❍forced disablement (air recirculation always off, air
drawn in from the outside), - the LED on button
Tshould be off;
❍forced engagement (air recirculation always on), the
LED on button
Tshould be lit up.
When OFF is pressed, the climate control system auto-
matically activates air recirculation (the LED on button
Tshould be on). It is still possible to activate outside
air recirculation (LED on the button is off) and vice ver-
sa, by pressing button
T.
With the OFF button pressed (LED on the button is lit
up), it is not possible to enable the AQS (Air Quality Sys-
tem) function.
IMPORTANT The air recirculation system makes it pos-
sible to reach the required heating or cooling conditions
faster. Do not use the air recirculation function on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase the pos-
sibility of the windows misting up inside, especially if the
climate control system is not switched on. It is advisable
to switch internal air recirculation on while in queues or
in tunnels to prevent the introduction of polluted air. Do
not use the function for a long time, particularly if there
are many passengers on board, to prevent the windows
from misting up.Enabling the AQS (Air Quality System) function
The AQS function (AQS appears on the display), auto-
matically activates internal air recirculation when the out-
side air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).
IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after 15 con-
secutive minutes of the internal air recirculation system
functioning, the climate control system enables the intake
of outdoor air for approximately 1 minute to freshen the
air in the passenger compartment. This takes place re-
gardless of the pollution level of the outside air.

REAR WINDOW WIPER/REAR WINDOW
WASHER
This only operates with the ignition turned to MAR.
Turn the selector wheel to
'to operate the rear window
wiper.
With the windscreen wiper active, turn the selector wheel
to
'activate the rear window wiper which, in this case,
operates (in the different positions) in sync with the wind-
screen wipe but at half its rate. When reverse gear is en-
gaged with windscreen wiper active, the rear window wiper
automatically turns on in slow continuous mode.
It stops when the reverse gear is disengaged.
Do not use the windscreen or rearscreen
wiper to remove layers of snow or ice from
the windscreen. In such conditions, the wind-
screen wiper may be subjected to excessive stress
and the motor protection which prevents operation
for a few seconds may trip. If the issue persists, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.

The rear window wiper stops operating a few strokes af-
ter the lever is released; after a few seconds, a further
cleaning stroke completes the wiping operation.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The rain sensor A-fig. 30 is located behind the interior
rear-view mirror in contact with the windscreen and au-
tomatically adjusts the frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes according to the rain intensity during intermittent
operation.
The sensor has an adjustment range that varies progres-
sively from wiper still (no stroke) when the windscreen
is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed (slow continu-
ous operation) with intense rain.Activation
Move the right lever down by one click.
The activation of the rain sensor is signalled by a com-
mand acquisition stroke.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
By turning selector wheel F-fig. 29 is it possible to increase
the sensitivity of the rain sensor to obtain a more rapid
variation between wiper still (no stroke) when the wind-
screen is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed (slow con-
tinuous operation).
The increase in the sensitivity of the rain sensor is signalled
by a control and acquisition “stroke”.
When the windscreen washer is operated with the rain sen-
sor activated, the normal washing cycle is performed, at
the end of which the rain sensor resumes its normal au-
tomatic function.

Anti-pinch safety device
The vehicle is equipped with an anti-pinch safety device
for the upwards motion of the windows.
This safety system is capable of recognizing the presence
of an obstacle whilst the window is closing; when this hap-
pens, the system stops the travel of the glass and, de-
pending on the position of the window, reverses its move-
ment.
This device is also useful when the windows are activat-
ed accidentally by children on board the vehicle.
The anti-pinch function is active both during manual and
automatic operation of the electric windows. Following
the intervention of the anti-pinch system, the window trav-
el is immediately interrupted and subsequently reversed
until the lower end of travel is reached. During this time
the window cannot be operated in any way.IMPORTANT If the anti-pinch protection intervenes 5
times consecutively within 1 minute or a system failure
is detected, the automatic window closing function is in-
hibited. The window can then only be operated in steps of
half a second and the button must be released following
each step.
One of the following manoeuvres must be carried out in
order to restore correct operation:
❍switch off and restart the engine;
❍fully lower the window concerned.
IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or removed, the
electric windows remain active for about 3 minutes and
are deactivated the moment a door is opened.
