68) 69)
To ensure the best possible performance,
the air conditioning system must be
checked and undergo maintenance at an
Alfa Romeo Dealership at the beginning
of the summer.
WINDSCREEN WIPER
Raising the windscreen wiper blades
("Service position" function)
The "Service position" function allows the
driver to replace the windscreen wiper
blades more easily. It is also
recommended to activate this function
when it is snowing and to make it easier
to remove any dirt deposits in the area
where the blades are normally
positioned, when washing.
Activation of the function
To activate this function disable the
windscreen wiper (ring nut fig. 151 in
position O) before setting the ignition
device to STOP.
This function can only be activated within
2 minutes of setting the ignition device
to STOP.
To activate this function, move the lever
upwards (unstable position) for at least
three seconds.
151
If, after using the function, the ignition
device is set back to ON with the blades
in a position other than rest position (at
the base of the windscreen), they will only
return to rest position following a
command given using the stalk (stalk
upwards, into unstable position) or when
a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h) is exceeded.
Replacing the windscreen wiper blades
Proceed as follows:
raise the wiper arm, press tab
fig. 152 of the attachment spring and
remove the blade from the arm;
152
fit the new blade, inserting the tab in
the dedicated housing in the arm and
checking that it is locked;
lower the wiper arm onto the
windscreen.

IMPORTANT Do not operate the
windscreen wiper with the blades lifted
from the windscreen.
Windscreen washer
The window washer nozzles are fixed. If
there is no jet of fluid, firstly check that
there is fluid in the reservoir (see
paragraph "Engine compartment" in this
chapter).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not
clogged; use a needle to unblock them if
necessary.
