74KNOWING YOUR CAR
On the roof light, some bulbs light the car interior when
the main beam headlamps or dipped headlamps are on.
IMPORTANT The roof light in fig. 32, for some versions,
may also be in a rear central position (electric sun roof
version).
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make sure
that both switches are in the middle position; when the
doors are closed, the lights switch off preventing a pos-
sible battery discharging. In any case, if the switch is left
in on position, the roof light switches off automatically
15 minutes after the engine switching off.
Courtesy light timing
To make getting in and out the vehicle easier, especially
at nighttime or in poorly lit areas, two timing logics are
available.
Timing while getting into the vehicle
The roof lights switch on according to the following
modes:
❍for around 10 seconds when the front doors are un-
locked;
❍for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
The timed period is interrupted when the ignition is
turned to “MAR”.Timing while getting out of the vehicle
After removing the key from the ignition, the courtesy
lights switch on according to the following modes:
❍within 2 minutes of the engine being switched off for
a period of about 10 seconds;
❍when one of the side doors is opened for a period
of about 3 minutes;
❍when one of the doors is closed for a period of about
10 seconds;
❍if the fuel cut off switch operates, they remain on for
about 15 minutes, then they switch off automatically.
Door locking switches the lights off immediately (unless
the fuel cut off switch is operating).

206IN AN EMERGENCY
After tyre replacement
❍Stow the space saver wheel D-fig. 10 in the space pro-
vided in the luggage compartment;
❍fit the partially open jack in its box forcing it lightly
to prevent it from vibrating when travelling;
❍put the tools back into place in the container;
❍stow the container, complete with tools, in the spare
wheel and tighten the locking device B-fig. 10;
❍reposition the boot mat correctly.
IMPORTANT Do not use inner tubes with tubeless tyres.
Check the inflation pressure of the tyres and the space-
saving wheel periodically.CHANGING A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❍Before changing a bulb, check the contacts for rust-
ing;
❍burnt-out bulbs must be replaced by others of the
same type and wattage;
❍always check the alignment of the beam after chang-
ing a headlight bulb;
❍when a light is not working, check that the corre-
sponding fuse is intact before changing a bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the paragraph “Replacing
fuses” in this chapter.
Modifications or repairs to the electric sys-
tem that are not carried out properly or do
not take the system technical specifications
into account can cause malfunctions leading to the
risk of fire.
Various fastening bolts and space-saver
wheels, specific and differing in structural
characteristics, are used depending on the
wheel rim type (alloy or steel). Fastening bolts for
alloy rims can be identified by the presence of a per-
manent washer and a hollow side on the bolt head.
Therefore, you will need to go to a Lancia Dealer-
ship to get the correct type of fastening bolts and
space saver wheel if you change the type of wheels
fitted (alloy rims instead of steel rims, or vice
versa). Keep the bolts fitted as standard in case of
re-use of the wheels originally mounted on the car.

Halogen bulbs contain gas under pressure;
if they break, glass fragments may be dis-
persed.IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface might be
slightly misted: this should not be considered irregular
rather a natural phenomenon due to low temperature and
the air humidity level. Misting will disappear as soon as
the headlights are turned on. The presence of drops in-
side the headlights indicates infiltration of water. Contact
a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold or damp or after
heavy rain or after washing, the surface of headlights or
rear lights, may steam up and/or form drops of conden-
sation on the inside. This is a natural phenomenon due
to the difference in temperature and humidity between the
inside and the outside of the glass which does not indicate
a fault and does not compromise the normal operation of
lighting devices. The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from the centre of the dif-
fuser, extending progressively towards the edges.
When handling halogen bulbs, only touch the
metal part. If the transparent bulb is touched
with the fingers, its lighting intensity is re-
duced and life of the bulb may be compromised. In
the event of accidental contact, wipe the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and leave it to dry.
Where possible, it is advisable to have bulbs
changed at a Lancia Dealership. Proper op-
eration and orientation of the external lights
are essential for driving safety and complying
with the law.
