The research results in relation to the
best protection for children is illus-
trated in European standard ECE-
R44 which divides the restraint sys-
tems into five groups in addition to
making their use compulsory:
Group 0 - up to 10 kg in weight
Group 0+ - up to 13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg in weight
As it may be noted, the groups over-
lap partly and, in fact, in commerce it
is possible to find devices that cover
more than one weight group.
All restraint devices must bear the
type-approval data along with the
control mark on a label that must be
firmly secured to the child seat and
must never be removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point
of view of restraint systems, children
are considered as adults and must
wear the seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Lancia includes child
seats for each weight group. These de-
vices are recommended having been
specifically designed for Lancia cars.
SEVERE DANGER: do not
arrange child seats on the
front seat facing backwards if the
passenger’s front airbag is enabled.
Deployment of the airbag in the
event of an accident could cause fa-
tal injuries to the baby. It is advis-
able to carry children on the back
seat, which is the most protected
position in the event of an accident.
Under no circumstances should
child seats be fitted on the front
seat if the car is equipped with an
airbag on the passenger side, be-
cause if the airbag is deployed, it
may cause fatal injuries to the
baby regardless of the severity of
the crash causing the deployment.
WARNING
On cars supplied with a
deactivation system for
the front passenger
airbag, children can sit on
the front seat, when re-
quired. In this case, how-
ever, make sure that the airbag is
actually deactivated by checking
the amber warning light on the
panel (see the paragraph “front
airbag on passenger side” in the
section on both front and side
airbags). Move the passenger’s
seat as far back as possible to
avoid contact between the child
seat and the dashboard.

MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
FRONT AIRBAG AND SIDE BAG
ON PASSENGER’S SIDE
(where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried
on the front seat, the passenger’s front
airbag and the Side Bag (where pro-
vided) must be deactivated.
The warning light “on the instru-
ment panel stays on steadily until the
passenger’s front airbag and the Side
Bag (where provided) are re-acti-
vated.SIDE BAGS
(window bag)
(where provided)
SIDE BAG (where provided)
fig. 19
It consists of an instant-inflating bag
housed in the front seat backrest. It
protects the chest of the passengers in
the event of a side crash of medium-
high severity.
To manually deactivate
the passenger’s front
airbag and the Side Bag (where
provided), refer to paragraph
“Multifunctional reconfigurable
display” in section “Dashboard
and controls”.
WARNING
Do not cover the front seat
backrest with upholstery
or seat covers that hinder deploy-
ment of the side bag.

WINDOW BAG
(where provided) fig. 20
It consists of two “drop-down” bags
housed behind the side upholstery of
the roof and covered with finishing el-
ements that protect the head of front

side crash thanks to a wide bag de-
ployment area. Lineaccessori Lancia includes seat
covers enabling side bag deployment.

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.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light ¬does not turn on or stays on during
car travel (together with the mes-
sage on the multifunctional dis-
play, where provided), a failure
may have occurred in the restraint
systems. In this case the airbags or
pretensioners may not be deployed
after an impact or, in a minor
number of cases, they may be de-
ployed accidentally. Contact Lan-
cia Dealership immediately to
have the system checked immedi-
ately.
The failure of the warning
light
¬is indicated by the
warning light flashing longer than
the expected 4 seconds“, thus sig-
nalling that the front passenger
airbag is deactivated. In addition,
the airbag system automatically
disables the airbag on the passen-
ger’s side (both front and side
airbags, where provided). In this
case, the warning light
¬does
not necessarily indicate a failure
in the restraining systems. Contact
Lancia Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
WARNING
WARNING
HOT ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after
a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on, proceed
as follows:
❒during normal travel: stop the
car, stop the engine and check that
the water level in the vessel is not
under the MINline. If this is the
case, wait for a few minutes for the
engine to cool down. Then, slowly
and carefully open the cap, top-up
with coolant and check that the
level is between the MINandMAX
reference lines on the vessel. Also
check for leakages. Should the
warning light turn on again at the
next start-up, contact Lancia Deal-
ership.
u
❒If the vehicle is used under severe
conditions(e.g. towing of trailers
uphill or fully loaded vehicle): slow
down and stop the car if the warn-
ing light stays on. Stop for 2 or 3
minutes with the engine running
and slightly accelerated to favour
better coolant circulation. Then stop
the engine. Check correct fluid level
as described above.
IMPORTANT Under severe use of the
car, keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before
switching it off.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
LOW BATTERY
CHARGE (red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go out as
soon as the engine is started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief
delay in going out is allowed). If the
warning light stays on, immediately
contact Lancia Dealership.
