160SAFETY
“ISOFIX” CHILD RESTRAINT
ASSEMBLY SETUP
The car can be fitted with a Universal Isofix child re-
straint, a new European standardised system for carry-
ing children safely.
Isofix systems can be fitted alongside a traditional re-
straint system. An example of a child seat is shown in fig.
5. The Universal Isofix child seat covers weight group 1.
Specific Isofix child seats cover the other weight groups.
These seats must be designed, tested and type-approved
specifically for this car (refer to the list of cars attached
to the child seat).
Due to its different anchoring system, the child seat must
be anchored to the dedicated lower metal rings A-fig. 6,
set between rear seat backrest and rear cushion. After re-
moving the rear parcel shelf, secure the upper belt (pro-
vided with the child’s seat) to ring (after having opened
the associated covering zip B-fig. 6) located in the rear
seat backrest. Remember that, in the case of Universal Isofix child seats,
you can use all those seats bearing the marking ECE
R44/03 Universal Isofix.

SAFETY165
KNEE BAG ON DRIVER’S SIDE fig. 9
(for versions/markets where provided)
It consists of an instantly cushion housed into a special
compartment provided for the purpose under the lower
post guard at driver’s knee level, designed to give fur-
ther protection in the event of frontal impact.MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF PASSENGER FRONT
AIR BAG AND SIDE BAG
Should it be absolutely necessary to carry a child on the
front seat, the passenger front and side airbags can be de-
activated.
The instrument panel warning light
“will stay on con-
stantly until the passenger front air bag and the Side Bag
are reactivated.
IMPORTANT To deactivate the passenger’s front air bag
and the Side Bag (for versions/markets where provided),
refer to paragraphs “Multifunction display” and “Recon-
figurable multifunction display” in chapter “1”.
SERIOUS DANGER: never place cradle
child seats facing backwards on the front
passenger’s seat of cars with active passen-
ger’s air bag. Deployment of the airbag in an
accident could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Always deactivate the passenger air bag
when placing a child seat on the front seat. Move
the passenger’s seat as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child seat and the dashboard.
Even when this is not mandatory by law, the air
bag should be immediately reactivated when chil-
dren are no longer carried to ensure better protec-
tion for the adults.

166SAFETY
SIDE AIR BAGS
(Side bag – Window bag)
SIDE BAG fig. 10
It consists of an instantly-inflating bag housed in the front
seat backrest. It protects the chest and the pelvis of the
passengers in the event of side impacts of medium-high
severity.WINDOW BAG fig. 11
This is formed by two “curtain” window bags located be-
hind the side roof cover and are covered by special trim.
They are designed to protect the head of front and rear
passengers in the event of side collisions, thanks to the
wide cushion inflation surface.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side impact, the system
provides best protection if the passenger sits on the seat
in a correct position, thus allowing correct window bag
deployment.

168SAFETY
Never travel with objects on your lap, in
front of your chest or with something be-
tween your lips like a pipe or pencil, etc. In
the event of an impact where the air bags are de-
ployed this could cause serious injury.
Always keep your hands in the correct po-
sition on the steering wheel whilst driving so
that if the air bags are activated they can in-
flate properly. Do not drive with your body bent
forward. Keep the backrest in an upright position,
resting your back on it correctly.
If someone has tried to steal or damage your
car, and in the event of floods, have the air
bag system checked by a Lancia Dealership.
GENERAL WARNINGS
If when turning the key to MAR the warning
light¬does not turn on or if it stays on when
travelling, there could be a failure in the
safety systems; in this event air bags or preten-
sioners may not be deployed in case of impact or,
in a lower number of cases, they deploy acciden-
tally. Contact a Lancia Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
Do not cover the front seat backrests with covers
if side bags are fitted.
