant pressure,
in that the speed may increase or decrease
rapidly. Do not use the speed regulator
on a slippery road or in heavy traffic.
In case of a steep downwards slope; the
speed regulator cannot prevent the vehi-
cle of exceeding the programmed speed.
The regulator cannot, under any circum-
stances, substitute the respect of the
speed limit, nor the alertness and the re-
sponsibility of the driver. In order to hin-
der the functioning of the pedals:
– Check that the car mat is in the correct
position
– Do not overlap several car mats.

“LIMIT” SPEED
RESTRICTOR (for versions/markets, where provided)
“It is the chosen speed which the driver
does not wish to exceed”. This selection
can be made when the engine is running,
when the vehicle is stationary or in gear.
The minimum speed which can be pro-
grammed is 30 km/h.
The speed of the vehicle answers to the
pressure of the driver’s foot until the re-
sistance point of the accelerator pedal, to
indicate that the programmed speed has
been reached. However, the pressure on
the accelerator pedal beyond this point of
resistance allows the programmed speed
to be exceeded.To recover the use of the restrictor, it is
sufficient to progressively release the pres-
sure on the accelerator pedal and return
below the programmed speed.
In vehicles equipped with speed restric-
tors and regulators (depending on the
country of commercialisation and the en-
gine), the two functions cannot be acti-
vated at the same time.
The manipulations can be carried out both
when the vehicle is stationary and when
the vehicle is in gear.This restrictor visualises the state of the
function selection and the programmed
speed on the control lock:
Selected function,

symbol “Speed Re-
strictor”.

tion, last speed

The restrictor is selected but it is not yet
active. The display indicates the last speed
programmed.
Speed Programming
This programming function can be carried
out without activating the restrictor, but
with the engine running.
In order to memorise a speed superior to
the previous one:
❒
press the Set +key.
A slight pressure increases the speed by 1
km/h.
A constant pressure increases the speed
by steps of 5 km/h.
In order to memorise a speed less than
the previous one:
❒
press the Set -key.
A slight pressure reduces the speed by 1
km/h.
A constant pressure reduces the speed by
steps of 5 km/h. Activation/deactivation (OFF)
By pressing the button the first time, it ac-
tivates the restrictor; a second time de-
activates it (OFF).
