exceed the speed of 5 km/h when
the sensor detects rain.
Deactivation
The user can disable automatic wiping
by moving the right steering wheel stalk
to a position other than AUTO.
WARNING
19) If the window needs to be cleaned,
make sure the device is turned off or the
key is on STOP.
20) Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious risk,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
IMPORTANT
4) Never use the screen wiper to remove
layers of snow or ice from the windscreen
glass. In such conditions, the wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress
and the motor cut-out switch, which
prevents operation for a few seconds, may
intervene. If operation is not subsequently
restored, contact an Abarth Dealership.
5) Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
6)
Do not activate the rain sensor or the
rear window wiper when washing the car
in an automatic car wash.
7) Do not use the rear window wiper to
remove layers of snow or ice. In these
conditions, the rear window wiper may
be subjected to excessive stress and
the motor protection, which prevents
operation for a few seconds, may
intervene. If operation is not subsequently
restored, contact an Abarth Dealership.
8) Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen glass.
