Never 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 and the motor protection, which prevents
operation for a few seconds, may intervene. If
operation is not restored, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
"Smart washing" functionfig. 38
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable
position) to operate the windscreen washer.
Keep the stalk pulled, with just one movement, to
operate the washer jet and the windscreen wiper;
the latter automatically 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.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The rain sensor A fig. 39 is located behind the
interior rear view mirror in contact with the
windscreen and has the purpose of automatically
adjusting the frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes depending on the intensity of the rain during
intermittent operation.The sensor has an adjustment range that varies
progressively from wiper still (no stroke) when the
windscreen is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed
(slow continuous operation) with intense rain.

Activation
Move the right stalk down by one click.
The activation of the sensor is signalled by a "stroke"
to show that the command has been acquired.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
By turning ring nut F fig. 37 is it possible to increase
the sensitivity of the rain sensor to obtain a more
rapid variation between wiper still (no stroke) when
the windscreen is dry, to wiper at first continuous
speed (slow continuous operation).
The increasing of the rain sensor sensitivity is also
signalled by a stroke of the wipers.
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
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
At the next start-up (key at MAR-ON), the sensor
will not be reactivated even if the stalk is at B fig. 37.
To activate the sensor, move the stalk to position
A or C and then back to position B.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by at least
one wiper “stroke” even if the windscreen is dry.
Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car wash.
Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.
WARNING
Make sure the device is switched off
whenever the windscreen is being
cleaned.
REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
It can be operated only with the ignition key turned
to MAR-ON. The function stops when the stalk is
released.
Turning the stalk ring nut A fig. 40 from position
to position
will operate the rear window wiper
as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the rear window wiper
is not operating;
❒in synchronous mode (at half the speed of the
windscreen wiper) when the windscreen wiper
is operating;
❒in continuous mode with reverse gear engaged and
the control active.
With the windscreen wiper on and reverse gear
engaged the rear window wiper is activated in
continuous mode. Pushing the stalk towards the
dashboard (unstable position) will activate the rear
window washer jet.

CRUISE CONTROL(constant speed regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving assistance
device which allows the car to be driven at a chosen
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,
straight roads with few variations (e.g. motorways),
without having to depress the accelerator pedal.
The use of this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic is not therefore recommended. Do not use
the device in town.
TURNING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring nut A fig. 42 to the ON position.
The device must only be switched on in 4th gear or
higher. When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the vehicle speed may slightly exceed the
preset one.The activation is indicated by the turning on of
warning light
on the instrument panel (together
with the dedicated message on the display) (see
“Warning lights and messages” chapter).
STORING THE VEHICLE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 42 to ON and press the
accelerator pedal so that the car reaches the
desired speed;
❒turn the ring nut B to (+) for at least three
seconds, then release it. The vehicle speed is now
memorised and you can therefore release the
accelerator pedal.
If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate simply by depressing the accelerator pedal;
when you release the pedal, the vehicle goes back
to the speed set previously.
RESTORING STORED SPEED
If the device has been switched off, for example by
depressing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised
speed can be restored as follows:
❒accelerate progressively until a speed close to that
stored is reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time that the
speed was memorised (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
❒press button C fig. 42.
