WARNING
Parking manoeuvres however are
always the driver’
s responsibility.
When making these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are present in your
manoeuvring space. The parking sensors
serve to assist the driver, but must never
allow his or her attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even
those executed at low speeds.
WARNING BUZZER
The information concerning the presence and
distance of an obstacle from the car is transmitted
by means of acoustic signals from buzzers
installed in the passenger compartment:
❒in the versions with 4 rear sensors, a buzzer in
the front dashboard area warns of the presence
of rear obstacles;
❒in the versions with 10 sensors, a front buzzer
warns of the presence of obstacles at the front
and a buzzer located at the rear warns of the
presence of rear obstacles.
The acoustic signal:
❒increases as the distance between the car and
the obstacle decreases;❒becomes continuous when the distance between
the car and the obstacle is less than 30 cm and
stops immediately if the distance increases
❒remains constant if the distance remains
unchanged; if this situation concerns the side
sensors, the buzzer will stop after about 3
seconds to avoid, for example, warning
indications in the event of manoeuvres along
walls.
The sensor must be free of mud, dirt,
snow or ice in order for the system
to work. Be careful not to scratch or
damage the sensors while cleaning them.
Avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths. The
sensors should be washed using clean water
with the addition of car shampoo if necessary.
When using special washing equipment such
as high pressure jets or steam cleaning, clean
the sensors very quickly keeping the jet more
than 10 cm away.Only have the bumpers repainted or
any retouches to the paintwork in the
area of the sensors carried out by a
Lancia Dealership. Incorrect paint
application could affect the operation of the
parking sensors.

WARNING
Should it be absolutely necessary to
carry a child
on the front seat in a
backwards-facing craddle seat, the
passenger's front and side air bags must be
deactivated through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by checking
the warning light on the instrument panel.
The passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to avoid
the child seat from coming into contact with
the dashboard.
FITTING "UNIVERSAL" CHILD SEAT
(with seat belts)GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing
backwards on a cradle seat, which, supporting the
head, does not induce stress on the neck in the
event of sharp decelerations.
The cradle is restrained by the car seat belts, as
shown in fig. 97 and it must restrain the child
in turn with its own belts.

AIRBAGThe car is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger, front side bags for driver and passenger
chest-shoulder protection (for versions/markets,
where provided), and window bags for protecting
the heads of front occupants.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags protect
the front seat occupants in the event of head-on
impacts of medium-high severity, by placing
the bag between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of
impacts (side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) air bags are not a
replacement of but complementary to the seat
belts, which you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt move forward and may come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is reduced in these
circumstances.Front air bags may not deploy in the following
situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable
objects not involving the front surface of the car
(e.g. wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their deployment
would be inappropriate. In these cases, non-
deployment does not indicate a system
malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering
wheel, on the
dashboard in the passenger side airbag area,
on side upholstery on roof and on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side of the dashboard since they
could interfere with correct inflation of
the passenger airbag and also cause serious
injury to the passengers.

WARNING
SERIOUS DANGER: never place
cradle child seats
facing backwards
on the front passenger seat of cars
with active passenger side airbag.
Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Always deactivate the passenger side
airbag when placing a child seat on the front
seat. The passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in order
to avoid the child seat from coming into
contact with the dashboard. Although this is
not mandatory by law, the airbag should
be immediately reactivated when children
are no longer transported to ensure better
protection for adults.
Deactivation of passenger side front airbag
and side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on the front
seat, deactivate the passenger side front airbag
and side bags (for versions/markets, where
provided). With the airbags deactivated, the
warning light
switches on in the instrument
panel.
IMPORTANT To deactivate the airbags see the
description in the "Getting to know your car"
chapter, "Menu Options" paragraph.SIDE BAGS (Side bag - Window bag)
Side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These comprise two types of bags located in the
front seat backrests fig. 106 which protect the
chest and shoulder area of the occupants in the
event of a side impact of medium-high severity.
