Activation
Move the right lever 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 B fig. 35 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. The next time the
vehicle is started (key turned to MAR), the sensor
is not reactivated. To activate the sensor, move
the stalk upwards or downwards and then to
central position. Rain sensor activation will be
indicated by at least one wiper “stroke” even if the
windscreen is dry.
The rain sensor is able to recognise, and
automatically adjust itself in the presence of the
following conditions:
❒presence of dirt on the controlled surface (salt,
dirt, etc.);
❒presence of streaks of water caused by the worn
window wiper blades;
❒difference between day and night.
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
must be
cleaned.

REAR WINDOW WASHER/ WIPER
It can be operated only with the ignition key
turned to MAR.
Activation
Turn the ring nut B fig. 35 from
to
to operate
the rear window wiper as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the windscreen 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, rear window wiping will be continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(unstable position) the rear window washer jet
will activate. Keep the stalk pushed for more than
half a second to activate the rear window wiper
as well. Releasing the stalk will activate the smart
washing function, as described for the windscreen
wiper.Deactivation
The function stops when the stalk is released.
Do not use the rear window wiper to
remove layers of snow or ice. In these
conditions, the windscreen wipers may
be submitted to excessive effort resulting in
the motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation being inhibited for a few seconds. If
operation is not restored, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
