Sensor Failure - Alfa Romeo 8C Spider Owner's Manual

CAUTION
Before cleaning the front
windscreen (for example in service
stations) make sure the rain sensor is
deactivated or that the key is turned
to STOP. The rain sensor must be
deactivated also when washing the
vehicle by hand or in automatic car
washes.
WARNING: If there is ice or snow on the front
windscreen, do not activate the rain sensor to
avoid damaging the wiper motor.

SENSOR FAILURE

When the rain sensor is activated, in the event
that it is malfunctioning, the windscreen wiper
will be turned on in intermittent mode and the
sensing range will be set by the user, regardless
of whether or not there is rain on the windscreen.
A failure message will be displayed on the
instrument panel.
In this case, we recommend that you deactivate
the rain sensor and turn on the windscreen wiper,
if necessary, in continuous mode. As soon as
possible, contact an Authorised Service Centre
of the Manufacturer's Network.
