WINDOW WASHING
The right stalk fig. 44 controls windscreen
wiper/washer and heated rear window
wiper/washer operation.
WINDSCREEN WASHER/
WIPER
The device can only work when the igni-
tion key is at MAR.
The stalk ring nut can be moved to four
different positions:
O
windscreen wiper off;
≤ intermittent;
≥ continuous slow;
¥ continuos fast.
Moving the stalk to A (unstable position)
operation is limited to the time the stalk
is held in this position. When the stalk is
released it returns to its original position
automatically stopping the wiper.
Never use the window wiper
to remove ice or snow from
the windscreen. In these con-
ditions, the wiper is submitted
to excessive effort that results in motor
protection cutting in and wiper opera-
tion inhibition for few seconds as a con-
sequence. If operation is not restored
(also after restarting the car by the ig-
nition key) contact Fiat Dealership.
With ring nut at ≤, wiping speed is au-
tomatically adapted to the car speed.
IMPORTANT Replace wiper blades as
specified in section “Car maintenance”.
