2012 Lancia Flavia battery

POWER CONVERTIBLE
TOP USAGE PRECAUTIONS
NOTE:
 The convertible top will not op-erate unless the vehicle is sta-
tionary, the cargo shield is posi-
tioned correctly, and the trunk
lid is closed and latched. In ad-
dition, the system is prohibited
from opening when the ambient
temperature is below ­18°C.
 The top system is prohibited from closing when the ambient
temperature is below ­40°C.
 Do not attempt to lower the top when frost, ice, or snow may be
present, this could cause dam-
age or prevent the top from stow-
ing completely.
 The Power Top Control Module (PTCM) monitors and controls
lowering and raising of the top.
A series of micro-switches verify
that operations are complete be-
fore allowing the next stage of
lowering or raising operation.  Opening and closing the top
consecutively without the engine
running may run the battery
down.
 If a fluttering noise is heard from the rear seat belts while driving
with the top down, safely bring
the vehicle to a stop and buckle
the rear seat belts over the empty
seats. This will keep tension on
the seat belts and remove the
fluttering condition.
CAUTION!
 Correctly position the cargo shieldin the trunk before stowing the
top. Doing so closes a switch that
allows top operation (stowing) to
proceed. If the switch is not
closed, a warning message dis-
plays in the instrument cluster to
notify the driver.
 Always place items carefully into
the trunk.
 Do not push items too far into the
trunk, particularly when the top is
retracted into its stowage area in
the trunk.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
 Do not use the area on top of the
tonneau cover for storage.
Failure to follow these cautions can
cause damage to the convertible top
components, trunk contents, cargo
shield, and the vehicle interior.CAUTION!
Before operating the power top:
 Always check on top of the ton-
neau cover area to be sure that it is
clear of debris or other items.
 Make sure the ambient tempera-
ture is above ­18°C if you want to
open the top.
 Make sure the ambient tempera-
ture is above ­40°C if you want to
close to the top.
 Never attempt to lower a frozen
convertible top. Wait until the top
is thawed before lowering it into
the stowage compartment. Low-
ering a cloth top at temperatures
below 0°C should be avoided.

If so equipped.
For vehicles not equipped with the EVIC.
The PTCM will lockout the power convertible top system if the vehicle charging system is malfunctioning, or the
battery is run down, or the hydraulic pump is overheating.
 If the vehicle charging system is malfunctioning, see your authorized dealer for service.
 If the battery is run down, have it recharged and tested at your authorized dealer.
 Hydraulic pump overheating can occur if you lower and raise the top consecutively (usually more than six or seven
times depending upon the ambient temperature). Wait at least five minutes before operating the power top again.
NOTE: If lockout occurs due to hydraulic pump overheating, the system will allow you to raise the top without waiting
five minutes. However, do so only if necessary.

Redial
 Press the
button to begin.
 After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say “Redial”.
 The Uconnect™ Phone will call the last number that was dialed from
your mobile phone.
NOTE:
This may not be the last number
dialed from the Uconnect™
Phone.
Call Continuation
Call continuation is the progression of
a phone call on the Uconnect™ Phone
after the vehicle ignition key has been
switched to OFF. Call continuation
functionality available on the vehicle
can be any one of three types:
 After the ignition key is switched to OFF, a call can continue on the
Uconnect™ Phone either until the
call ends, or until a vehicle specific
time expires, or until the vehicle
battery condition dictates cessation
of the call on the Uconnect™ Phone
and transfer of the call to the mo-
bile phone.  After the ignition key is switched to
OFF, a call can continue on the
Uconnect™ Phone for a certain du-
ration, after which the call is auto-
matically transferred from the
Uconnect™ Phone to the mobile
phone.
 An active call is automatically transferred to the mobile phone af-
ter the ignition key is switched to
OFF.
UCONNECT™ PHONE
FEATURES
Language Selection
To change the language that the
Uconnect™ Phone is using:
 Press the
button to begin.
 After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say the name of the
language you wish to switch to
(English, Dutch, French, German,
Italian, or Spanish, if so equipped).
 Continue to follow the system prompts to complete language se-
lection. After selecting one of the languages,
all prompts and voice commands will
be in that language.
NOTE:
After every Uconnect™ Phone lan-
guage change operation, only the
language-specific 32-name phone-
book is usable. The paired phone
name is not language-specific and
is usable across all languages.For command translations and alter-
nate commands in supported lan-
guages, refer to “Commands” in
“Voice Command System Operation”.

used when you wish to skip part of a
prompt and issue your voice com-
mand immediately. For example, if a
prompt is asking “Would you like to
pair a phone, clear a…,” you could
press the
button and say, “Pair
a Phone” to select that option without
having to listen to the rest of the voice
prompt.
Turning Confirmation Prompts

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
 Only devices designed for use inthis type of outlet should be in-
serted into any 12 Volt outlet.
 Do not touch with wet hands.
 Close the lid when not in use and
while driving the vehicle.
 If this outlet is mishandled, it may
cause an electric shock and fail-
ure.CAUTION!
 Many accessories that can beplugged in draw power from the
vehicle's battery, even when not in
use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.).
Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the en-
gine from starting.
 Accessories that draw higher
power (i.e., coolers, vacuum
cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade
the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.

CAUTION!(Continued)
 After the use of high power draw
accessories, or long periods of the
vehicle not being started (with ac-
cessories still plugged in), the ve-
hicle must be driven a sufficient
length of time to allow the genera-
tor to recharge the vehicle'sbat-
tery.
