DASHBOARD AND CONTROLS
Activation
Move the right stalk ring nut to
≤
fig. 46
.
The activation of the sensor is signalled by
a “stroke” to show that the command has
been acquired.
Through the setup menu it is possible to
increase the sensitivity of the rain sensor.
The increasing of the rain sensor sensi-
tivity is signalled by a “stroke” to show
that the command has been acquired.
If the windscreen washer is used with the
rain sensor activated, the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed, after which the rain
sensor resumes its normal automatic op-
eration.
Deactivation
Move the stalk ring nut from position
≤
fig. 46
or turn the ignition key to
STOP
.
At the next start-up (key at
MAR
), the
sensor will not be reactivated even if the
ring nut is at
≤
fig. 46
. To reactivate
the sensor, move the ring nut from posi-
tion
≤
to any other position and then
return it to 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:
❒
impurities on the surface (salt, dirt,
etc.);
❒
difference between day and night.
IMPORTANT Streaks of water may cause
the blades to move when not desired.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the rear
view mirror in contact with the wind-
screen and has the purpose of automati-
cally adjusting the frequency of the
windscreen wiper strokes depending on
the intensity of the rain during intermit-
tent operation.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sen-
sor area clean.
