TURNING THE DEVICE OFF
Turn ring A-fig. 73toOFFor the ig-
nition key to STOP. The device is au-
tomatically turned off in one of the
following cases:
❒when the brake pedal or clutch is
pressed. REDUCING THE STORED
SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
❒by turning the device off and then
storing a new speed;
or
❒by moving the stalk downwards
(
–) until reaching the new speed
which will be stored automatically.
Each operation of the stalk will cor-
respond to a slight reduction in speed
(about 1 km/h), while keeping the
stalk downwards will correspond to a
continuous speed reduction. RESTORING THE STORED
SPEED
If the device has been disengaged, for
example by pressing the brake or
clutch pedal, the memorized speed
can be reset as follows:
❒accelerate gradually until reaching
a speed approaching the stored
speed;
❒engage the gear selected when the
speed was stored (4th or 5th gear);
❒press RES B.
INCREASING THE STORED
SPEED
The stored speed can be increased
in two ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and
then storing the new speed
reached;
or
❒by moving the stalk upwards (
+).
Each operation of the stalk will cor-
respond to a slight increase in speed
(about 1 km/h), while keeping the
stalk upwards will correspond to a
continuous speed increase.
When travelling with the
device on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.
WARNING
If the device is faulty, turn
ring A to OFF, check the
fuse and contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship.

AND

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.

MESSAGES
GENERIC INDICATION
(amber)
The warning light turns on
in the following circum-
stances.
Exterior lights failure
The warning light will come on (some
versions only) when a fault to one of
the following lights is detected:
– side/taillights
– brake lights (excluding third brake
light)
– rear fog lights
– direction indicators
– number plate lights.
The fault may be caused by: one or
more burnt lamps, a blow protection
fuse or interruption of the electrical
connection.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
Obstructed particulate trap
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light turns on when the
diesel particulate trap is clogged and
the driving conditions do not enable
to activate automatically the regener-
ation procedure.
è
To allow the regeneration procedure,
keep the car running until the warn-
ing light turns off.
The display will show a dedicated
message.
Engine oil pressure sensor
failure
The warning light turns on when fail-
ure is detected in parking sensors. Go
to a Lancia Dealership as soon as pos-
sible.
Rain/dusk sensor failure
The warning light comes on when a
dusk/rain sensor failure is detected.
Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.
The display will show a dedicated
message.
Fuel cut-off switch tripped
The warning light comes on when the
fuel cut-off switch trips.
The display will show a dedicated
message. LANCIA CODE
PROTECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR, the
warning light flashes once and then
goes off.
If with the ignition key at MAR, the
warning light stays on, this indicates
a possible failure (see “Lancia Code
system” in section “Dashboard and
controls”).
IMPORTANT The turning on at the
same time of the Uand
Ywarning
lights indicates a failure of the Lancia
CODE system.
If with the engine running the warn-
ing light
Yflashes, this means that
the car is not protected by the engine
immobilizer device (see “Lancia Code
system” in section “Dashboard and
controls”).
Contact Lancia Dealership to have all
the key stored.

TO CHANGE A
BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒When a bulb is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is in-
tact before replacing it: refer to the
“If a fuse blows” paragraph in this
chapter for fuse location.
❒before changing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
❒burnt bulbs must be replaced by
others of the same type and power;
❒always check the height of the
headlight beam after changing a
bulb.
Halogen lamps must be
handled holding the metal-
lic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb
with your fingers may reduce the in-
tensity of the emitted light and even
compromise duration of the lamp it-
self.

Modifications or repairs to
the fuel feed system that
are not carried out properly or do
not take the system’s technical
specifications into account can
cause malfunctions leading to the
risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas which, if
broken, may cause small frag-
ments of glass to be projected out-
wards.
WARNING
BULB TYPES fig. 16
Various types of bulbs are fitted to
your car:
A All glass bulb: clipped into place.
Pull to extract.
B Bayonet bulbs: to remove this type
of bulb from its holder, press the
bulb and turn it anticlockwise.
C Cylindrical bulbs: release from the
contacts to extract.
D-E Halogen bulbs: release the fas-
tening clip from the correspond-
ing seat to remove the lamp.
L0D0178mfig. 16
The taillights and the
third brake light fit LEDs.
Contact a Lancia Dealership in
case of faults.
WARNING
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after hard rain or after
washing, the area of headlamps or rear
lights, may steam up and/or form drops
of condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the differ-
ence in temperature and humidity be-
tween 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 turning the lights
on, starting from the centre of the dif-
fuser, extending progressively towards
the edges.

REPLACING FUSES
INTRODUCTION fig. 35
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action
(i.e. it cuts off) mainly due to a fault
or improper action on the system.
Check the efficiency of the corre-
sponding fuse when a device does not
work: the conducting element Amust
not be interrupted. If it is, replace the
blown fuse with another with the
same amperage (same colour).
B: intact fuse
C: fuse with damaged filament.
Use the tongs Din the fusebox on the
dashboard to change a fuse.
fig. 35L0D0198m
If a fuse blows again, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
Never replace a fuse with
another of higher amper-
age: FIRE RISK.
If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-
FUSE, MAXI-FUSE) blows, con-
tact your Lancia Dealership
WARNING
Remove the key from the
ignition switch and switch
off all loads before replacing a
fuse.
WARNING
If a general protection fuse
for safety systems (air bag
system, braking system), power
unit systems (engine system, trans-
mission system) or steering system
is triggered, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
