2007 Lancia Thesis remote control

43
The functions that can be modified
through the CONNECT system
menu are:
– boot lock release by actuating
central door opening (*);
– central door and tailgate locking
when the car speed exceeds 20
km/h, without actuation of the
deadlock device.
(*) When this function is discon-
nected to lock the boot lock when
the boot is closed, even if the doors
were closed, the remote control or
the key must be used, as it is nor-
mally the case with the doors; thus,
the boot can be opened with the
handle in the event that the key is
left inside the lock.MINISTERIAL HOMOLOGATION
In the respect of the legislation in
force in each country in the matter
of radio-frequency devices, please
note that the homologation number
is printed on the component for
markets where this is required.
IMPORTANTThe code marking
may also be printed on the transmit-
ter and/or the receiver for ver-
sions/markets where this is required.EASY ENTRY/EXIT
SYSTEM
Versions provided with electric
steering wheel adjustment may also
incorporate the Easy Entry/Exit sys-
tem, which allows the driver to get
into and out of the car with
improved ease.
In the cars provided with this sys-
tem, the steering wheel lifts and the
seat goes back before the driver gets
out of the car.
The function is actuated when the
door is opened but only if the igni-
tion key is at STOPor has been
removed.
When the driver opens the door to
get into the car, both the seat and
the steering wheel have already gone
back. The seat and the steering
wheel will return to their normal dri-
ving position after the driver has sat,
closed the door and turned the key
to MAR.

RECOGNITION
SYSTEM (KEYLESS
SYSTEM)
The Keyless System is a recognition
system controlled by device A
(fig. 17), called CID (Customer
Identification Device), which per-
forms the same functions as the key
provided with the remote control
supplied with the car. It does not
require any manual action since it
identifies the person that holds the
device as the owner of the car.
Therefore, it is enough for the dri-
ver to bring the CID device with
himself so that the car can recognize
him, allowing him to get into the carand start the engine without having
to use the key.
In any case, the CID device is
equipped with three buttons per-
forming the same functions as the
ordinary radio-frequency remote
control that enable the driver to
remotely operate on the car.
Moreover, it includes the key for the
mechanical emergency actuation of
the boot and door locks (in case the
CID device battery or the car battery
are run down).
The buttons perform the following
functions (fig. 18):
– button Bfor remote actuation of
central door opening and the simul-
taneous switching off of the elec-
tronic alarm– button Cfor remote actuation of
central door locking, boot locking
and the simultaneous switching on
of the electronic alarm
– button Dfor remote tailgate
opening
– led E(where required) to indi-
cate code sending to the electronic
alarm system receiver.
To remove emergency keyF
(fig. 19), take off cover G(fig. 20)
by levering at point H.

Before leaving the car in
a car-wash tunnel, disen-
gage the parking brake by
following the instructions
described in the relevant para-
graph, and leave the CID device
inside the passenger compart-
ment, to avoid automatic steering
column lock.IMPORTANTUser is not authorised
to move the car if the start-up knob is
not turned to the position MAR.
Should it be necessary to tow the car,
it is advised to turn the knob to the
MARposition before moving the car.
Steering column unlocking
The steering column is automati-
cally switched off, and the instru-
ment panel and electrical services
switched on, when the system
detects the simultaneous presence of
the following conditions:
cessive rotation of knob A(fig. 22)
to the STOPposition, and it will not
be possible to restart the car until a
valid CID device is identified inside
the passenger compartment.
IMPORTANTMake sure the CID
device is not positioned in places dif-
ficult to be accessed by the identifi-
cation system, such as the instru-
ment panel, the car floor or the shelf
below the rear window. Some elec-
tronic devices (e. g. mobile phones,
PDA, etc.) can moreover influence
the CID device identification. In the
case where, after a start-up opera-
tion, the message “ELECTRONIC
KEY NOT IDENTIFIED” should be
displayed, on the instrument panel,
make sure make sure whether the
CID is present into the passenger
compartment and it is located in
places tat can be reached by identi-
fication system.
IMPORTANTIf the CID device is
inside the luggage compartment, it is
possible that the engine could not be
started.Engine stop
To switch the engine off, turn the
knob from MARto STOP: the
engine will stop and the instrument
panel will display the message
“STEERING LOCKED WHEN
DOORS CLOSED”.
Steering column locking
The steering column lock is auto-
matically switched on by actuating
door closing by means of the remote
control, if the system has detected
the simultaneous presence of the fol-
lowing conditions:
– engine off (knob rotation to
STOPwith the car at a standstill)
– clutch pedal released (brake pedal
released on versions with automatic
transmission).
IMPORTANTThe steering column
lock is not switched on when the
door locks are actuated by means of
the emergency key in the CID
device, or automatically when the
CID device is taken away from the
car.

51
The alarm system, the
steering lock and the
deadlock device are not
actuated by the automatic lock-
ing function.
IMPORTANTPurpose of Autoclose
function is to lock doors, luggage
compartment and fuel filler flap when
owner possessing the CID device,
moves away from the car. In this case
(Autoclose function on), push on but-
ton B(fig. 18) on CID to unlock fuel
filler flap in order to refuel. – If there is a fault in the identifi-
cation system (Keyless System).
– If the CID device battery is flat.
– If the last engine start-up was
performed with the CID device in
the emergency position.
IMPORTANT
– If, after locking the locks, a door
is opened from inside the car, all the
locks will be unlocked.
– If central door opening has been
activated by pressing the CID but-
ton, the Autoclose function (auto-
matic locking) will not be activated.
To activate central locking, press the
relevant button on the CID device.
– When the Autoclose function on,
before leaving the car, make sure
you always have with yourself the
CID device.The Autoclose function can be
influenced by the presence of elec-
tromagnetic noises; in these cases
lock the doors with the remote con-
trol or use the door locks.
CENTRAL LOCKING/OPENING
OF WINDOWS AND SUNROOF
When central door locking is
switched on/off, also the central
locking/opening of the windows and
the sunroof can be controlled, pro-
vided that all the doors are properly
closed.
To actuate central locking of the
windows and the sunroof, keep the
remote control button A(fig. 25)
depressed for more than 2 seconds
after closing the doors: both the win-
dow regulators and the sunroof will
be actuated until they are fully
closed or until the button is released.

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.

55
To unlock, turn the key clockwise
1; to lock, turn the key counter-
clockwise 2.
When the doors are released by
means of the remote control, the
alarm system and the deadlock
device (described below) are also
switched off.
IMPORTANTThe electronic
alarm will not be switched off if the
door is unlocked by the key in the
lock.
Inside each handle there is a button
A(fig. 31 front doors -fig. 32 rear
doors) which actuates, when the
handle is caught, the servo control
used to open the door.The car is fitted with power locks
that control the mechanical parts at
door opening.

In an emergency (flat battery or
electric system failure), doors can be
opened, with the locks released, by
pressing button B(fig. 31 front
doors -fig. 32 rear doors).
All door panels incorporate a
red/green led A(fig. 33 front doors -
fig. 34 rear doors) , indicating the
locking/unlocking condition. The
leds come on with red light for about
3 seconds after door locking and
with green light after unlocking.
IMPORTANTDoor leds stay on
for about 3 seconds only; therefore,
leds are off under normal conditions.

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.

OPENING/CLOSING FROM
THE INSIDE
To open the door even when the
lock is locked, pull handle A(fig. 35
front doors -fig. 36 rear doors) set in
the upper part of the panel.
Next to each door handle are two
buttons that actuate lock
locking/unlocking:
– B button for unlocking;
– Cbutton for locking.
The red/green leds A(fig. 33 front
doors –fig. 34 rear doors) indicate
the locking/unlocking condition.
The leds come on with red light for
about 3 seconds after door locking
and with green light after unlocking.
By pulling the internal handle of
the driver’s door, all the doors or
only the driver’s door will be simul-
taneously unlocked, depending on
the setting selected on the CON-
NECT. By pulling the internal han-
dle of any other door, all the doors
are simultaneously unlocked.
fig. 36
L0A0052b
With the dead lock
device on, pressing the
external handle button of
one of the doors while unlocking
the doors by the remote control
could cause the disconnection of
the internal handle of the
involved door thus making
impossible to open that door
from the inside. To restore regu-
lar operation, just press the
remote control central door
unlocking button or button B (fig.
36) on the door panel.A led is located near each door
handle to make it easy to find the
handle in the dark. The leds light up
for about 2 minutes after turning the
ignition key to STOPor until a door
is opened.
Door open indication
The driver is informed that one or
several doors are not closed correct-
ly by the lighting of the correspond-
ing symbols on the instrument dis-
play, together with the messages
“DOOR OPEN” or “DOORS
OPEN”.
