AUTOCLOSE FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC LOCKING
OF DOORS, BOOT,
AND FUEL FILLER FLAP)
The Keyless System automatically
locks the boot and door locks when
the owner goes away with the CID
device at least 4 metres far from the
car. Boot and door locking is con-
firmed by the flashing of direction
indicators.
This function can be switched off
by acting on the CONNECT settings.
The Autoclose function is not actu-
ated in the following cases:
– If, when the driver moves away
from the car, one or several doors are
not closed correctly, automatic lock-
ing will not be actuated and the car
doors and boot will remain open: the
owner is warned of this by the failed
blinking of direction indicators.
– If at the time of moving away,
other CID devices are identified as
existing in the car passenger com-
partment or in the luggage compart-
ment, or if the knob is not set to the
STOPposition (instrument panel
turned on or engine started). LOCKING THE DOOR AND
LEAVING THE CAR (with the
identification system disabled)
To lock doors when system func-
tions are disabled, proceed as fol-
lows:
– Close all the doors and the lug-
gage compartment bonnet
– Push on button C(fig. 18) on
CID device to engage central locking
of doors, of luggage compartment
and of electronic alarm.
Leds on door panels will lit for
approx. 3 seconds in red colour and
then they will start flashing with
deterring function.
If one or more doors are not cor-
rectly closed, leds will start flashing
for 3 seconds instead of being lit
with a fixed light. After flashing for
3 seconds, leds will anyhow be
turned out, except for that on the
driver’s door, which will start flash-
ing with a deterring function. TAILGATE OPENING
If the boot shall be opened from
outside, with the doors locked, it is
enough to get near the boot with the
CID device and press the boot but-
ton: the boot lock will release and
the boot will be opened while the
doors remain locked. If the alarm
system is on, the boot protection,
volumetric protection and anti-lift-
ing protection will be temporarily
excluded.
When the boot is reclosed, it will
have to be locked by pressing the
door locking button on the CID
device, which will resume the alarm
protection, too.
IMPORTANTBefore closing the
luggage compartment bonnet, make
sure you always have with yourself
the CID device.

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.

56
Deadlock device
The deadlock device enables to dis-
connect mechanically the internal
door handles; in this case, doors can-
not be opened from the inside by
acting on the handles after breaking
the glass (improving protection
against theft).
The device can be switched on by
pressing the remote control button B
(fig. 29) again within 1 second after
closing the doors: active function
will be indicated by a beep and 2
further blinks of the direction indi-
cators.
The device activates only if all the
doors are properly closed.
When the deadlock device is
switched on, the door panel leds will
flash twice with red light.
After activating the dead
lock device it will be
impossible to get out of
the passenger compartment: for
this reason this device must be
activated only after making sure
that the passenger compartment
is empty.The front door leds are also used as
deterrent leds for the alarm system;
as a consequence, they will flash
when the alarm system is on or the
doors are locked.
The CONNECT enables to set the
central locking of all the doors or
only the driver’s door.
In the former case, all the car doors
are unlocked simultaneously and
access is possible through any door.
In the second case, access is possible
only through the driver’s door,
whereas the other doors are locked,
thus preventing un-authorized per-
sons from getting into the car.In this case, the driver’s door led
comes on with green light, whereas
the leds on the other doors will
remain off.
When only the driver’s door is
unlocked, after opening the driver’s
door, also the other doors can be
unlocked by pressing the central
unlocking button B(fig. 35) so as to
enable passengers getting into the
car.
IMPORTANTButtons Band C
(fig. 35) are disabled when the doors
are locked from the outside.
If, when the doors are closed from
the outside, one or more doors
and/or the boot are not closed cor-
rectly, the direction indicators will
flash rapidly for a few seconds.

Always use the lock when
transporting children. This
will prevent them opening
a door by themselves when travel-
ling.
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKING
WHEN SPEED EXCEEDS
20 KM/H
The CONNECT enables to set
automatic locking of doors, boot and
fuel cap when the car speed exceeds
20 km/h.
To actuate these settings, refer to
the CONNECT supplement provid-
ed with the car.

AUTOCLOSE FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC LOCKING
WITH KEYLESS SYSTEM
RECOGNITION SYSTEM)
On versions equipped with Keyless
System, the “Autoclose” function
can be actuated/deactivated through
the CONNECT settings. This func-
tion makes it possible to automati-
cally lock the boot and doors when
the CID device is taken away from
the car.
When leaving the car, if one or
more doors are not closed correctly,
the car will remain open and a fur-
ther beep will sound to indicate that
the locks have not been locked.
The “Autoclose” functions actuates
neither the alarm system nor the
door deadlock device (refer to the
contents of the relevant paragraph).
In any case, these functions can be
actuated by means of the remote
control.LOCK RELEASE IN CASE OF
ACCIDENT
In case of collision with actuation
of the inertia switch, the door locks
are automatically released to allows
rescuers to get access to the passen-
ger compartment.In any case, door open-
ing from the outside
depends on the door con-
ditions after the collision:
deformed doors cannot very often
be opened even if the lock is
released. In such a case, try to
open the other doors.
INITIALISING THE DOOR
LOCKING CONTROL UNIT
Whenever the battery is electrically
connected again or it is reloaded
after being completely flat or after
replacing one of the protection fuses,
to restore the correct operation of
the door locking, of air conditioning
and of ESP system, it is necessary to
perform the initialisation operations
contained in the paragraph “If bat-
tery is to be disconnected” in the
chapter “In an emergency”. The external mechanical
connections are active
only when the doors are
unlocked.
In the event that the driver has
actuated central locking from the
inside and, after a collision, the
inertia switch has not actuated
the automatic door unlocking
function due to the loss of or
damage to the battery, access to
the passenger compartment will
not be possible from the outside.

Any diagnostic, repair or replace-
ment operations concerning the
airbag system must exclusively be
carried out at a Lancia Dealership.
If you are having the car scrapped,
have the airbag system deactivated
at a Lancia Dealershipfirst.
If the car changes hands, the new
owner must be made aware of the
indications given above and be given
this Owner Handbook.
IMPORTANTPretensioners, front
airbags and side bags are activated
by the electronic control unit
according to the type of impact.
Consequently, missed activation of
one or more system components
does not indicate a fault in the sys-
tem.MANUALLY DEACTIVATING
THE REAR SIDE BAGS
(where provided)
Side bags, protecting the chest of
the rear passengers, can be deacti-
vated as follows.
Use the ignition key to operate the

2)Passenger’s front airbag deacti-
vated (position OFF
À): instrument
panel warning light
Àon. A child
may be carried on the front seat,
protected with a specific restraint
system.
IMPORTANTThe car is delivered
with rear side bags deactivated
(position OFF
À) and instrument
panel warning light
Àon.
Operate the switch only
when the engine is
stopped and the ignition
key is removed.
SEVERE DANGER:
