Glow plug preheating
This warning light comes on when the key is
turned to MAR. It will go out as soon as the glow
plugs have reached a predetermined temperature.
Start the engine as soon as the warning light goes out.
IMPORTANT At high outdoor temperatures the warning
light stays on for an extremely short time.
Glow plug heating failure
The warning light will blink in the event of a failure in the
glow plug preheating system. Go to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible.
The display will show a dedicated message.

Water in diesel fuel filter (Multijet
versions) (amber)
This warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should go off after
a few seconds. The warning light turns on when there is
water in the diesel fuel filter. The display will show a ded-
icated message.
c
The presence of water in the fuel system circuit
may cause severe damage to the injection sys-
tem and irregular engine operation. If the
c
warning light comes on (together with a message on the
display on some versions), go to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible to have the system bled. Water may
have been introduced in the tank if this appears im-
mediately after refuelling: in this case, stop the engine
immediately and contact a Lancia Dealership.
ABS system failure (amber)
This warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should go off after a
few seconds. The warning light lights up when the
system is either not working or not available. Under these cir-
cumstances the braking system will work as normal with-
out the extra performance offered by the ABS system.
Drive carefully to the nearest Lancia Dealership to have the
system checked.
The display will show a dedicated message.

Particularly strong radio frequency interfer-
ence may cause the T.P.M.S. system to func-
tion incorrectly. This condition is indicated
to the driver by a message (for versions/markets,
where provided).
The warning message will go off automatically as
soon as the radio-frequency noise ceases to disturb
the system.
External lighting failure (amber)
This warning light (or symbol on the display)
comes on when a failure is detected in any of
the following lights:
❍sidelights;
❍brake lights (for versions/markets, where provided);
❍rear fog lights;
❍direction indicators;
❍number plate lights;
❍daylight lights.

Rear fog lights (amber)
The warning light comes on when the rear fog
lights are turned on.
4
Front fog lights (green)
The warning light comes on when the front fog
lights are turned on.
5
Direction indicators
(green - intermittent)
The warning lights turn on when the direction
indicator control lever is moved downwards,
upwards or when the hazard warning light
button is pressed.

Tyre pressure unsuitable for speed
This warning light (for versions/markets, where provid-
ed) comes on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but
it should go off after a few seconds.
Should it be necessary to travel at a speed higher than 160
km/h, inflate the tyres to the pressure value specified in
paragraph “Inflation pressures” in chapter “6”.
If the T.P.M.S. system (for versions/markets, where pro-
vided) detects that the inflation pressure of one or more
tyres is unsuitable for the speed being maintained, it lights
up the warning light or symbol (together with a message
shown on the display) (see paragraph “Insufficient tyre
inflation pressure” in this chapter). The warning light
remains on until the vehicle speed is reduced to below a
certain threshold (see paragraph “T.P.M.S. system” in this
chapter).
IMPORTANT reduce speed immediately if this occurs.
Tyre overheating could irreparably compromise tyre per-
formance and life, and in extreme cases may even cause
the tyre to explode.The fault relating to these lights may be caused by: one or
more burnt lamps, a blown protection fuse or interruption
of the electrical connection.
The display will show a dedicated message.

❍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.

When the function is active, “S” is displayed on the in-
strument panel. Press the button once again to deacti-
vate the function and return to the standard driving mode.
IMPORTANT The function is activated about 5 seconds
after the SPORT button is pressed.
IMPORTANT The steering may become slightly stiff fol-
lowing parking manoeuvres involving a lot of steering.
This is normal and caused by a system to prevent the mo-
tor from overheating. No servicing is required. The pow-
er steering system will return to normal operation the next
time the car is used.Under no circumstances should after-market
operations be carried out involving steering
system or steering column modifications (e.g.:
installation of anti-theft device). This could nega-
tively affect performance and safety, cause the lapse
of the warranty and also result in vehicle non-com-
pliance with type-approval requirements.
Before servicing the car, switch off the engine
and remove the key from the ignition device to
activate the steering lock. This is especially
important when the car wheels do not touch the
ground. If this is not possible (if the key must be on
MAR or the engine must be running), remove the
main fuse which protects the electric power steering.
On some versions, with the CITY function ac-
tivated, the SPORT function is not available.
To activate the SPORT function, deactivate the
CITY function and vice versa, because they are reci-
procally incompatible.

IMPORTANT The steering may become slightly stiff fol-
lowing parking manoeuvres involving a lot of steering.
This is normal and is caused by a system to prevent the
motor from overheating. No servicing is required. The
power steering system will return to normal operation the
next time the car is used.T.P.M.S. SYSTEM
(Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The car may be equipped with a tyre pressure monitoring
system (T.P.M.S.). This system comprises a radio fre-
quency transmitter fitted to each wheel (on the wheel rim
inside the tyre), which is able to send information on the
tyre inflation pressure of each wheel to the control unit.
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THE
T.P.M.S. SYSTEM
The fault indications are not stored and will therefore not
be displayed after the engine has been switched off and
then on again. If the fault conditions persist, the control
unit will send the relative indications to the instrument
panel only after the vehicle has been in motion for a short
time.
Before servicing the car, always switch off the
engine and remove the key from the ignition
to activate the steering lock. This is especially
important when the car wheels do not touch the
ground. If this is not possible (the key must be on
MAR or the engine must be running), remove the
main fuse that protects the electric power steering.
The T.P.M.S.system is not able to detect sud-
den tyre inflation pressure losses (for exam-
ple when a tyre explodes). In this case stop
the car, braking with care and avoiding sharp steer-
ing actions.

146SAFETY
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the efficiency of the seat belts, the car is fit-
ted with pretensioners. These devices, in the event of a vi-
olent frontal impact, rewind the seat belts by a few cen-
timetres. In this way they ensure that the seat belt adheres
perfectly to the wearer before the restraining action be-
gins. The seat belt reel locks to indicate that the preten-
sioner has cut in; the seat belt cannot be drawn back up
even when guided manually.
This car is provided with a second pretensioner (in the
running board area). Its activation is signalled by the
shortening of the metal cable.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection
from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat
belt keeping it firmly close to the chest and pelvis.
A small amount of smoke may be produced during the ac-
tivation of the pretensioners. This smoke is in no way tox-
ic and presents no fire hazard. The pretensioner does not
require any maintenance or greasing. Anything that mod-
ifies its original conditions invalidates its efficiency. If due
to unusual natural events (floods, sea storms, etc.) the de-
vice has been affected by water and mud, it must neces-
sarily be replaced.
The pretensioner can only be used once. Go
to a Lancia Dealership to have it replaced af-
ter is has been deployed. The expiry date is
shown on the label on the door edge: refer to a Lan-
cia Dealership when the time comes to replace the
device.
Operations which lead to shocks, vibrations
or localised heating (over 100°C for a max-
imum of 6 hours) in the area around the pre-
tensioners may damage or trigger them. These de-
vices are not affected by vibrations caused by ir-
regularities of the road surface or low obstacles such
as kerbs, etc. Contact Lancia Dealership for any as-
sistance.
