“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.

IMPORTANT NOTES ON TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (T.P.M.S.)
IMPORTANT Failure indications will not be stored
and therefore will not be displayed when turning
the engine off and on again. If failure persists, the
control unit will send warning indications to the
instrument panel only after a few seconds when the
car is moving.
IMPORTANT T.P.M.S. system cannot indicate
sudden tyre pressure drops (e.g.: tyre burst).
In this event, brake the car cautiously and avoid
sudden steering.
IMPORTANT Cross switching of rear tyres with
front tyres or replacing standard tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa involves T.P.M.S. system set-up
that shall be performed at Lancia Dealerships only.IMPORTANT The T.P.M.S. system requires specific
equipment. Apply to Lancia Dealerships for
compatible accessories (wheels, wheel caps, etc.).
Other accessories could impair regular system
operation.
Due to the particular valve characteristics, use only
Lancia-approved tyre repair sealing fluids. Other
products could impair regular system operation.
IMPORTANT Tyre pressure could change according
to outside temperature. For this reason the T.P.M.S.
system could temporarily indicate low tyre pressure.
In this event check pressure with cold tyres and
restore proper inflation values if required.
IMPORTANT If the car is fitted with T.P.M.S.
system, tyre and/or rim changing should be
performed adopting special precautions. To avoid
bad installation of sensors or damages, have these
operations performed by Lancia Dealership
qualified personnel only.
IMPORTANT If after repairing a punctured tyre
with the Fix&Go kit and restoring the initial
conditions the flat tyre warning light continues to
stay on, contact Lancia Dealership.

CELLULAR TELEPHONE PROVISION (where fitted)
The telephone provision is matched to the radio with CD or CD MP3 and consists of:
❒dual-purpose aerial (sound system + cellular phone 900/1800 MHz), on the car roof;
❒dual-purpose aerial connecting cable and wiring with 10-way connector.
The connector is located between the the steering column and the central console.
The hands-free kit must be purchased by the Customer since it must be compatible with the owned
cellular phone. You are suggested to have the microphone installed next to the front ceiling light.
WARNINGThe maximum power applicable on the aerial is 20W.
Contact Lancia Dealership for the installation and connection of the cellular
phone on the vehicle, to prevent any faults which might compromise the car
safety.
WARNING

“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
SYSTEM
The car is fitted with an electrically controlled power steering called
“Dualdrive”. It only works when the ignition key is at MAR and the
engine is running and it can be customised by the driver according to
the driving conditions.
ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION (CITY function)
To turn this function on/off, press the CITY button located in the
middle of the instrument panel.
On some versions the activation of this function is signalled by the
lighting up of the CITY warning light on the instrument panel, on
others by the lighting up of CITY on the reconfigurable multifunction
display.
With the CITY function, the steering wheel will be lighter and require
less effort for parking. This operating strategy is suitable for driving
in cities.

It is absolutely forbidden to carry out whatever after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and safety.
WARNING
WARNING
Be careful when mounting additional spoilers, alloy rims and non original wheel
caps: they may reduce the brake ventilation and efficiency during sharp and
repeated braking or sloping downhill. Also make sure that nothing (over-
carpeting, etc.) interferes with the pedal stroke.

FAILURE WARNINGS
Any electric power steering failure is indicated by
cluster warning light gcoming on (together, with
the message on the multifunction display - see the
“Warning lights” chapter).
In the event of electric power steering failure, the
car can be driven with mechanical steering to the
closest Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANT The steering may become slightly stiff
following parking manoeuvres including a great
deal of steering. This is normal and caused by the
system to prevent motor overheating. No servicing is
required. The electrical power steering system will
return to normal operation the next time the car is
used.

Always switch the engine off, remove the key from the starting device and actuate
the steering lock before carrying out any maintenance operation, especially when
the wheels are raised from the ground. In case this is not possible (e.g. when the
key must be in MAR position or the engine running), remove the electric power
steering main fuse before carrying out any maintenance operation.

FRONT AND SIDE AIR BAGS
The car is fitted with front air bags for the driver
and for the passenger, and window bags (head
protection system); upon request the car can be
fitted also with front side bags;
The front air bag (driver and passenger) has been
designed to protect the occupants in the event of
head-on crashes of medium-high severity, by
placing the cushion between the occupant and the
steering wheel or dashboard.
Front air bags are designed to protect car’s
occupants in front crashes and therefore non-
activation in other types of collisions (side
collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not a
system malfunction.
In case of crash, an electronic control unit, when
required, triggers the inflation of the cushion.
The cushion immediately inflates, placing itself as a
protection between the body of the front occupants
and the structure that could cause injuries.
Immediately after, the cushion deflates.
The front air bag (driver and passenger) is not a
replacement of but complementary to the use of
belts, which should always be worn, as specified by
law in Europe and most non European countries.In case of crash, a person not wearing the seat belt
moves forward and may come into contact with the
cushion while it is still inflating. Under this
circumstance the protection offered by the air bag is
reduced.
Front air bag may not be activated in the following
situations:
❒in collisions against highly deformable objects
not affecting the vehicle front surface
(e.g. bumper collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒in case of wedging under other vehicles or
protective barriers (for example under a truck or
guard rail), the air bag is not triggered as it
offers no additional protection compared with
the seat belts, consequently it would be pointless.
Therefore, failure to come into action in the
above circumstance does not mean that the
system is not working properly.
The driver’s and passenger’s front Air bags have
been designed and calibrated to improve the
protection of a person wearing seat belts.
At its maximum inflation, its volume fills most of
the space between the dashboard and the passenger.
