function: operation is limited to the

time for which the stalk is held in this

position. When released, the stalk will

return to its default position and the

windscreen wiper will be stopped.

This function is useful to remove small

deposits of dust from the windscreen,

or morning dew.

WARNING This function does not

activate the windscreen washer;

windscreen washer fluid will not

therefore be sprayed onto the

windscreen. To spray windscreen

washer fluid onto the windscreen, the

washing function must be used.

With the ring nut (1) fig. 35 in position

, the windscreen wiper is not

activated. In position , the pause time

between the strokes of the windscreen

wiper is 10 seconds, independently

of the car speed. In position , the

pause time between two strokes is set

according to the car speed: when the

speed increases, the time between two

strokes decreases.
In position

LO

or

HI

, the windscreen

wiper moves continuously, i.e. without

a pause between two strokes.

“Smart washing” function

Pull the stalk towards the steering

wheel (unstable position) to operate the

windscreen washer.

When the stalk is held pulled for longer

than half a second, the windscreen

wiper is moved with active control.

When the driver releases the stalk, the

windscreen wiper makes three strokes.
Afterwards, if the control is in position

, the washing cycle is concluded by

one last stroke after a 6 second pause.
If the position is

LO

or

HI

, the smart

washing function is not carried out.

WARNING If the lever is activated

for less than half a second, only the

windscreen washer jet is activated. Do

not prolong the activation of the "Smart

Washing" function for more than 30

seconds. Do not activate the screen

washer control when the reservoir is

empty.

“Service Position” function

This function makes it possible to

replace the wipers or protect them in

conditions of ice and/or snow.
It can only be activated after stopping

the engine.

explicitly requested within two minutes

of stopping the engine, when the

wipers have correctly returned to the

parking position.
The function can be activated by

turning the ring to position

and

28

moving the stalk upwards, to the MIST

position, more than three times.

The activations are used to position

the wipers as preferred. The function is

deactivated when the vehicle is turned

Air distribution selection

By pressing the buttons

/

/

, it

is possible to set one of the 5 possible

air distributions manually:

Air flow to the windscreen

and front side window vents to

demist/defrost them.

Airflow at central and side

dashboard vents to ventilate the chest

and the face during the hot season.

Airflow to the front and rear

footwell vents. This air distribution

setting heats the passenger

compartment most quickly, giving a

prompt sensation of warmth.

+

Air flow distributed between

footwell diffusers (hotter air) and central

and side dashboard vents (cooler air).

This air distribution setting is useful in

spring and autumn on sunny days.

+

Air flow distributed between

footwell vents and windscreen and

front side vents. This distribution setting

allows the passenger compartment to

be warmed effectively and prevents the

windows from misting.
In AUTO mode, the climate control

system automatically manages air

distribution (the LEDs on buttons 7

are off). When set manually, the air

distribution is indicated by the LEDs on

the selected buttons switching on.
In combined function mode the relevant

function is enabled simultaneously

with those already set by pressing

the corresponding button. If a button

whose function is already active is

pressed, the operation is cancelled and

the corresponding LED switches off.

To restore automatic control of the air

distribution after a manual selection,

press the AUTO button.

Start&Stop

(where provided)
The automatic climate control system

manages the Start&Stop system

(engine off when vehicle speed is equal

to 0 km/h) to ensure adequate comfort

inside the vehicle.
When the Start&Stop system is on

(engine off and car at a standstill), the

automatic recirculation management

is turned off always taking air in from

outside, to reduce the probability

of the windows misting up (as the

compressor is off).

DUALDRIVE

ELECTRIC POWER

STEERING

This only operates with the key turned

to MAR and the engine started. The

electric steering allows the force

required at the steering wheel to be

adjusted to suit driving conditions.

WARNING When turning the ignition

key quickly, full power steering

functionality can be achieved after a

few seconds.

WARNING During parking manoeuvres

requiring a lot of steering, the steering

may become harder; this is normal and

is due to the intervention of the system

to protect the electric steering motor

from overheating. No repair intervention

is needed in this case. When the car

is used again, the power steering will

work normally again.

WARNING The Dualdrive electric

power steering provides an electronic

damping effect when approaching the

end of travel. In some manoeuvring

conditions, the steering wheel may

perform an additional small rotation

until reaching its mechanical stop.This

behaviour is normal and is intended

to prevent excessive impacts with the

mechanical components located inside

the device.

POWER STEERING

P2000317

The activation of the function is

signalled by a visual warning (CITY) on

the instrument panel or, based on the

version, on the display.
When the CITY function is on, the

steering wheel effort is lighter, making

parking easier: therefore, this function

is particularly useful for driving in city

centres.

WARNING

32)

It is absolutely forbidden to carry

out any after-market operation involving

steering system or steering column

modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft

device) that could adversely affect

the warranty and also result in non-

compliance of the car with type-approval

requirements.

33)

Before performing any maintenance

operations, always turn off the engine and

remove the key from the ignition to lock

the steering column (especially when the

car wheels are not touching the ground). If

this is not possible (for example if the key

needs to be turned to MAR or the engine

must be running), remove the main fuse

that protects the electric power steering.
