GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR121

IMPORTANT Traffic police may not allow the car on the
road if devices have been fitted which modify the features
of the car. This may also invalidate the warranty if faults
occur that are either directly or indirectly related to the
installation of these devices. Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A.
shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation
of accessories either not supplied or not recommended
by Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. and/or not installed in
compliance with the provided instructions.
RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND CELLULAR
PHONES
Radio sets (e.g.: e-tacs mobile phones, HAM radio systems
and the like) should not be used inside the car unless a
separate aerial is mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of such devices inside the passenger
compartment (without a separate aerial), may cause the
electrical systems serving the car to malfunction. This could
compromise safety in addition to constituting a potential
hazard for passengers.
In addition, the transmission and reception of these de-
vices may be affected by the shielding effect of the car
body.
With regards to the use of EC-approved mobile phones
(GSM, GPRS, UMTS), adhere strictly to the instructions
for use provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.AT THE FILLING STATION
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only, with an octane number (R.O.N.)
no lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter leads to
harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air pol-
lution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amounts or in an emergency, as this would damage the
catalytic converter beyond repair.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is provided with front air bags for the driver and
the passenger, driver’s knee air bag (where provided) and
front side bags (side bags - window bags).
The front airbags (driver’s, passenger’s, driver’s knee air
bags) have been designed to protect the occupants in the
event of head-on crashes of medium-high severity, by plac-
ing a cushion between the occupant and the steering wheel
or dashboard.
Front air bags are designed to protect car’s occupants in
head-on crashes and therefore non-activation in other
types of collisions (side collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs,
etc.) is not a system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag to inflate in the
event of a head-on crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing itself between
the front occupant’s body and the structures which could
cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
The front airbags (driver’s, passenger’s, driver’s knee air
bags) do not replace but rather complement the seat belts,
which you are always recommended to wear, as specified
by law in Europe and most non-European countries.
In the event of a collision, a person not wearing a seat belt
may be thrown forward and come into contact with the
bag before it has fully opened. The protection offered by
the bag is reduced in such a case.The front airbags may not be activated in the following sit-
uations:
in collisions against highly deformable objects not af-
fecting the front surface of the car (e.g. bumper colli-
sion against guard rail, etc.);
car penetration under other vehicles or protective bar-
riers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
in these instances they would not provide any additional
protection compared with the seat belts, so their deploy-
ment would be improper. Non deployment in such cases
does not constitute a fault.
Do not apply stickers or other objects to the
steering wheel, the dashboard in the passen-
ger-side airbag area, the roof side upholstery
or the seats. Do not place objects (e.g. cell phones)
on the passenger-side dashboard because these
could interfere with the correct opening of the airbag
and cause severe injury to occupants.

214CARE AND MAINTENANCE
If the vehicle must remain unused for a long
time at very low temperatures, remove the
battery and carry it to a warm place, to avoid
freezing.
When you must perform any operation on the
battery or near it, always protect your eyes
with special goggles.
Incorrect assembly of electric and electronic
devices may cause severe damage to your car.
Go to a Lancia Dealership if you want to in-
stall accessories (alarms, mobile phone, etc.): they
will suggest the most suitable devices and advise
you if a higher capacity battery needs to be in-
stalled.
Batteries contain substances that can be very
dangerous for the environment. It is advis-
able to have the battery changed by a Lancia
Dealership where it will be disposed of according
to the law.
