REFUELLING
Petrol engines:only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95.
Multijet engines:only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.
The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the
warranty due to the damage caused.
ENGINE STARTING
petrol engines:make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully
depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as
soon as the engine has started.
Multijet engines:turn the ignition key to MARand wait for the instrument panel warning light Y
andmto go out, then turn the ignition key to AV Vand release it as soon as the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
A system for continuously monitoring emission system components to ensure greater environmental
protection is fitted in your car.
K

HILL HOLDER SYSTEM (where provided)
It is an integral part of the ESP system and
facilitates starting on an uphill slope.
It is automatically activated in the following
conditions:
Uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with gradient
above 2%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals
pressed and gearbox in neutral position or gear
engaged (reverse excluded).
Downhill: stationary on a road with gradient above
2%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals
pressed and reverse engaged.
During pickup the ESP system control unit
maintains the wheel braking pressure until the
engine torque required for start up is reached, or
anyway for a maximum of 2 seconds, so that the
right foot can be moved easily from the brake pedal
to the accelerator pedal.After 2 seconds and without starting the car, the
system automatically deactivates gradually releasing
the braking pressure. During this phase it is possible
to hear the typical brake mechanical disengaging
noise which indicates the car is about to move off.
Failure warnings
In the event of failure, the instrument cluster
warning light
*will come on together with the
message on the multifunction display.
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a
parking brake therefore, never leave the car without
engaging the parking brake, the first gear and
turning the engine off.

WARNING
During the use of the spare wheel, the ESP system carries on working.
However, you must remind that the spare wheel presents dimensions smaller
than the standard tyre and therefore the grip is reduced as to the other car
tyres.
WARNING
For correct operation of the ESP system, the tyres must absolutely be of the same
brand and type on all wheels, in perfect conditions and, above all, of the type,
brand and size specified.

“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
See the “Warning lights and messages” chapter.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The system is preset for deactivating automatically
when the trailer electric cable plug is fitted into the
car tow hook socket.
Sensors are reactivated when removing the trailer
cable plug.GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care to obstacles
set above or under the sensors.
❒Objects set close to car rear part, under certain
circumstances are not detected and could
therefore cause damages to the car.
❒Indications sent by the sensor can be altered by
dirt, snow or ice deposited on the sensors or by
ultrasound systems (e.g.: truck pneumatic
brakes or pneumatic hammers) set nearby the
car.

For proper operation, the parking sensors set on the bumpers shall be clean from mud, dirt, snow
or ice. When cleaning the sensors, take the utmost care to prevent their damaging; do not use
therefore dry or rough clothes. Sensors shall be washed with clean water and car detergent, if
required. In washing stations, clean sensors quickly keeping the vapour jet/high pressure washing
nozzles at 10 cm at least from the sensors.
WARNING
Parking manoeuvres however are always under the driver’s responsibility that
shall always check the absence of people, animals or objects in the manoeuvre
space. This system is just a help for the driver but he shall never reduce
important during dangerous manoeuvres even if performed at low speed.

PARKING
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❒engage a gear (on a slope, engage first gear if the car is faced
uphill or reverse if it is faced downhill) and leave the wheels
steered.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone if the car is parked on a
steep slope. Avoid leaving the car parked with a wheel on the
sidewalk or steered against the kerb. Do not leave the ignition key at
MAR to prevent draining the battery. Always remove the key when
you leave the car.

HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located between the two front seats.
Pull the handbrake lever upwards until the car cannot be moved.
Four or five clicks are generally enough when the car is on level ground while nine or ten may be required if
the car is on a steep slope or laden.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, contact Lancia Dealership to have the handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled up and the ignition key is at MAR the panel warning light xwill come on.
To release the handbrake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and press release button A;
❒keep button (A) pressed in and lower the lever. Warning light xwill go out.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation to prevent the car from moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT If the handbrake lever tends to approach the end of stroke (slot on central console), contact
Lancia Dealership to have the handbrake adjusted.
WARNINGNever leave children unattended in the car. Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the car and take it out with you.

PARKING THE CAR
To park the car safely it is absolutely necessary to
press the brake pedal and to engage first gear or
reverse R and also the hand brake if the car is on a
slope; it is also absolutely necessary to wait for the
multifunction display showing the gear engaged to
go off before releasing the brake pedal.
IMPORTANT NEVER leave the car with gearbox in
neutral N.
IMPORTANT NOTES
❒With the car stopped and a gear engaged always
keep the brake pedal pressed until deciding to
move off, then release the brake pedal and
accelerate gradually;
❒during prolonged halts with the engine running it
is advisable to keep the gearbox in neutral N;
❒when the car is parked facing uphill, to safeguard
clutch efficiency do not use the accelerator to
keep the car still since clutch overheating could
damage it. Use the brake pedal and press the
accelerator pedal only when deciding to move off;❒use second gear only when more control is needed
for moving off manoeuvres with poor grip;
❒if, in reverse gear R, first gear is to be engaged or
vice versa, shift gear only when the car is stopped
completely and with the brake pedal pressed;
❒though highly inadvisable, if when travelling
downhill for some unexpected reason the car is
set to neutral N, when the engagement of a gear
is requested, the system automatically engages
the best gear in relation to the speed of the car to
allow the correct transmission of torque to the
wheels;
❒when travelling downhill with a gear engaged and
the accelerator released (if the car is moving),
beyond a pre-established speed, the system
engages the clutch automatically to give the car
adequate engine braking.
