IGNITION SWITCH
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electric de-
vices (e.g. sound system, central
door locking system, etc.) may
work.
❒MAR: driving position. All electric
devices may work.
❒AV V: engine starting (unstable po-
sition).
The ignition switch is fitted with a
safety system that, in the event the en-
gine is not started, turns back the ig-
nition key to STOPbefore repeating
the starting operation.
Under no circumstances
should aftermarket opera-
tions involving steering system or
steering column modifications (e.g.:
installation of alarm) be carried
out that could badly affect perfor-
mance and safety. This also causes
the warranty to become null and
void and results in vehicle non-
compliance with type-approval re-
quirements.
WARNING
fig. 19L0D0021m
If the ignition device is
tampered with (e.g.: at-
tempted theft), have it checked over
by a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.
WARNING
Always remove the key
when you leave your car to
prevent someone from accidentally
operating the controls. Remember
to apply the handbrake. Engage
first gear if the car is parked up-
hill or reverse if the car is parked
downhill. Never leave children un-
attended in the car.
WARNING
STEERING LOCK
Engagement
When the key is in position STOP, re-
move the key and turn the steering
wheel until it is locked.
Switching off
Rock the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR.
Never extract the key while
the vehicle is moving. The
steering wheel would be locked as
soon as the steering wheel is turned.
This also applies to when the car is
towed.

IMPORTANT The air recirculation
function makes it possible to reach the
required heating or cooling conditions
faster. It is however inadvisable to use
it on rainy/cold days as it would con-
siderably increase the possibility of
the windows misting inside, especially
if the climate control compressor is
off.
Recirculation is forced off (i.e. air is
introduced from the outside) when
the the outside temperature is colder
than 5-7°C to prevent misting up.Climate control

the LED on the but-
ton is on, to turn the climate control
compressor off. The LED will go out.
Press the button when the LED is off
to restore automatically system con-
trol and use of the compressor. The
LED will light up on the button in
this case.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is switched
off to prevent misting up. Although
the system is capable of maintaining
the required temperature, the word
FULLwill disappear from the display.
If on the other hand the system can-
not maintain the required tempera-
ture, the digits will blink and the word
AUTOwill disappear.
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)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This sensor detects changes of exter-
nal lights according to the sensitivity
of the setting: the higher the sensitiv-
ity, 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 “Multifunctional dis-
play”.

At each single movement of the stalk,
the lights will remain on for an extra
30 seconds up to a maximum of 210

kept in that position manually. When
released, the stalk will return to posi-
tionAand the wiper will be automat-
ically stopped.
IMPORTANT Replace wiper blades as
specified in the “Maintenance and
care” chapter. RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the
driving mirror in contact with the
windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjusting the frequency
of the windscreen wiper strokes as to
the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in
the sensor area.
Activation
Move the right stalk down by one
click.
The activation of the rain sensor is
signalled by a control acquisition
flick.
Turn the ring F-fig. 71to increase the
rain sensor sensitivity.
The increase of the sensitivity of the
rain sensor is signalled by a control
and acquisition flick.
The smart cycle is started when the
windscreen wiper is turned on while
the rain sensor is active without sup-
plementary flick after 5 seconds. The
sensor will resume normal 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.
The jet will be released immediately
when the wiper stops after four flicks.
A further stroke after 5 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 rear window wiper operation is
not reset, contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship.

CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, 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 towns.STORING THE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring A-fig. 73toONand press
the accelerator pedal to the re-
quired speed;
❒push the lever upwards (+) for at
least 3 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. TURING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring A-fig. 73toON.
The device can only be turned on in
4th or 5th gear. Travelling downhill
with the device engaged, the car speed
may increase more than the memo-
rised one. When the device is acti-
vated the warning light turns on to-
gether with the relevant message on
the instrument panel (for versions/
markets, where provided).
