If the lever is put in the “AUTO”
position, the rain sensor (A) will detect
the extent of rain (or snow, other
moisture, dust, etc.) and the wipers will
operate automatically. Keep the lever in
the “OFF” position if the windscreen is
dirty and the weather is dry. Wiper
operation under these conditions can
scratch the windscreen and damage
the wipers.

the wipers, this operation of the wipers
does not take place even if the lever is
put in the “AUTO” position when the
vehicle is stationary and the ambient
temperature is about 0 °C or lower.

NOTE Do not cover the sensor by
affixing a sticker or label to the
windscreen. Also, do not put any
water-repellent coating on the
windscreen. The rain sensor would not
be able to detect the extent of rain, and
the wipers might stop working normally.
In the following cases, the rain sensor
may be malfunctioning. For further
information, we recommend you to
consult a Fiat Dealership:
When the wipers operate at a
constant interval despite changes in the
extent of rain.
When the wipers do not operate
even though it is raining.
NOTE The wipers may automatically
operate when things such as insects or
foreign objects are affixed to the
windscreen on top of the rain sensor or
when the windscreen is frozen. Objects
affixed to the windscreen will stop the
wipers when the wipers cannot remove
them. To operate the wipers again,
move the lever in the “LO” or “HI”
position. Also, the wipers may operate
automatically due to strong direct
sunlight or electromagnetic wave. To
stop the wipers, place the lever in the
“OFF” position.
NOTE Contact a Fiat Dealership when
replacing the windscreen or reinforcing
the glass around the sensor.To adjust the sensitivity of the rain
sensor
With the lever in the “AUTO” (rain
sensor) position, it is possible to adjust
the sensitivity of the rain sensor by
turning the knob (B).

Windscreen washer
The washer fluid will be sprayed onto
the windscreen by pulling the lever
towards you. The wipers operate
automatically several times while the
washer fluid is being sprayed. On
vehicles equipped with the headlamp
washer, while the headlamps are on,
the headlamp washer will operate once
together with the windscreen washer.Headlamp washer switch
The headlamp washer can be operated
with the ignition switch or the operation
mode in ON or ACC and the lamp
switch at the
position. Push the
button once and the washer fluid will be
sprayed on to the headlamps.
NOTE If the ignition switch or the
operation mode is in ON or ACC and
the headlamps are on, the headlamp
washer operates together with the
windscreen washer the first time the
windscreen washer lever is pulled.Precautions to observe when using
wipers and washers
If the moving wipers become
blocked partway through a sweep by
ice or other deposits on the glass, the
wipers may temporarily stop operating
to prevent the motor from overheating.
In this case, park the vehicle in a safe
place, turn the ignition switch to the
“OFF” position or put the operation
mode in OFF, and then remove the ice
or other deposits. Because the wipers
will start operating again after the wiper
motor cools down, check that the
wipers operate before using them.
Do not use the wipers when the
glass is dry. They may scratch the glass
surface and the blades wear out
prematurely.
Before using the wipers in cold
weather, check that the wiper blades
are not frozen onto the glass. The
motor may burn out if the wipers are
used with the blades frozen onto the
glass.
Avoid using the washer continuously
for more than 20 seconds. Do not
operate the washer when the fluid
reservoir is empty. Otherwise, the motor
may burn out.
Periodically check the level of washer
fluid in the reservoir and refill if required.
During cold weather, add a
recommended washer solution that will

not freeze in the washer reservoir.
Failure to do so could result in loss of
washer function and frost damage to
the system components.
WARNING
63)Do not use the screen wiper to remove
layers of snow or ice from the windscreen.
In such conditions, the windscreen wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress and
the motor cut-out switch, which prevents
operation for a few seconds, may
intervene. If operation is not restored,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
64)Streaks of water may cause
unnecessary blade movements.
65)If the washer is used in cold weather,
the washer fluid sprayed against the glass
may freeze, which may hinder visibility.
Warm the glass with the defroster or rear
window demister before using the washer.
66)With the ignition switch or the
operation mode in ON and the lever in the
“AUTO” position, the wipers may
automatically operate in the situations
described below. If your hands get
trapped, you could suffer injuries or the
wipers could malfunction. Be sure to turn
the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position
or put the operation mode in OFF, or move
lever to the “OFF” position to deactivate
the rain sensor: when cleaning the outside
surface of the windscreen, if you touch or
wipe with a cloth on top of the rain sensor;
when using an automatic car wash; when a
physical shock is applied to the windscreen
or to the rain sensor.
IMPORTANT
21)Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car wash.

Safety mechanism (driver’s window
only)
74) 75) 76)
When the door window is automatically
closed by pulling up the switch fully, if a
hand or head is trapped in the closing
window, it will lower automatically.
Nonetheless, make sure that nobody
puts their head or hand out of the
window when closing the driver’s door
window. The lowered window will
become operational after a few
seconds.NOTE The safety mechanism can be
activated if the driving conditions or
other circumstances cause the driver’s
door window to be subjected to a
physical shock similar to that caused by
a trapped hand or head.
NOTE If the safety mechanism is
activated five or more times in a row,
the safety mechanism will be cancelled
and the door window will not close
correctly. In such a case, the following
procedure should be implemented to
rectify this situation. If the window is
open, repeatedly raise the driver’s door
window switch until that window has
been fully closed. Following this, release
the switch, raise the switch once again
and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should
now be able to operate in the normal
way.
NOTE If the battery terminals are
disconnected or the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the safety
mechanism will be cancelled and the
door window will not automatically
open/close completely. If the window is
open, repeatedly raise the driver’s door
window switch until the window has
been fully closed. Following this, release
the switch, raise the switch once again
and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should
now be able to operate the driver’s door
window in the normal way.
WARNING
69)Incorrect use of the electric windows
may be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that nobody is
exposed to the risk of being injured either
directly by the moving window or through
objects getting caught or by being hit.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key from the ignition switch to avoid the
risk of injury to anyone remaining in the car
due to accidental operation of the electric
windows.
70)Before operating the electric window
control, make sure that nothing is capable
of being trapped (head, hand, finger, etc.).
71)Never leave the vehicle without
removing the key. Never leave a child (or
other person who might not be capable of
safe operation of the electric window
control) in the vehicle alone.
72)A child may tamper with the switch at
the risk of its hands or head being trapped
in the window.
73)When driving with a child in the vehicle,
please press the window lock switch to
disable the passenger’s switches.
74)If the battery terminals are
disconnected or the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the safety mechanism
will be cancelled. If a hand or head got
trapped, a serious injury could result.
75)The safety mechanism is cancelled just
before the window is fully closed. This
allows the window to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no
fingers are trapped in the window.
