10KNOWING YOUR CAR
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.

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.

IMPORTANT The “Scheduled Servicing Plan” ensures
car servicing every 35,000 km (or the equivalent in
miles). This is automatically displayed when the ignition
key is in the MAR position, from 2,000 km (or the equiv-
alent in miles) before the service and reappears every
200 km (or the equivalent in miles). Below 200 km ser-
vicing indications are more frequent. The display will be
in kilometres or miles depending on the measurement
unit settings. When the next scheduled service is ap-
proaching and the key is turned to MAR, the word Ser-
vice will appear on the display, followed by the number
of kilometres or miles left. Go to a Lancia Dealership,

CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY
For optimal protection in the event of a collision, all pas-
sengers must be seated and wearing adequate restraint
systems.
This is even more important for children.
This prescription is compulsory in all EC countries ac-
cording to EC Directive 2003/20/EC.
Compared with adults, a child’s head is proportionally
larger and heavier than the rest of the body, while mus-
cles and bone structure are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems are necessary which
are different from adult seat belts.
The results of research on the best child restraint system
are contained in the European Standard ECE-R44, which
enforces the use of restraint systems classified into five
groups:
Group 0 0-10 kg in weight
Group 0+ 0-13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg in weight
DANGER: Do not put cradle seats facing
backwards on the front seat if the front pas-
senger airbag is enabled. Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could cause fatal in-
juries to the baby. It is advisable always to
carry children on the rear seat which is the most
protected position in the event of an accident. Never
fit child seats systems on the front seat if the car
is provided with passenger’s air bag: as the airbag
could even cause fatal injury regardless of the
severity of the collision which caused its deploy-
ment. If necessary, children can stay on the front
seat, but only if the passenger’s airbag can be dis-
abled. In this case be sure to verify that the air bag
is actually deactivated, observing the “warning
light on the dashboard (see “Front air bag – pas-
senger side” in paragraph “Front air bags”). Move
the passenger’s seat as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child seat and the dashboard.

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.
