AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS SENSOR (daylight sensor)
(where provided)
It detects the changes of the external light intensity of the car
according to the light sensitivity set: greater is the sensitivity, smaller
is the amount of external light necessary to control the switching-on
of the exterior headlights. The daylight sensor sensitivity can be
adjusted with the “Set-up menu” of “multifunction display”.
Activation
Turn the knurled ring to
2A: in this way, the automatic activation of
the side/taillights and dipped beam headlights is simultaneously
enabled according to the external luminosity.
When the daylight sensor is on, the display shows the preset
sensitivity level. During displaying, the sensitivity level can be
adjusted using buttons +and–.
Deactivation
As a result of the sensor control, the dipped beam headlights will
switch off and, after about 10 seconds, sidelights will switch off too.
If during automatic light activation,
main beam headlights have been switched on (manually), they will go
off at automatic light switching off.
IMPORTANT The light sensor is not able to detect the fog presence,
lights shall therefore be switched on manually.

WINDOW WASHING
WINDSCREEN WASHER/WIPER
This device can only work when the ignition key is at MAR.
The stalk can be moved to five different positions:
A windscreen wiper off
B flick wipe.
With the stalk in position B, turning the knurled ring F, four possible
intermittent speeds are obtained:
,= very slow intermittent
--= slow intermittent
---= intermittent medium
----= fast intermittent
C continuous slow;
D continuous fast;
E fast temporary (unstable position).
Operation in position E is limited to the time the lever is held in this
position. When the lever is released, it returns to position A
automatically stopping the wiper.
IMPORTANT Change blades as indicated in section
“Car Maintenance”.
Never use the window wiper to remove ice or snow from the windscreen. In these conditions, the
wiper is submitted to excessive effort that results in motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation inhibition for few seconds as a consequence. If operation is not restored contact Lancia
Dealership.

“Smart washing” function
Pulling the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable position)
operates the windscreen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for over half a second, with just one
movement it is possible to operate the washer jet and the wiper at the
same time.
Releasing the stalk will stop the washer jet immediately whereas the
wiper stops working four strokes later.
A further “cleaning stroke” after five seconds, completes the wiping
operation.

RAIN SENSOR (where provided)
The rain sensor A is located behind the driving mirror in contact with
the windscreen and has the purpose of automatically adjust, during
the intermittent operation, the frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes as to the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the sensor area.
Activation
Move the right-hand stalk downwards by one position.
The activation of the rain sensor is signalled by a control acquisition
“stroke”.

Turning the knurled ring F it is possible to increase the sensitivity of
the rain sensor.
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain sensor is signalled by a
control and acquisition “stroke”.
Operating the windscreen washer with the rain sensor activated will
start the smart washing function (without the additional cleaning
stroke after five seconds), at the end of which the rain sensor resumes
its normal automatic function.
Deactivation
Remove the stalk from position B or turn the ignition key to STOP.
At the following starting operation (key at MAR), the sensor will not
be reactivated even if the stalk is still at B. To activate the rain sensor,
move the stalk to A or C and then again to B or turn the sensitivity
adjustment knurled ring.
Rain sensor activation is indicated by a wiper “stroke”.
The rain sensor is able to recognize and automatically adjust itself in
the presence of the following particular conditions:
❒impurities on the controlled surface (salt, dirt, etc.);
❒difference between day and night.
Water streaks could cause non-required wiping.WARNING

REAR WINDOW WASH/WIPE FUNCTION
This device can only work when the ignition key is at MAR.
Turning the knurled ring A from åto
'the rear window wiper is
operated as follows:
❒intermittent operation if the windscreen wiper is off
❒synchronised with the windscreen wiper (but with half stroke
frequency).
With windscreen wiper on and reverse gear engaged, rear window
wiping will be continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard (unstable position) will
activate the rear window washer.
Pushing the stalk for over half a second will activated also the rear
window wiper.
Releasing the stalk will activate the smart washing function as
described for the windscreen wiper.

CRUISE CONTROL (where provided)
It is a device able to support the driver, with electronic control, which
allows driving at speed over 30 km/h on long and straight dry roads
(e.g.: motorways), at a desired speed, without pressing the accelerator
pedal. Therefore it is not suggested to use this device on extra-urban
roads with traffic. Do not use it in town.
DEVICE ENGAGEMENT
Turn knurled ring A to ON.
The device may only be engaged in the 4th or 5th gear. Travelling
downhill with the device engaged, the car speed may increase more
than the memorised one.
When the device is activated, the warning light
Üon the instrument
cluster turns on together with the message (where provided) on the
multifunction display.

TO MEMORISE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn the knurled ring A to ON and press the
accelerator pedal to the required speed;
❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at least three
seconds, then release it. The car speed is
memorised and it is therefore possible to release
the accelerator pedal.
In the case of need (when overtaking for instance)
acceleration is possible simply pressing the
accelerator pedal: releasing the accelerator pedal,
the car will return to the speed memorised
previously.
TO RESET THE MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged for example
pressing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised
speed can be reset as follows:
❒accelerate gradually until reaching a speed
approaching the one memorised;
❒engage the gear selected at the time of speed
memorising (4th or 5th gear);
❒press the RES button B.TO INCREASE THE MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in two ways:
❒pressing the accelerator and then memorising the
new speed reached;
or
❒moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will correspond to a
slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while
keeping the stalk upwards continuously will
correspond to a continuous speed increase.
