These labels bear symbols that
remind you of the precautions to be
taken as regards that particular
component.
A list of the symbols to be found on

name of the component to which it
relates at the side of it.
These symbols are divided into the
following four categories: danger,
prohibition, warning and obligation.DANGER SYMBOLS

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR 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 pre-
vent any lost or stolen keys being
used to start the engine.IMPORTANTIf symbol Ylights
up when the car is running:
1) If the symbol lights up together
with the message “VEHICLE PRO-
TECTION SYSTEM FAULT”, this
means that the system is running a
self-test (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
The first time you stop, you can test
the system as follows: switch the en-
gine off by turning the ignition key to
STOPthen turn the key back to
MAR: the symbol will light up and go
out in about 1 second. If the symbol
remains on, repeat the above proce-
dure, leaving the key at STOPfor
longer than 30 seconds. If the prob-
lem persists, contact your Lancia
Dealership.
2) If the symbol stays on, this
means that the code has not been
recognised. In this case, turn the key
to STOP and then back to MAR. If
the engine remains immobilised, try
with the other keys provided with
the car. If you are still unable to
start the engine, carry out the emer-
gency procedure (see chapter “In an
emergency”), and contact your
Lancia Dealership. THE KEY
The car is delivered with two
copies of the key A(fig. 7) with
metal insert and power-assisted
opening with built-in remote control
for remote door opening/closing,
boot/tailgate opening and switching
the electronic alarm on/off.

FUNCTIONS THAT CAN BE ACTUATED WITH THE METAL INSERT OF THE KEY
The metal insert of the key allows to control the functions that can be modified directly by the user, by means of the
CONNECT setting menu, or by the Lancia Dealership. The following table lists the system options and the settings pro-
vided when the car is delivered to the customer.

OPENING THE TAILGATE
The tailgate can be opened from
the outside by pressing the remote
control button E (fig. 9), even when
the electronic alarm is on.
One single short pressure of the
button will switch the boot alarm
system off and release the lock: the
tailgate can therefore be opened
from the outside by pressing the
boot button. A prolonged pressure
(more than 1 second) of the button
will switch the boot alarm system off
and open the tailgate, which will
partially lift.
The opening of the tailgate is
accompanied by two direction indi-
cator flashes.When tailgate opening is actuated,
the alarm system disconnects the
boot sensor and the direction indica-
tors flash twice (except for the ver-
sions of certain markets).
When the tailgate is closed again,
press button D(fig. 9) to restore
locking and control functions; the
direction indicators will flash twice
(except for the versions of certain
markets).
If the tailgate is not open within 30
seconds after actuating the boot
unlock control, the tailgate lock will
be re-locked and the alarm system
will be reactivated.AUTOMATICALLY ACTUATED
FUNCTIONS
The system automatically controls
the following functions (settings that
cannot be modified):
– boot locking if, within 30 seconds
after boot unlocking, it will not be
opened;
– possible unlocking of all the door
locks, in case of impact with actua-
tion of the inertia switch;
– lock release and tailgate opening
(actuated by the button inside the
car);
– door opening/closing by the but-
tons inside the car;
– disconnection of all services when
the key is turned to STOP, exclud-
ing sound system, window regula-
tors, sunroof and internal lighting
until doors are opened;
– progressive switching on/off of
internal lights;
– light indication of boot open/
closed.

The other recognition system set-
tings that can be enabled/disabled
are:
– automatic locking of doors and
boot.
As regards the setting of the recog-
nition system customizations, refer
to the CONNECT supplement.
FAILURE INDICATION
The presence of anomalies in the
Keyless System is indicated by the
lighting of symbol Yon the instru-
ment display, together with the mes-
sage “VEHICLE PROTECTION
SYSTEM FAULT”.
IMPORTANT In case of fault, con-
tact your Lancia Dealership.
Before and during auto-
matic actuation of the
window regulators and
sunroof, always make sure that
the passengers and the persons
standing near the car are not
exposed to the risk of injures that
may be caused either by the mov-
ing windows and sunroof or by
objects dragged or hit by the
same. To actuate central opening of the
windows and sunroof, keep the
remote control button B(fig. 25)
depressed for more than 2 seconds
after opening the doors: both the win-
dow regulators and the sunroof will be
actuated until they are fully opened or
until the button is released.
This function can be used to aerate
the passenger’s compartment before
getting into the car parked in the sun.
IMPORTANT Do not lay the CID
device outside the car on the sunroof,
to avoid a fake identification of the
CID itself as if inside the car. It is rec-
ommend to carry about with you the
CID device (e.g. into a pocket). SYSTEM SETTINGS
The CONNECT enables to cus-
tomize certain functions of the
Keyless System recognition system,
through the settings that can be
selected on the CONNECT display.
The “central unlock” and “driver’s
door unlock” functions of the central
locking can be set also for the
Keyless System and operate as fol-
lows:
– central unlock: all the car doors
are unlocked simultaneously and
access is possible through every door
– driver’s door unlock: access is
possible through the driver’s door
whereas the other doors remain
locked, thus preventing un-autho-
rized persons from getting into the
car. In this case, the led on the dri-
ver’s door panel lights up (green
colour) whereas the leds on the other
doors remain off.
When “unlocking driver’s door” is
set, it is anyhow possible to unlock all
the doors, to enable access to passen-
gers, by pushing button B(fig. 18) on
CID device or, after opening the dri-
ver’s door, by pushing the central
unlock button existing on the door
panel.
