Operation Manual

With the windscreen wiper on, engaging reverse gear
will automatically turn the rear window wiper on, in
continuous slow operation. Operation stops when
reverse is disengaged.
"Smart washing" function: push the stalk
towards the dashboard (unstable position)
to operate the rear window washer.
Keep the stalk pressed, with just one movement, to
operate the rear window washer jet and the rear
window wiper itself; the latter automatically turns on
if you keep the stalk pressed for more than half a
second.
The rear window wiper stops operating a few
strokes after releasing the stalk; a further "cleaning
stroke", after a few seconds, completes the wiping
operation.
Do not use the rear window wiper to
removelayersofsnoworice.Inthese
conditions, the rear window wipers may
be submitted to excessive effort resulting in the
motor protection cutting in and wiper operation
being inhibited for a few seconds. If rear window
wiper operation is not restored, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
ROOF LIGHTS
FRONT ROOF LIGHT
The lens can be set to three positions:
❒ right side pressed: light always on
❒ left side pressed: light always off
❒ central position (neutral): the light switches on and
off when the doors are opened or closed.
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make
sure that the switch is in the central position: ensure
that lights are off with doors closed in order to
avoid draining the battery.
On some versions, the lights switch on and off only
when the front driver side door is opened or closed.
When the doors are released with the remote
control, a timer will be activated for about 10
seconds. When locking the doors using the remote
control, the roof light goes off.
Roof light timing (lens central position)
Three different switching-on modes are provided:
❒ when opening one door a three-minute timer will
start, which restarts each time a door is opened;
❒ a timer of about 10 seconds will start when the
ignition key is removed within two minutes from
turning the engine off;
❒ a timer of about 10 seconds will start when the
doors are opened (either by remote control or
key in driver’s door).
