ficult to get through nar-
row gaps, fold it from po-
sition 1 to position 2 (fig. 15).

WARNING LIGHTS
The warning lights will come on in
the following cases:
LOW ENGINE
OIL PRESSURE (red)
When the pressure of the
engine oil falls below the normal level.
When the key is turned to MAR, the
light comes on but should go out the
moment the engine is started.
A delay in the light going out is only
acceptable if the engine is idling.
If the engine has been taxed heavily,
the light might flash when idling but
should go out on accelerating slightly.
v
BATTERY NOT
RECHARGED
PROPERLY (red)
When there is a fault in the current
generating system.
Contact a LANCIA Dealership as
soon as possible to prevent draining
the battery.
The warning lamp will light up when
the ignition key is turned to MAR, but
should go out as soon as the engine
has started.
w
If the warning lamp v
lights up while the car is
moving, switch the engine
off and get in touch with a LANCIA
Dealership.
HANDBRAKE ON/
LOW BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL (red)
In three cases:
1.When the handbrake is engaged.
2.When the brake fluid level falls be-
low the minimum.
3.With the >warning light to indi-
cate an EBD electronic brake force
corrector failure.
x
If the xwarning light
comes on when travelling,
check whether the hand-
brake is engaged. If the warning
light stays on and the handbrake
is not engaged, stop immediately
and contact a LANCIA Dealership.
AIRBAG MALFUNCTION
(red)
When the system is ineffi-
cient.
û
The instrument panel
warning light should come
on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR and go out after ap-
proximately four seconds. Imme-

LANCIA CODE
(amber)
In three ways (with ignition
key at MAR):
1.A single flash - indicates that the
key code has been recognised. The en-
gine can be started.
2.A constant light - indicates that the
key code has not been recognised. To
start the engine, follow the emergency
startup procedure described in the “In
an emergency” section.
3.A flashing light - indicates that the
car is not protected by the immo-
biliser system. The engine can be
started however.
¢
ABS (ANTI-LOCKING
SYSTEM) FAILURE
(amber)
When the ABS system is inefficient.
The normal braking system continues
to work but you should have the car
seen to at a LANCIA Dealershipas
soon as you can.
The warning lamp will light up when
you turn the key to MAR, but it
should go out as soon as the engine
starts.
>
The car is fitted with an
electronic brake distribu-
tor (EBD). If warning lights
>andxlight up simultaneously
when the engine is running, this
indicates an EBD fault. This
means that violent braking could
cause early locking of the rear
wheels causing the car to skid.
Drive very carefully to the nearest
LANCIA Dealership to have the
system checked.EOBD SELF-
DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
(amber)
In normal conditions, the warning
light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to MARand should go
out as soon as the engine is started.
The initial lighting up shows that the
warning light is working properly.
If the warning light either stays on or
comes on while travelling:
1.Fixed light - warning of a fuel
feed/ignition system failure which
If only warning light>
switches on when the en-
gine is running, this usu-
ally indicates an ABS fault. In such
cases the braking system is still ef-
ficient, although the anti-locking
device does not function. The EBD
system may also be less efficient.
Go to a LANCIA Dealership imme-
diately, taking care not to brake
suddenly, and have the system
checked.HAZARD LIGHTS
(red) (flashing)
When the hazard lights are
switched on.

Incorrect use of the elec-
tric windows could be
dangerous. Before and
when pressing the switches, always
make sure that passengers are not
liable to injury either directly by
the movement of the windows or
by personal effects being dragged
along or knocked by the windows.
Always remove the ignition key
when getting out of the car to make
sure that the electric windows can-
not be accidentally operated and
constitute a hazard for passengers
remaining in the car.
The door handle on the passenger
side has a button to control that par-
ticular window. IMPORTANTFor versions with
door locking/unlocking remote con-
trol, see the “Lancia CODE system -
Door lock/unlock remote control”
paragraph at the beginning of this
chapter.
IMPORTANTIf one of the doors is
not shut properly or there is a failure
in the system, the central locking fea-
ture will not work and, after some at-
tempts, the device stops working for
around two minutes. In these two min-
utes the doors can be locked or un-
locked manually without the electrical
system coming into play. After the two
minutes, the control unit is ready to
receive commands once more.
If the reason for the malfunction has
been removed, the device will start to
work properly again. If not, it will cut
out once more.ELECTRIC WINDOWS
The electric windows are controlled
by two buttons situated in the inside
handle of the driver’s door (fig. 71).
They work when the ignition key is at
MAR:
A- left window;
B- right window.
Press the switch to open the window,
and pull it up to close it: this means
the window cannot be closed acci-
dentally.
On the LX and 1.2
16VM M Nredver-
sions, if the driver’s window switch is
pressed for about one second, the win-
dow will work automatically: it will
stop when it is fully opened or closed
or when the switch is pressed again.

ver’s seat.
To lift the tailgate, use the grip lo-
cated between the two number plate
lights.When the tailgate is closed, it will
lock automatically, and can only be
reopened by using the key or pulling
leverA (fig. 73)inside the car.

Do not work boot release
lever when the car is in
motion.
The addition of objects to
the rear parcel shelf or
tailgate (loudspeakers,
spoiler, etc.) may prevent the gas-
filled struts at the sides of the tail-
gate working properly. Items
arranged on the rear window shelf
could be thrown forwards and in-
jure passengers should you brake
sharply.

P4C00037
When using the boot,
make sure the load you are
carrying does not exceed
the permitted weight (see the
“Technical specifications” sec-
tion). Also ensure the items in the
boot are arranged properly to pre-
vent them being thrown forward
and injurying passengers should
you brake sharply.
