REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
fig. 42

This can work only when the key is turned
to MAR.

The function stops when the stalk is re-
leased.

Turning the twist switch from O to

will

operate the rear window wiper as follows:
❒ intermittent operation if the wind-

screen wiper is off;

❒ synchronised operation (but with half-

stroke frequency) when the windscreen
wiper is on;

❒ continuous operation with reverse en-

gaged and function on.

Do not use the rear window
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice. In such condi-
tions, the rear window wiper

may be subjected to excessive stress,
prompting intervention from the mo-
tor protection which prevents opera-
tion for a few seconds. If operation is
not restored, even after turning the key
and restarting the engine, go to a Fiat
Dealership.

The rear window wiper will run in con-
tinuous mode when the windscreen wiper
is on and reverse gear is engaged.

Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(temporary position) will activate the rear
window washer jet.

Keeping the stalk pushed for more than
half a second will also activate the rear
window wiper.

Smart wash function is activated when the
stalk is released, like for the windscreen
wiper.
