Move the stalk upwards (unstable position) to
limit operation to the time for which the stalk is
held in this position. When released, the stalk will
return to its default position and the wiper will
be automatically stopped.

, 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

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

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.

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).

CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-ups will
prevent the engine from reaching optimal running
temperature.
Consequently, both consumption (from +15 to
+30% on urban cycle ) and emissions will
increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high fuel consumption is caused by heavy
traffic, for instance when travelling in a queue
with frequent use of low gears or in large towns
with many traffic lights. Winding mountain roads
and rough road surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged stops (e.g. level crossings) the
engine should be switched off.
TOWING TRAILERSIMPORTANT NOTES
For towing caravans or trailers the car must be
fitted with a type-approved tow hook and an
adequate electrical system. Installation must be
carried out by a specialist.
Install any specific and/or additional rear view
mirrors as specified by the Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer, steep hills
are harder to climb, braking distances increase
and overtaking takes longer depending on the
overall weight of the trail.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather
than constantly using the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the car's tow hook will
reduce the load capacity of the car by the same
amount. To make sure that the maximum towable
weight is not exceeded (given in the car
registration document) account should be taken of
the fully laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
Respect the speed limits specific to each country
for vehicles towing trailers. In any case, the top
speed must not exceed 100 km/h.
IMPORTANT To install a tow hook contact a
Lancia Dealership.
