2012 Lancia Thema headlamp

LIGHTS-ON REMINDER
If the headlights or parking lights are
on after the ignition is placed in the
OFF position, a chime will sound to
alert the driver when the driver's door
is opened.
FOG LIGHTSThe fog light switch is built
into the headlight switch.
To activate the fog lights,
turn the headlamp switch to
the park lamp or headlamp position.
Press the headlight switch once for
front fog lights, press the switch a
second time for front and rear fog
lights. Pressing the switch a third time
will deactivate the rear fog lights, and
a fourth time will deactivate the front
fog lights. Turning the headlight
switch off will also deactivate the fog
lights.
An indicator light in the instrument
cluster illuminates when the fog lights
are turned on.
NOTE:
The front fog lights will activate
automatically when turning on the
position lights or the low beam headlights if previously deacti-
vated by turning the headlight
switch off. The rear fog lights will
only turn on by operating the
switch as previously described.
MULTIFUNCTION LEVER
The multifunction lever controls the
operation of the turn signals, head-
light beam selection and passing
lights. The multifunction lever is lo-
cated on the left side of the steering
column.
TURN SIGNALS
Move the multifunction lever up or
down and the arrows on each side of
the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation of the front and rear
turn signal lights.
NOTE:
 If either light remains on and
does not flash, or there is a very
fast flash rate, check for a defec-
tive outside light bulb. If an in-
dicator fails to light when the
lever is moved, it would suggest
that the indicator bulb is defec-
tive.
 A “Turn Signal On” message will appear in the EVIC (for
versions/markets, where pro-
vided) and a continuous chime
will sound if the vehicle is driven
more than 1.6 km with either
turn signal on.
LANE CHANGE ASSIST
Tap the lever up or down once, with-
out moving beyond the detent, and
the turn signal (right or left) will flash
three times then automatically turn
off.
HIGH/LOW BEAM SWITCH
Push the multifunction lever away
from you to switch the headlights to
high beam. Pull the multifunction le-
ver toward you to switch the head-
lights back to low beam.

2. Anytime you store your vehicle, or
keep it out of service (i.e., vacation)
for two weeks or more, run the air
conditioning system at idle for about
five minutes in the fresh air and high
blower setting. This will ensure ad-
equate system lubrication to minimize
the possibility of compressor damage
when the system is started again.

High Intensity Discharge
Headlamps (HID) (for
versions/markets, where
provided)CAUTION!
Where possible, it is advisable to
have bulbs changed at a LANCIA
Dealership. Proper operation and
orientation of the external lights are
essential for driving safety and com-
plying with the law.
The headlamps are a type of high
voltage discharge tube. High voltage
can remain in the circuit even with the headlamp switch off and the key re-
moved.
Because of this, you should
not attempt to service a headlamp
bulb yourself. If a headlamp bulb
fails, take your vehicle to an au-
thorized dealer for service.
WARNING!
A transient high voltage occurs at
the bulb sockets of HID headlamps
when the headlamp switch is turned
ON. It may cause serious electrical
shock or electrocution if not serviced
properly. See your authorized dealer
for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with HID
headlamps, when the headlamps
are turned on, there is a blue hue
to the lights. This diminishes and
becomes more white after ap-
proximately 10 seconds, as the sys-
tem charges. Standard Low Beam Headlamp,
