2011 Lancia Ypsilon instrument panel

❒Activation:pressing the button
starts the
search.
❒Search:through side sensors, the system
continuously searches for a free parking space,
suitable for the car's dimensions. The driver
chooses on which side of the road they intend to
park using the direction indicators (if no
information is available from the direction
indicators or hazard warning lights, the search
takes place on the passenger side).
IMPORTANT The SEARCHING is disabled if,
after about 10 minutes, a suitable parking space
has not been found.
❒Identification:if the system identifies a free
parking space that is a suitable size for the
car, it signals its presence and indicates
the actions required for starting the manoeuvre.
❒Manoeuvre:the driver is asked to engage
reverse gear, release the steering wheel and
manage the accelerator, brake and clutch (in the
case of manual gearbox) or accelerator and
brake (in the case of automatic gearbox) (for
versions/markets, where provided). During the
reverse parking manoeuvre, the system manages
the steering wheel automatically. According to
the parking space, the manoeuvre may end
through reversing or further manoeuvres, both
in forward gear and in reverse, may be
necessary. After the first manoeuvre, when the
rear buzzer sounds continuously, the driver
is requested to disengage reverse and engage the
forward gear. If this is not enough, when thecontinuous tone is reached, the driver is
requested to engage reverse. The semi-
automatic manoeuvre ends when the display
shows the message "End manually".
❒Conclusion:at the end of the manoeuvre, the
driver resumes control and, if necessary, has to
complete engagement manually.
IMPORTANT MANOEUVRING is disabled if,
after 3 minutes, parking has not been completed.
IMPORTANT Steering will be realigned after
reversing when reverse gear is disengaged. The
driver must complete the manoeuvre manually.
The Magic Parking operation is based
on various components: front and
rear parking sensors, side sensors,
steering system, wheels and braking system,
instrument panel. Bear in mind that
malfunction of one of these components could
compromise the operation of the system.
DESCRIPTION OF MANOEUVRING STAGES
Activation

Since the system recognises parking spaces even
when it is deactivated, the system can be activated
straight away after having driven past an
adjacent parking space that is deemed suitable.
If the system has effectively identified a parking
space, searching will not be performed and the
system will notify the driver of the operations
required to carry out the manoeuvre correctly
through the instrument panel display .
Search for a parking space
While searching fig. 79 the car should continue
following its route at a speed of below 30 km/h
and at a distance of around 50 cm to 130 cm from
parked cars. A parking space is considered
suitable if it is about 80 cm longer than the
dimensions of the car.
Selection of search side and carrying out
manoeuvre
To select the search side and carry out the
manoeuvre, proceed as follows:1)
Choose to carry out the search for the space
and the manoeuvre on the passenger side with:
❒direction indicator in middle position;
❒hazard warning lights on;
❒hazard warning lights on and direction indicator
in passenger side position;
❒direction indicator activated in passenger side
position.
2)Choose to carry out the search for the space
and the manoeuvre on the driver's side with:
❒direction indicator activated in driver's side
position;
❒hazard warning lights on and direction indicator
in driver's side position.
The system will notify the driver of the side on
which the search and the manoeuvre will take
place by displaying messages and switching on the
or
warning lights on the instrument panel.
Searching occurs on both sides of the road:
therefore the selection can be made through the
direction indicators even after having passed
a suitable parking place.
IMPORTANT While searching, speed should not
exceed 30 km/h; when 25 km/h has been reached,
the driver is asked to decrease the speed; if the
speed of 30/h is exceeded, the system is disabled;
in this case, the system must be restarted by
pressing button
).

The car can be stopped during the manoeuvre
and, whilst remaining stationary, reverse gear can
temporarily be released (for example, to allow a
pedestrian to pass through the area of the
manoeuvre).
The speed should be less than about 7 km/h
during the manoeuvre, otherwise the parking
manoeuvre will be interrupted.
If the driver carries out a voluntary or involuntary
action on the steering during the parking
manoeuvre (touching it or preventing its
movement), the manoeuvre will be interrupted.
If the road surface is very uneven or there are
obstacles under the wheels affecting the movement
of the car, preventing it from continuing along
the correct trajectory, the manoeuvre may be
interrupted.
End of manoeuvre
If the size of parking space permits, the parking
manoeuvre may be performed in one manoeuvre.
When the reverse gear is disengaged the wheels
will be realigned and the manoeuvre will be
considered completed (the system will
consequently be deactivated).
If the size of the parking space is smaller, it may
take several manoeuvres: the driver will be
advised to complete the parking manoeuvre
manually via a dedicated message in the
instrument panel display.
WARNING
If you wish to stop the steering wheel
with your hands
during a manoeuvre,
it is advisable to handle it firmly on the
outer rim. Do not try and keep your hands
on the inside or hold the spokes.
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒The ultimate responsibility when parking,
however, always rests with the driver. During
these manoeuvres, always make sure that no
people, animals or objects are within the
manoeuvring area. The Magic Parking system
(like parking sensors) is designed to assist
drivers: in all cases, you must always pay the
utmost attention during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even when these are carried out
a low speed:
❒If the sensors undergo shocks influencing their
position, the system operation could be strongly
degraded.

S.B.R. SYSTEM (Seat Belt Reminder)This system consists of a device which, in
conjunction with the
warning light flashing on
the instrument panel and an intermittent acoustic
signal, warns the driver and front passenger if
their seat belts have not been fastened.
On some versions there is also a panel (provided
as an alternative to the warning light on the
instrument panel) located above the rear-view
mirror fig. 93 which warns the front and back seat
passengers via acoustic and visual signals if their
seat belts have not been fastened.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Lancia
Dealership. The SBR system can only be
reactivated via the display Set Up Menu (see
chapter “Knowing your car").
The warning lights may be red or green and
operate as follows:
❒1 = front left seat (driver status for left-hand
drive versions);
❒2 = rear left seat (passenger);
❒3 = rear right seat (passenger);
❒4 = front right seat (passenger status for
left-hand drive versions).
