Trip B”). “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Range
This indicates the approximate distance which can
be travelled with the present amount of fuel in
the tank. The message “----” will appear on the
display in the following cases:
❒range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
❒car parked with engine running for a long
period.
IMPORTANT The range value variation can be
affected by several factors: driving style, type
of route (motorway, towns and cities, mountain
roads, etc.), conditions of use (load, tyre pressures,
etc.). Trip planning must therefore take the above
into account.
Distance travelled
Shows the distance covered since the start of the
new journey.
Average consumption
Shows the approximate average fuel consumption
since the start of the new journey.Instantaneous consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is
constantly updated.. The display will show "----"
if the car is parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This shows the car average speed as a function of
the overall time elapsed since the start of the
new mission.
Trip time
Shows the time elapsed since the start of a new
journey.

, the
windscreen wiper will automatically adapt
operating speed to the speed of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers operational, if reverse
gear is engaged, the rear window wiper is
automatically activated.
Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor protection,
which prevents operation for a few seconds,
may intervene. If operation is not restored
(even after using the key to restart the engine),
contact a Lancia Dealership.Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the
windscreen."Smart washing" function

The rain sensor is located behind the rear view
mirror in contact with the windscreen fig. 36 and
has the purpose of automatically adjusting the
frequency of the windscreen wiper strokes
depending on the intensity of the rain during
intermittent operation.
The sensor has an adjustment range that varies
progressively from wiper still (no stroke) when the
windscreen is dry, to wiper at first continuous
speed (slow continuous operation) with intense
rain.

CRUISE CONTROL(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving
assistance device which allows the car to be driven
at a chosen speed above 30 km/h on long
stretches of dry, straight roads with few variations
(e.g. motorways), without having to depress the
accelerator pedal. It is therefore not recommended
to use this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use the device in town.
Activating the device
Activation is indicated by warning light
switching on and, on some versions, by a
message on the display.
The speed adjustment function cannot be
activated in 1
stor reverse gear; it is advisable to
activate the function in 4
th
or higher gears.
When travelling downhill with the device active,
the car speed may slightly exceed the stored one.
Storing car speed
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 37 to ON and press the
accelerator pedal so that the car reaches the
desired speed;
❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at least one
second, then release it: the speed is memorised
and you can therefore release the accelerator
pedal.If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate simply by depressing the accelerator
pedal: when you release the pedal, the car goes
back to the speed stored previously.
Restoring the stored speed
If the device has been deactivated, for example by
depressing the brake or clutch pedal, the stored
speed can be restored as follows:
❒accelerate progressively until a speed close to
that stored is reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time that the
speed was stored;
❒press the RES button.
