DASHBOARD
AND
CONTROLS
The car can be driven using the me-
chanical steering in case of failure to
the electric power steering system.
Take the car to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT The steering may be-
fore stiffer when parking requiring a
lot of steering. This is normal and
caused by the electric control motor
overheating system. No repairs are
needed. The power steering system
will start working properly again the
next time the car is used. PARKING SENSORS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper and their function is to in-
form the driver, through an intermit-
tent buzzer, about the presence of ob-
stacles behind the car.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically acti-
vated when the reverse gear is en-
gaged. As the distance from the ob-
stacle behind the car decreases, the
acoustic alarm becomes more fre-
quent.
fig. 114L0D0419m
Under no circumstances
should aftermarket opera-
tions involving steering system or
steering column modifications (e.g.:
installation of anti-theft device) be
carried out that could badly affect
performance and safety. This also
causes the warranty to become null
and void and results in vehicle non-
compliance with type-approval re-
quirements.
WARNING
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Electric power steering failure is indi-
cated by the turning on of warning
light
gon the instrument panel to-
gether with the dedicated message on
the multifunctional display (where
provided), (see section “Warning
lights and messages”).
Before starting any main-
tenance operation, stop the
engine and remove the key from the
ignition switch to operate the steer-
ing lock, particularly when the car
is lifted off the ground. If this is
not possible (i.e. if the key must be
kept in the MAR position or the en-
gine must be kept running), remove
the main electric power steering
system fuse.

Remove the protection to reach the
cord. For diesel engines, use
diesel fuel for motor vehi-
cles compliant with EN590
European specifications
only. The use of other products or
mixtures may damage the engine
beyond repair and consequently
cause lapse of warranty in relation
to the damage caused. If you acci-
dentally introduce other types of fuel
in the tank, do not start the engine
and empty the tank. If the engine has
run also for a very short time, you
will need to have the entire fuel feed
system emptied in addition to the
tank.

S.B.R. system
The car is fitted with a Seat Belt Re-
minder system (S.B.R.), consisting of
a buzzer and a flashing warning light
warns the driver that the seat belt
must be fastened.
The buzzer can be deactivated (until
the next engine stop) as follows:
❒fasten the driver’s seat belt;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR;
❒wait for over 20 seconds and then
release one of the seat belts.
For permanent deactivation, contact
a Lancia Dealership.
The S.B.R. can only be reactivated us-
ing the setup menu (see the “Warning
lights and messages” chapter, “Seat
belt reminder” paragraph).ADJUSTING THE FRONT SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Always adjust the seat belt height to
the passenger’s body: this precaution
may considerably reduce the risk of
injury in the event of a collision.
Correct regulation is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half
way between the shoulder and the
neck.
To adjust, move the grip A-fig. 4of
the locking mechanism either up or
down and at the same time move the
ringBto the most suitable of the al-
lowed positions.
Remember that in the
event of a violent collision,
back seat passengers not wearing
seat belts also represent a serious
danger for the front seat passen-
gers.
WARNING
fig. 4L0D0128m
The height of the seat belts
must be adjusted with the
car at a standstill.
WARNING
After adjustment, always
check that the cursor to
which the ring is fastened is locked
in one of the set positions. Release
the grip and push downwards to
enable the locking device to click if
the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.

STARTING THE
ENGINE
The car is provided with an electronic
engine lock device: refer to “The Lan-
cia CODE system” paragraph in
“Dashboard and controls” if you can-
not start the engine. The engine may
be noisier during the first seconds of
operation, particularly after a long pe-
riod of inactivity. This is characteris-
tic of hydraulic tappets, the timing
system chosen for petrol engine ver-
sions to reduce the number of servic-
ing interventions and does effects nei-
ther functionality nor reliability.
STARTING PROCEDURE FOR
PETROL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒apply the handbrake;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒press the clutch pedal all the way
down without touching the accel-
erator;
❒turn the ignition key to AV Vand
let it go the moment the engine
starts.If the engine does not start at the first
attempt, return the ignition key to
STOPbefore repeating the attempt to
start the engine. If with the key at
MARthe instrument panel warning
lightYstays on with warning lightU, turn the key back to STOPand
then back to MAR; if the warning
light stays on, try with the other keys
provided.
It is dangerous to run the
engine in closed environ-
ments. The engine consumes oxy-
gen and engine exhaust contains
carbon dioxide, carbon oxide and
other toxic gasses.
WARNING
It is advisable not to de-
mand maximum perfor-
mance from your car (e.g.
excessive accelerations,
long distances at top rpm, excessive
intense braking, etc.) as soon as the
engine is started.
Do not leave the key in the
ignition switch in the MAR
position with the engine off
to avoid unnecessary con-
sumption of electricity which could
drain the battery.
Contact a Lancia Dealership if you
still cannot start the engine.
IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition
key to MARwhen the engine is off.
PROCEDURE FOR
MULTIJET VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒apply the handbrake;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR;

❒will light up on the instrument
panel; wait for warning lights
Yand
mto go out. This will hap-
pen faster when the engine is
warm;
❒press the clutch pedal all the way
down without touching the accel-
erator;
❒turn the ignition key to AV Vas
soon as the warning light
mturns
off. Waiting too long will waste the
work done by the glow plugs. Re-
lease the key as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT With the engine cold,
the accelerator must be entirely re-
leased when turning the ignition key
to position AV V.
If the engine does not start at the first
attempt, return the ignition key to
STOP before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is at MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
Yremains lit, turn the key to STOP
and then back to MAR; if the warn-
ing lights remain on, try with the
other keys provided with the car.
Contact a Lancia Dealership if you
still cannot start the engine.HOW TO WARM UP THE
ENGINE AFTER IT HAS JUST
STARTED (petrol and Multijet
engines)
Proceed as follows:
❒drive off slowly, letting the engine
turn at medium speed. Accelerate
smoothly;
❒do not demand maximum perfor-
mance for the first few kilometres.
Wait until the engine coolant gauge
starts moving.Warning light
mwill
blink for 60 seconds after
starting or during pro-
longed cranking to indicate
a fault to the glow plug heating sys-
tem. Use the car normally if the en-
gine starts and go to a Lancia Deal-
ership as soon as possible.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to STOPwhile the en-
gine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive,
you should allow the engine to “catch
its breath” before turning it off by let-
ting it idle to allow the temperature in
the engine compartment to fall.
Never jump start the engine
by pushing, towing or dri-
ving downhill. This could
cause a flow of fuel into the
catalytic converter and damage it
beyond repair.
A quick burst on the accel-
erator before turning off the
engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose, it wastes
fuel and is damaging especially to
turbocharged engines.
IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition
key to MARwhen the engine is off.

PARKING THE
VEHICLE
Proceed as follows:
❒Stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
❒Engage a gear (on a slope, engage
first gear if the vehicle is faced up-
hill or reverse if it is faced down-
hill) and leave the wheels steered.
If the car is parked on a steep slope,
it is further advisable to block the
wheels with a wedge or stone. Avoid
parking for a long time with one
wheel on the pavement or steered
against the curb. Do not leave the key
in the ignition switch at MARto pre-
vent draining the battery. Always re-
move the key when you leave the car.
HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located be-
tween the two front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the
handbrake.
Four or five notches are normally suf-
ficient to lock the car on flat terrain,
while nine or ten may be necessary on
a steep slope with the car loaded. IMPORTANT If this is not the case,
contact Lancia Dealership to have the
handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled
up and the ignition key is at MAR, the
instrument panel warning light
xwill turn on.
Proceed as follows to release the
handbrake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and
press release button A-fig. 1;
❒hold the button Apressed and
lower the lever; the warning light
xon the instrument panel will go
out.
Press the brake pedal when carrying
out this operation to prevent the car
from moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT if the handbrake lever
tends to reach end of stroke (groove
on the central tunnel), go to a Lancia
dealership to have the handbrake ad-
justed correctly.
