IMPORTANT We recommend replacing
the blades once a year.“Smart washing” function
Pulling the stalk towards the steering
wheel (unstable position) operates
the windscreen washer fig. 70.
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 windscreen wiper stops working
three strokes after the stalk is released.
A further stroke after approx. 6 seconds
completes the wiping cycle.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the
driving mirror in contact with the
windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjust, during the
intermittent operation, the frequency of
the windscreen wiper strokes as to
the rain intensity.IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the
sensor area clean.
Activation fig. 69
Move the right lever down by one click
(position B).
The activation of the sensor is signalled
by a "stroke" to show that the
command has been acquired.
Turn the control F to increase the rain
sensor sensitivity.
The increasing of the rain sensor
sensitivity is signalled by a "stroke" to
show that the command has been
acquired.
If the windscreen washer is used with
the rain sensor activated, the normal
washing cycle is performed, after which
the rain sensor resumes its normal
automatic operation.
Deactivation fig. 69
Move the lever from position B or turn
the ignition key to OFF. The next time
the vehicle is started (ignition key in ON
position), the sensor is not reactivated
even if the lever is still in position B.
To activate the sensor, move the lever
to position A or C and then back to
position B or turn the ring nut for
adjusting the sensitivity. Rain sensor
activation will be indicated by at least
one wiper “stroke” even if the
windscreen is dry.

The gauge provides a graphic indication
of the level of oil in the engine.
When the ignition key is turned to the
MAR position, the display fig. 98 -
fig. 99 shows the oil level by turning
on/off five symbols.
The gradual switching off of the
symbols indicates a decreasing oil level.Four or five symbols light up to indicate
a sufficient level of oil in the sump. If
the fifth symbol is not lit, this does not
indicate a fault or that insufficient oil
is present in the sump.
If the oil level is lower than the minimum
required value, the display shows a
dedicated message indicating minimum
engine oil level and the need for a
top-up.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct oil
quantity, always check using the
dipstick (see paragraph “Checking
levels” in the section “Maintenance and
care”).
After a few seconds, the symbol display
indicating the amount of engine oil
disappears and:
When the next scheduled servicing
intervention is approaching, the time

What it means What to do
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds. The warning light turns on when the engine
is overheated.
The display shows the dedicated message.In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off
the engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait
for the engine to cool down, then slowly and carefully
open the cap, top up with coolant and check that the
level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the
reservoir itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If,
when restarting, the warning light switches on again,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g.
in high-performance driving): slow down and, if the
warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3
minutes with the engine running and slightly
accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation,
then stop the engine. Check that the coolant level is
correct as described above.
