IMPORTANTDo not remove the
battery from the CID device until
when its replacement is possible.
Where system is unable to identify
the CID device (e.g. the CID battery
is flat) the car can be accessed by
using the emergency key existing
inside the CID itself.
When switched on, the alarm sys-
tem will be actuated when the door
is opened and the siren will start
sounding but will be switched off by
turning the starting knob to MAR.
Car start-up will moreover be possi-
ble by positioning the CID into the
special seat A(fig. 21), located in
front of the gear lever. Under these
conditions, such compartment is the
only position capable of acknowledg-
ing the presence of a CID device
inside the passenger compartment.

It is advised to always
carry about with you the
CID device, avoiding to
leave it unguarded inside the
passenger compartment, because
in this case any children remain-
ing unguarded inside the car or
unauthorised people could start
the engine.
Do not expose the CID
device to electromagnetic
fields or high-intensity
radio frequency sources, to avoid
operation anomalies. Heavy
shocks or exposure to direct sun-
light could damage the electronic
components of the device.
IMPORTANTDo 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). “GARAGE” POSITION
(EMERGENCY ACTUATION)
During emergency or servicing
operations, the CID device shall be
housed in the dashboard central
oddment compartment A(fig. 21) in
front of the gear lever.
The electronic component in the
CID device is of the “passive” type
and does not require dedicated
power supply; it can therefore oper-
ate in “garage” position even if the
CID device battery is run down.

47
For an emergency engine start up
proceed as follows:
– Lay the CID device into the emer-
gency seat A(fig. 21)
– Push on the clutch pedal (manual
gearbox versions) or on the brake
pedal (automatic gearbox versions)
– To turn on the instrument panel,
turn knob A(fig. 22) to position
MAR.
To start engine, turn the knob A
(fig. 22) to positionAVV, and release
as soon as the engine is started.
When the car is running, the
engine gets going even if the CID
device has been removed from the
“garage” position. In any case, the
CID device will have to be put back
to the “garage” position for subse-
quent start-up.
IMPORTANTSet free from any
object compartment A(fig. 21),
before starting the emergency engine
start-up procedure.
IMPORTANTRemember to carry
about with you the CID device
before moving away from the car. KNOB FOR ACTUATING
INSTRUMENT PANEL
AND ENGINE START-UP
The car is fitted with a switch con-
trolled by knob A(fig. 22), enabling
to actuate STOP, MARand AVV
starter motor switch functions.
IMPORTANTKnob rotation is
enabled by the presence of the CID
device in the car and by the pressing
of the clutch pedal (or the brake pedal
for cars with automatic transmission).
STOP position
This position of the switch knob
corresponds to: engine off and steer-
ing column lock on. Certain electri-
cal devices (e.g. CONNECT) can be
operated.MAR position
This is the running position and
corresponds to: instrument panel on
and steering column lock off. All the
electrical devices can be operated.
AVV position
This is the position for engine
start-up: release the knob as soon as
the engine has started. The engine
can be started only when the CID
device is inside the car.
IMPORTANTSystem checks for
the presence of a CID device inside
the passenger compartment, when-
ever a door or the luggage compart-
ment are closed, while the instru-
ment panel is turned on or the
engine is running. If the CID device
is not identified, e.g. because the
CID owner leaves the car, the dis-
play on the instrument panel will
display the message: “ELECTRON-
IC KEY NO LONGER PRESENT IN
THE CAR – ENGINE CANNOT BE
RESTARTED”. The engine will
keep on running and instrument
panel will remain on, until the suc-

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.

49
– CID device inside the car
– clutch pedal depressed (brake
pedal on versions with automatic
transmission).
IMPORTANTIf the car battery is
run down, the steering column can-
not be unlocked and the car cannot
be started. In this case, an auxiliary
battery must be connected, in order
to unlock the steering column and
start the engine (see paragraph
“Jump starting”); then, contact a
Lancia Dealershipto have the bat-
tery recharged.DOOR UNLOCKING
TO ACCESS CAR
To perform door unlocking, push on
button A(fig. 23front doors -
fig. 24rear doors) in the inside part
of handles. The Keyless System iden-
tifies the CID device, deactivates the
electronic alarm system and operates
the door/s unlocking mechanism.
Leds on door panels will be lit to a
green colour to notice unlocking.
It is possible to set unlocking of dri-
ver’s door only or the contemporary
unlocking of all the doors, by the set-
tings on CONNECT (see the following
paragraph “System Settings”). If “dri-
ver’s door unlocking” is set, it will be
possible to access the passenger com-
partment only through this door; to
unlock the other doors push on but-
ton B(fig. 18) on CID device.

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.

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.

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL
CID DEVICES
The Keyless System receiver can
recognize up to 4 CID devices.
If you have requested additional
CID devices, remember that the pro-
gramming operation must be carried
out simultaneously for all the CID
devices.
Therefore, should a new CID
device be necessary for whatever
reason, go to your Lancia
Dealership, bringing with you all
the keys and CID devices in your
possession, the CODE card, your ID
card and the documents that certify
car possession.MINISTERIAL HOMOLOGATION
In the respect of the legislation in
force in each country in the matter
of radio-frequency devices, please
note that for markets where trans-
mitter marking is requested, the
homologation number is printed on
the CID device.
The code marking may also be
printed on the CID and/ or the
receiver for versions/markets where
this is required.Used batteries pollute
the environment. Dispose
of them in the special
containers as specified by current
legislation. Keep batteries away
from open flames and high tem-
peratures. Keep away from chil-
dren.

CID DEVICE
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the CID device battery is almost
flat, system performance worsens. In
this case, the battery must replaced
with a new one of the same type that
can be purchased at common stores.
