Never use the window wiper to remove ice or snow from the windscreen. In these conditions, the
wiper is submitted to excessive effort that results in motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation inhibition for few seconds as a consequence. If operation is not restored contact Fiat
Dealership.

Turning the knurled ring (F) it is possible to increase the sensitivity of the
rain sensor.
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain sensor is signalled by a control
and acquisition “stroke”.

five seconds), at the end of which the rain sensor resumes its normal
automatic function.

adjustment knurled ring.
Rain sensor activation is indicated by a wiper “stroke”.
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.);
❒difference between day and night.
