IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electrical
devices (e.g. sound system, power
windows, etc.) work regularly.
❒MAR: driving position. All electri-
cal devices work regularly.
❒AV V: engine starting (unstable po-
sition).
The ignition switch is fitted with an
electronic safety system that turns the
ignition key back to position STOPif
the engine will not start, before re-
peating the starting operation.
Under no circumstances
should aftermarket works
be carried out, because they may
cause tampering with the driving
system or steering column (e.g. in-
stallation of anti-theft device),
which may lead to reduced system
performances and loss of the war-
ranty as well as safety-specific
problems and non-compliance
with the car type-approval.
WARNING
fig. 21L0D0021m
If the ignition system is
tampered with (e.g. after
an attempted theft), address a
Lancia Dealership to have the sys-
tem checked before starting off.
WARNING
Always remove the key
from the car when leaving
it in order to prevent accidental en-
gagement of the controls. Remem-
ber to engage the handbrake. En-
gage first gear if the car is parked
uphill or reverse if the car is
parked downhill. Never leave chil-
dren unattended in the car.
WARNING
STEERING COLUMN LOCK
Engagement
When the key is in position STOP, re-
move the key and turn the steering
wheel until it is locked.
Disengagement
Rock the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR.
Never extract the key while
the car is moving. The
steering wheel would be locked as
soon as the steering wheel is turned.
This also applies to cases in which
the car is towed.

IMPORTANT Air recirculation ON
enables faster achievement of the de-
sired conditions (for passenger com-
partment heating or cooling). It is
however inadvisable to use it on
rainy/cold days as it would consider-
ably increase the possibility of the
windows misting inside, especially if
the climate control compressor is off.
Recirculation is forced to off (i.e. air
is introduced from the outside) when
the outside temperature is inferior to
5-7°C to prevent misting up.Climate control

Press the button when the LED is off
to automatically restore system con-
trol and use of the compressor. Suc-
cessful completion of this operation is
highlighted by the button LED
switching on.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is switched
to off to prevent windows from mist-
ing up. Although the system is capa-
ble of maintaining the required tem-
perature, the word FULLwill disap-
pear from the display. If on the other
hand the system cannot maintain the
required temperature, the digits will
blink and the word AUTOwill disap-
pear.
IMPORTANT With the compressor
off, it is not possible to introduced air
cooler than ambient temperature into
the passenger compartment. Further-
more, in certain conditions, the win-
dows could mist up rapidly because
the air is not dehumidified.
It is advisable not to use
the air recirculation func-
tion when the outside temperature
is low to prevent the windows from
rapidly misting up.

(unstable position). When released,
the stalk will return to its home posi-
tion.AUTOMATIC LIGHT SENSORS
(dusk sensor) (where provided)
This sensor detects any changes in the
external brightness according to the
sensitivity of the set light level: the
higher the sensitivity, the lower the
amount of external light needed to
switch the lights on. The sensitivity of
the dusk sensor is adjusted by means
of the “Setup menu” on the “Multi-
functional Display”.

preset period of time.
Activation
With the ignition key on STOPor re-
moved, pull the stalk towards the
steering wheel within 2 minutes from
when the engine is turned off.
At each single movement of the stalk,
the time in which the lights stay on is
extended by 30 seconds up to maxi-
mum 210 seconds. After this time, the
lights go off automatically.

The activation of the rain sensor is
signalled by a control acquisition
“stroke”.
Turn the knurled ring F-fig. 73to in-
crease the rain sensor sensitivity.
The increase of the sensitivity of the
rain sensor is signalled by a control
and acquisition “stroke”.
By operating the windscreen washer
with the rain sensor enabled, a smart
washing cycle is carried out, without
the additional stroke after 5 seconds;
once completed, the sensor resumes its
regular automatic operation. “Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel (unstable position) to operate
the windscreen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more
than half a second, with just one
movement it is possible to operate the
washer jet and the wiper at the same
time.
When releasing the stalk, the jet stops
immediately, while the wiper carries
out another four strokes.
A further stroke after 6 seconds com-
pletes the wiping operation. Do not use the windscreen
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice from the wind-
screen. In such conditions,
the windscreen wiper may be sub-
jected to excessive stress and the
motor protection which prevents op-
eration for a few seconds may trip.
If the issue persists, contact the Lan-
cia Dealership.

CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed

(where provided)
It is a device able to support the dri-
ver, with electronic control, which al-
lows driving at speed over 30 km/h
on long and straight dry roads (e.g.:
motorways), at a desired speed, with-
out pressing the accelerator pedal.
Therefore it is not suggested to use
this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use it in town.TO MEMORISE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn knurling ring A-fig. 75toON
and press the accelerator pedal to
the required speed;
❒push the lever up (+) for at least
three seconds, then release it: the
car speed will be stored. The ac-
celerator pedal may be released.
If needed (e.g. for overtaking), press
the accelerator pedal to accelerate: the
car will return to the previously set
speed when the pedal is released. DEVICE ENGAGEMENT
Turn the knurling ring A-fig. 75to
ON.
The device must be enabled only with
4
thor 5thgear engaged. Travelling
downhill with the device engaged, the
car speed may increase more than the
memorised one. When the device is
activated the instrument panel warn-
ing light Üturns on and the relevant
message (where provided) is dis-
played on the multifunctional display.
