If the xwarning lightturns on when travel-
ling (with the message on the display) stop
the car immediately and contact a Lancia
Dealership.
Brake pad wear (amber)
The warning light (or symbol on the display)
switches on when the front brake pads show
signs of wear; under these circumstances have
them replaced as soon as possible. The display shows the
dedicated message.
IMPORTANT Because the car is equipped with a wear de-
tection system only for the front brake pads, when these
are replaced the rear brake pads should also be checked
for wear.
d
Airbag failure (red)
When the key is turned to the MAR position
the warning light comes on but should go out
after a few seconds. The warning light stays on
constantly if there is a failure in the air bag system.
The display will show a dedicated message.
¬
If the ¬warning light does not come on
when the key is turned to MAR or if it stays
on with the car in motion (together with the
message on the display) there could be a fault in the
restraint systems; under these circumstances, the
air bags or pretensioners may not be deployed in
the event of an impact or, more rarely, they could
be deployed accidentally. Before continuing your
journey, contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
system checked immediately.
The failure of warning light ¬is indicated
by warning light
“flashing for longer than
the usual four seconds, thus signalling that
the front passenger airbag is deactivated. In ad-
dition, the air bag system automatically disables
the air bags on the passenger side (both front and
side air bags). In this case, the warning light
¬
may not indicate failures in the retaining system.
Contact a Lancia Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
EBD failure (red)
If warning lightsxand>are on at the same
time with the engine running, this indicates
an EBD system failure or that the system is
not available. Early locking of the rear wheels
may occur in the event of sharp braking, pos-
sibly causing the car to swerve.
Drive very carefully to a Lancia Dealership to
have the system inspected immediately. The display will
show a dedicated message.

Passenger-side air bag/side bags
deactivated (amber)
The
“warning light switches on when the
front passenger’s airbag and side bag are dis-
abled. With the front passenger airbags enabled, when
the ignition key is turned to MAR the
“warning light
comes on steadily for about four seconds, flashes for an-
other four seconds and then should go out.
“
Failure of the warning light “is indicated
by warning light
¬coming on. In addition,
the airbag system automatically disables
the airbags on the passenger’s side (both front and
side airbags for versions/markets where provided).
Contact a Lancia Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
Seat belts unfastened (red)
This warning light comes on constantly when
the car is not moving and the driver’s seat belt
is not correctly fastened. The warning light will
flash and a buzzer will sound if the vehicle is in motion
and the front seat belts are not correctly fastened.
The S.B.R. (Seat Belt Reminder) system buzzer can only
be permanently switched off by a Lancia Dealership.
The system can be reactivated using the Set-up Menu.
<
Low battery charge (red)
The warning light switches on when the igni-
tion key is turned to MAR, but it should switch
off as soon as the engine has started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief delay before going
out is acceptable).
If the warning light stays on, constantly or flashing, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership immediately.
w
Continuously on: low engine oil pressure
(red)
Flashing:exhausted engine oil
(only Multijet versions with DPF – red)
When the key is turned to MAR the warning light comes
on, but should go out as soon as the engine is started.
1. Low engine oil pressure
The warning light will turn on constantly together with
the message on the display (for versions/markets where
provided) when the system detects that the engine oil
pressure is too low.
v
If the warning light vswitches on when
the car is travelling (on certain versions to-
gether with the message on the display) stop
the engine immediately and contact a Lancia
Dealership.

KNOWING YOUR CAR39
LANCIA CODE SYSTEM
This is an electronic engine locking system which in-
creases protection against attempted thefts of the car. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key is removed.
Each key contains an electronic device which modulates
the signal emitted during ignition by an antenna built
into the ignition device. The signal is the “password”, dif-
ferent every time the car is started, through which the
control unit recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the car is started by turning the ignition key
to MAR, the Lancia CODE system control unit sends an
acknowledgement code to the engine control unit to de-
activate the immobilizer.
The code is sent only if the control unit of the Lancia
CODE system has acknowledged the code received from
the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Lan-
cia CODE system deactivates the functions of the man-
agement engine control unit.
If the code is not recognised correctly during ignition, the
Ywarning light (or symbol in the display) comes on.
In this case turn the key to STOP and then to MAR; if the
immobilizer function persists, try again with the spare set
of keys. Contact a Lancia Dealership if you still cannot
start the engine.IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which must be
stored by the system control unit. To have new keys pro-
grammed (up to a maximum number of eight keys), con-
tact a Lancia Dealership and be ready to present all the
keys you have in your possession, the CODE card, a per-
sonal identity document and the car ownership docu-
ments. The key codes not presented during the program-
ming procedure will be deleted to ensure that any keys
that are lost or stolen cannot be used to start the engine.
Warning light Y(or symbol in the display)
switching on whilst driving
❍If the warning light Y(or symbol in the display)
switches on, this means that the system is running
a self-diagnosis test (caused, for example, by a volt-
age drop).
❍If the warning light Y(or symbol in the display) re-
mains on, contact a Lancia dealership.
The electronic components inside the key
may be damaged if the key is submitted to
strong shocks.
44KNOWING YOUR CAR
IMPORTANT The engine immobilizer function is guar-
anteed by the Lancia CODE, which is automatically ac-
tivated when the ignition key is extracted from the starter
device.
TURNING THE ALARM ON
With the doors and bonnet closed and the ignition key
either turned to STOP or removed, point the key with the
remote control towards the vehicle and press and release
button
Á.
Excluding some markets, the system produces an acoustic
warning (beep) and enables door locking.
The switching on of the alarm is preceded by a self-di-
agnosis stage: if a fault is detected, the system emits a new
acoustic signal together with the display of a message (see
“Panel warning lights” chapter).
In this case switch off the alarm by pressing
Ë, check that
all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are closed correctly;
then switch the alarm back on by pressing
Á.
If a door or the bonnet is not properly shut, it will be ex-
cluded from the testing by the alarm system.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the doors,
bonnet and tailgate are correctly closed, a failure has oc-
curred in system operation. Contact a Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANT Centrally locking the doors using the metal
insert on the key does not activate the alarm.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to meet requirements
in various countries.
TURNING THE ALARM OFF
Press button
Ëon the key with the remote control.
The following operations are performed (excluding some
markets):
❍the direction indicators flash briefly twice;
❍two brief acoustic signals are emitted (“BEEP”);
❍the doors are unlocked.
IMPORTANT Activating the central opening using the
key’s metal insert does not turn the alarm off.

IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different positions fig. 15:
❍STOP: engine off, key can be removed, steering
locked. Some electrical devices (e.g. sound system,
central door locking system, etc.) can operate.
❍MAR: driving position. All electrical devices can op-
erate.
❍AVV: engine starting.
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety system that re-
quires the ignition key to be turned back to STOP if the
engine does not start before the starting operation can be
repeated.STEERING LOCK
Engagement
When the key is at STOP, remove the key and turn the
steering wheel until it locks.
Disengagement
Move the steering wheel slightly as you turn the ignition
key to MAR.
IMPORTANT In some parking conditions (e.g.: wheels
turned) the effort required to move the steering wheel and
disengage the steering lock may be increased.
fig. 15L0E0107m
Never remove the key while the car is mov-
ing. The steering wheel would automatically
lock as soon as you try to turn it. This also
applies to when the car is towed. Under no cir-
cumstances should aftermarket operations be car-
ried out involving steering system or steering col-
umn modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device). This could negatively affect performance
and safety, invalidate the warranty, cause serious
safety problems and also result in non-compliance
of the car with type-approval requirements.
