“Smart washing” function fig. 52

Pulling the stalk towards the steering

wheel (unstable position) operates the

windscreen washer.

Keeping the stalk pulled, with just one

movement it is possible to operate the

washer jet and the wiper at the same time;

indeed, the latter comes into action au-

tomatically if the stalk is pulled for more

than half a second.

The wiper stops working a few strokes af-

ter releasing the stalk; a further “cleaning

stroke”, after a few seconds, completes

the wiping operation.

RAIN SENSOR (where provided)

The rain sensor A-fig. 53 is behind the

driving mirror in contact with the wind-

screen and has the purpose of automati-

cally adjust, during the intermittent oper-

ation, the frequency of the windscreen

wiper strokes as to the rain intensity.

The sensor has a range of adjustment that

gradually varies between wiper stationary

(no wiping) when the windscreen is dry,

to wiper at first continuous speed (con-

tinuous slow) with heavy rain.

Activation

Move the right-hand stalk downwards by

one position.

The activation of the rain sensor is sig-

nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”.

IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the

sensor area.

Turning the knurled ring F-fig. 51 it is

possible to increase the sensitivity of the

rain sensor, obtaining a quicker change

from stationary (no wiping) when the

windscreen is dry, to first continuous

speed (continuous slow).

The increase of the sensitivity of the rain

sensor is signalled by a control and acqui-

sition “stroke”.

Operating the windscreen washer with

the rain sensor activated the normal wash-

ing cycle is performed at the end of which

the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-

matic function.
