The wiper stops working three strokes after the stalk is
released. A further stroke 6 seconds later completes
the wiping operation.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the rear view mirror
in contact with the windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjusting the frequency of the windscreen
wiper strokes depending on the intensity of the rain
during intermittent operation.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
Activation
Move the twist switch on the right-hand stalk to
≤
fig.
38. The activation of the sensor is signalled by a wiper
stroke. Through the setup menu it is possible to
increase the sensitivity of the rain sensor. The increasing
of the rain sensor sensitivity is signalled by a “stroke” to
show the command has been acquired. If the
windscreen washer is used with the rain sensor
activated, the normal washing cycle is performed, after
which the rain sensor resumes its normal automatic
operation.
Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to excessive
stress and the motor protection which prevents
operation for a few seconds may intervene. If
operation is not restored, even after turning the
key and restarting the engine, go to an Abarth
Dealership.
When released, the stalk returns to its default position
and the wipers automatically switch off.
With the twist switch at
≤
, the windscreen wiper will
automatically adapt to the speed of the car.
IMPORTANT Replace the wiper blades as specified in
the “Maintenance and care” section.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable
position) to operate the windscreen washer.
Keeping the lever pulled for more than half a second,
with just one movement it is possible to operate the
washer jet and the wiper at the same time.
