FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is supplied with front airbags
for both the driver and passenger, and
window bags (head protection sys-
tem). On driver’s request, it can be
supplied with front side airbags.
The front airbags (for driver and pas-
senger) have been designed to protect
the passengers sitting on the front
seats in the event of head-on crashes
of medium-high severity, by placing
the bag between the person and the
steering wheel or dashboard.
Non-deployment of the airbags dur-
ing other types of collisions (side col-
lisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not necessarily indicate a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the
bag to inflate in the event of a frontal
crash. The bag inflates instanta-
neously placing itself between the
front passenger’s body and the struc-
tures which could cause injury. It de-
flates immediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of, but comple-
mentary to 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 the seat belt may bethrown forward and come into con-
tact with the bag before it has fully
opened. The protection offered by the
bag is reduced in such a case.
Front airbags may not be activated in
the following situations:
❒during collisions against highly de-
formable objects that do not affect
the car front surface (e.g. bumper
collision against guard rail, heaps
of gravel, etc.);
❒jamming of the car underneath
other vehicles or protective barri-
ers (e.g. underneath a truck or a
guard rail); in this case, the bags
would offer no additional protec-
tion with respect to the seat belt
and their deployment is unneces-
sary. In these cases non-deploy-
ment of the airbag does not neces-
sarily indicate a system malfunc-
tion.
The front airbags on the driver’s and
passenger’s sides are designed and cal-
ibrated to protect the front seat pas-
sengers who wear the safety belts. The
volume of front airbags at max. infla-
tion fills most of the space between
the steering wheel and the driver and
between the dashboard and the pas-
senger.FRONT AIRBAG ON DRIVER’S

Side bags are not a replacement of,
but complementary to the seat belts,
which you are always recommended
to wear, as specified by law in Europe
and in most non-European countries.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side
crash, the system provides best pro-
tection if the passenger sits on the seat
in a correct position, thus allowing
correct window bag deployment.
IMPORTANT The front airbags
and/or side bags are deployed also if
the car is subject to strong collisions
or accidents involving the underbody
area, such as violent shocks against
steps, kerbs or low obstacles, falling
of the car in big holes or sags in the
road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust
is released when the airbags are de-
ployed. The dust is not harmful and
does not indicate the beginning of a
fire. Furthermore, the surface of the
deployed bag and the interior of the
car may be covered with residual
dust. This dust may irritate the skin
and the eyes. Use mild soap and wa-
ter to wash the parts of your body ex-
posed to this dust.The pyrotechnic charge of the airbag
system lasts for 14 years; the spiral
contact 10 years. Go to a Lancia
Dealership to have the devices re-
placed when the expiration date ap-
proaches.
IMPORTANT Should an accident oc-
cur activating any of the safety de-
vices, take the car to a Lancia Deal-
ership to have the activated devices
replaced and the system checked.
Airbag checking, repair and replace-
ment must only be carried out c/o the
Lancia Dealership.
If you are having the car scrapped,
have the airbag system deactivated at
a Lancia Dealership first. If the car
changes ownership, the new owner
must be informed of how to use the
airbags and the above warnings: s/he
must also be given this “Owner’s
Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front
airbags and front side bags are de-
ployed differently according to the
type of collision. Non-deployment of
one of the devices does not necessar-
ily indicate a system malfunction.
Do not rest the head, arms
or elbows on the door, win-
dows and window bag area to avoid
possible injuries during inflation.
Never lean head, arms and elbows
out of the window.
WARNING
If the warning light ¬
does not turn on or stays
on during car travel when turning
the key to MAR, a failure may be
present in the restraint systems. If
this is the case, the airbags or pre-
tensioners may not be deployed af-
ter an impact or, in a minor num-
ber of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
Do not cover the front seat backrest
with upholstery or seat covers that
hinder deployment of the side bag.

CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to keep the running costs of
your car down and lower the amount
of toxic emissions released into the at-
mosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried
out in accordance with the “Service
schedule”.
Tyres
Check tyre pressure regularly at least
once every four weeks: excessively low
pressure will increase consumption
because rolling resistance will be
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded
boot. The weight of the car (especially
when driving in town) and its trim
greatly affect consumption and sta-
bility.Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof after use. These acces-
sories decrease aerodynamic penetra-
tion of the car and have a negative ef-
fect on consumption. It is better to use
a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the
amount of time needed. Rear heated
window, additional headlights, wind-
screen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, there-
fore increasing the requirement of
current increases fuel consumption
(up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system requires
higher fuel consumption (up to +20%
in average): use the air vents when the
external temperature allows to.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag
and consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine up with the
car standing: the engine warms up
very slowly in these conditions, in-
creasing consumption and emissions.
It is advisable to start off immediately
and slowly keeping the engine speed
down: the engine will warm up much
faster this way.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at
traffic lights or before stopping the
engine. The latter action, like dou-
bling the clutch, is unnecessary and
causes increase of consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic
and road conditions allow. Using a
low gear for faster acceleration will in-
crease consumption.
In the same way improper use of a
high gear increases consumption,
emissions an engine wear.

EXTENDED
CAR INACTIVITY
If the car is to be left inactive for
longer than a month, the following
precautions should be noted:
❒park the car in covered, dry and
if possible well-ventilated premises;
❒engage a gear;
❒check that the handbrake is not
engaged;
❒disconnect the negative battery
terminal and check battery charge.
Repeat this check once every three
months during storage. Recharge
if the optical indicator shows a
dark colour without the central
green area;❒clean ad protect the painted parts
using protection waxes;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal
parts using special compounds
readily available;
❒sprinkle talcum powder on the
rubber windscreen and rear win-
dow wiper blades and lift them off
the glass;
❒slightly open the windows;
❒cover the car with a fabric or per-
forated plastic sheet. Do not use
compact plastic sheets that pre-
vent moisture on the car surface
from evaporating;❒inflate the tyres at a pressure of
+0.5 bar with respect to the nor-
mally specified pressure and check
it regularly;
❒if you don’t disconnect the battery
from the electric system, check its
charge every month and recharge
it if the optical indicator shows a
dark colour without the central
green area;
❒do not drain the engine cooling
system.
