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 po-
sition 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, because if the
airbag is deployed, it may cause fa-
tal injuries to the baby regardless of
the severity of the crash causing the
deployment.
WARNING
On cars supplied with a de-
activation system for the
front passenger airbag,
children can sit on the front
seat, when required.
In this case, however, make
sure that the airbag is actually de-
activated by checking the amber
warning light on the panel (see the
paragraph “front airbag on passen-
ger side” in the section on both front
and side airbags). Move the pas-
senger’s seat as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child
seat and the dashboard.

PARKING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
❒when on a slope, engage a gear
(engage first gear if the car is
faced uphill or reverse if it is faced
downhill) and leave the wheels
steered.
When parking the car on a steep
slope, it is advisable to also place a
wedge or a rock under the wheels.
PROLONGED parking with a wheel
on the pavement or steered against a
step should be avoided. Do not leave
the ignition key on MARto prevent
draining the battery. Always remove
the key when you leave the car.
HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located be-
tween the two front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the
handbrake.
Four or five notches are normally suf-
ficient to lock the car on flat terrain,
while nine or ten may be necessary on
a steep slope with the car loaded. IMPORTANT If this is not the case,
contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled
up and the ignition key is on MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
xwill turn on.
Proceed as follows to release the
handbrake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and
press release button A-fig. 1;
❒keep button Apressed and lower
the lever. Warning light
xwill
turn off.
Press the brake pedal when carrying
out this operation to prevent the car
from moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT If the handbrake lever
tends to reach end of its stroke
(groove on the central console), con-
tact a Lancia Dealership to have the
handbrake adjusted.
fig. 1L0D0149m
Never leave children unat-
tended in the car. Always re-
move the ignition key when
leaving the car and take it
out with you.

Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine
compartment should be carefully
washed, without directing the jet
against electronic control units. Have
this operation performed at a spe-
cialised workshop.
IMPORTANT Perform this operation
on a cold engine and with the key at
STOP. After the washing operation,
make sure that the various protections
(e.g. rubber caps and guards) have
not been removed or damaged.
Never use flammable prod-
ucts, such as petrol ether or
rectified petrol to clean inside the
car. The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing during the
cleaning operation may cause a fire.
WARNINGINTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not
trapped under the mats (due to water
dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the
sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
PA R T S
Remove dust with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use
a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moist-
ened with a solution of water and
neutral detergent.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts
with a moist cloth and a solution of
water and mild soap. Use specific
products for cleaning plastic, without
solvents and specifically designed to
prevent damage to the appearance
and colour of the treated parts to re-
move grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or
petroL to clean the glass of the in-
strument panel or other plastic parts.
