DUPLICATE KEYS
If you ask for extra keys, remember
that all the keys, both the new ones
and those you already possess, must
be stored in the memory (up to a
maximum of 7). Go directly to your
nearestLANCIA Dealership, taking
with you the burgundy “master” key,
all the keys in your possession and the
CODE card. The LANCIA Dealer-
shipmay ask you to demonstrate that
you own the car.
The codes of any keys that are not
available when the new storage pro-
cedure is carried out will be deleted
from the memory to prevent any lost
keys being used to start the car.
The burgundy key, plus
all the other keys, and the
CODE card must be
handed over to the new owner
when selling the car.Ministerial homologation
With respect to the legislation in
force in each country on the use of ra-
dio frequencies:
– the market specific homologation
codes are given in the chapter “Ac-
cessory installation”;
– the homologation code is printed
on the ignition key-remote control for
the markets which require it.DOOR LOCK/UNLOCK
REMOTE CONTROL (fig. 3)
The remote control is built into the
ignition key. It consists of a button C
and a LED D. The button operates
the control and the LED flashes while
the transmitter is sending the code to
the receiver.
This a radio-frequency remote con-
trol and must be used close to the car.

The key can turn through four posi-
tions(fig. 5):

moved and the steering column is
locked. Some electrical devices can be
used (e.g. sound system, central door
lock, etc.).

P4C00324
If the ignition switch has
been tampered with (e.g.
someone has tried to steal
your car), get a LANCIA Dealer-
ship to make sure it is still func-
tioning properly before you start
driving again.
Always remove the key
when leaving the car so
that the controls cannot be
accidentally activated. Engage the
handbrake, and if the car is facing
uphill engage the first gear too.
With the car facing downhill en-
gage the reverse gear. Never leave
children alone in the car.

CHANGING THE BATTERIES
(fig. 4)
Change the remote control batteries
when the LED on the remote control
flashes once only when pressed.
Change the batterie with a similar
type as follows: open the plastic cov-
ers; insert the new batterie respecting
the polarity shown; close the plastic
covers.
Used batteries are an en-
vironmental hazard. Dis-
pose of them in appropri-
ate containers as prescribed by the
law. Alternatively, take the batter-
ies to a LANCIA Dealership who

SEAT BELTS
HOW TO USE THE SEAT BELTS
(for the front and back side seats)
(fig. 16)
Pull the seat belt out gently; if the
belt jams, let it rewind for a short
stretch, then pull it out again without
jerking.
To fasten the seat belts, take the
tongue of fastener Aand push it into
buckleBuntil you hear it click.The lower part of the front seat belts
slides on a bar to make it easier for
you to get hold of the belt when
putting it on.
Press button Cto unfasten the belts.
Guide the belt with your hand as it
rewinds to prevent it twisting.
The belt unwinds from the reel and
automatically adjusts to fit the pas-
senger’s body, allowing him or her to
move in complete freedom. When the
car is parked on a slope the reel may
lock. This is quite normal.
The reel mechanism also prevents
the webbing coming out when it is
jerked or if the car brakes sharply, is
in a collision or when taking bends at
high speed.ADJUSTING THE FRONT SEAT
BELT HEIGHT (fig. 17)
For maximum safety,
keep the back of your seat
upright, lean back into it
and make sure the seat belt fits
closely across your chest and hips.
fig. 17
P4C00050
Make the height adjust-
ment when the car is sta-
tionary.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belt to fit the person wearing it. This
could greatly reduce the risk of injury
in the case of collision.

The webbing must not be
twisted. The upper section
must pass across the
shoulder and chest diagonally. The
lower part must fit closely across
the passengers’ hips and not the
abdomen, to prevent them sliding
forward (fig. 20). Do not use clips,
fasteners, etc. to prevent the belt
adhering to the passenger’s body.
Make sure all seat belts
(both front and back) are
fastened at all times! You
increase the risk of serious injury
or death in a collision if you travel
with the belts unfastened even if
your car is fitted with the airbag
system.

If warning lamp Alights up, it
means that the engine coolant is too
hot.
Under normal conditions, the needle
of the temperature gauge should be-
tween 1/4 and 3/4 of the scale. If it
approaches the red section it means
the engine is being overtaxed and you
should reduce your demands on it.
IMPORTANTThe gauge will point
to low temperature and the excessive
temperature warning light Awill
come on to indicate a fault in the sys-
tem. Contact a LANCIA Dealership
to have the system checked.

CLOCK
Press control A (fig. 36)to adjust the
hour.
Press control Bto adjust the minutes.
Each time one of the control buttons
is pressed, the hours (A) or the min-
utes (B) will move forwards one unit. Even travelling too slowly when the
outside temperature is very hot can
cause the needle to approach the red
sector. In this case it is better to stop
and turn off the engine. After a few
moments you can start the engine
again and accelerate slightly.FUEL GAUGE (fig. 35)
If reserve warning light Bcomes on
it means there are between 5 and 8
litres of fuel left in the tank.
Do not drive when the tank is nearly
empty: possible changes in fuel deliv-
ery could damage the catalyser.
If the situation persists
even after the measures
you have taken, turn off
the engine and have the car seen to
at a LANCIA Dealership.
