Never use the window
wiper to remove ice or
snow from the wind-
screen. In these conditions, the
wiper is submitted to excessive
effort that results in motor pro-
tection cutting in and wiper op-
eration inhibition for few seconds
as a consequence. If operation is
not restored contact Alfa Romeo
Authorized Services.
