When travelling downhill with the device engaged, the car
speed may exceed the memorised one.
The engagement of the device is signalled by the Üwarn-
ing light lighting up in the instrument panel (together with
a message shown on the display) (see “Instrument panel
warning lights” in chapter 1).
MEMORISING VEHICLE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
turn selector wheel A-fig. 31 to ON and press the ac-
celerator until the vehicle reaches the desired speed;
turn selector wheel B to (+) for at least three seconds
and then release it: the car speed will be memorised
and the accelerator pedal may be released.
If required (e.g. for overtaking), press the accelerator ped-
al to accelerate: the car will return to the previously set
speed when the pedal is released.
RESTORING MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged, for example by press-
ing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised speed can
be reset as follows:
accelerate gradually until you reach a speed ap-
proaching the one memorised;
engage the gear selected at the time of speed memo-
rising (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
press button C-fig. 31.INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
by pressing the accelerator and then memorising the
new speed reached;
or
by temporarily turning selector wheel B-fig. 31 to (+).
Each movement of the selector wheel will correspond to
a slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while keeping
the selector wheel turned will correspond to a continuous
speed increase.
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
by disengaging the device and then memorising the
new speed;
or
by keeping selector wheel B-fig. 31 turned to (–) un-
til the new speed is reached; it will then be memorised
automatically.
Each movement of the selector wheel will correspond to
a slight reduction in speed (about 1 km/h), while keep-
ing the selector wheel turned will correspond to a contin-
uous reduction in speed.

HEADLIGHTS
BEAM DIRECTION
The correct orientation of the headlights is important for
the comfort and safety of not only the driver but all road
users. It is also a specific rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly aligned to ensure the best
visibility conditions for all drivers.
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have the headlights prop-
erly adjusted.
Check beam alignment every time the load or its distrib-
ution changes.
BEAM ADJUSTMENT fig. 67
The car is fitted with an electric headlight alignment sys-
tem. This system is operational with the ignition key to
MAR and the dipped beam headlights on.
The car will tilt backwards when it is loaded, raising the
light beam.
In this case, it is necessary to adjust the beams using but-
tons A and B.
The display provides a visual indication of the position
during adjustment.Correct position depending on load
Position 0 - one or two passengers in the front seats.
Position 1 - five passengers.
Position 2 - five passengers + load in the boot.
Position 3 - driver + maximum permitted load in the lug-
gage compartment.

HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
ABROAD
The factory adjustment of the dipped beam headlights de-
pends on the country where the car is purchased. When
you travel in countries with a different driving direction,
it is necessary to cover certain areas of the headlight ac-
cording to the provisions of the Highway Code of the coun-
try you are travelling in to avoid blinding the drivers trav-
elling in the opposite direction.
ADAPTIVE LIGHTS (AFS - Adaptive Xenon Light)
This is a system linked to the Xenon headlights, which
continuously and automatically adjusts the main light
beam and adapts it to the driving conditions when cor-
nering. The system directs the light beam to improve the
illumination of the road, taking into account the vehicle
speed, the cornering angle and the speed at which the
steering wheel is turned.Activating/deactivating the system fig. 68
The adaptive lights are activated automatically when the
vehicle is started. In this situation the LED (amber) on
button A will remain off.
Press button A to deactivate the adaptive lights (if acti-
vated); the LED on button A will light up. To reactivate
the adaptive lights: press button A once again (LED on
