STEERING WHEEL
LOCK (for versions/
markets, where provided)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
passive electronic steering wheel lock.
This lock prevents steering the vehicle
without the ignition key. The steering
wheel lock has six positions (one every
60 degrees). If the steering wheel is
moved to one of these six position with
the key in the off positions, the steer-
ing wheel will lock.
To Manually Lock The
Steering Wheel
With the engine running, rotate the
steering wheel one-half revolution,
turn off the engine and remove the
key. Turn the steering wheel slightly
in either direction until the lock en-
gages.
To Release The Steering
Wheel Lock
Cycle the ignition and start the en-
gine.
NOTE:
If you turned the wheel to the right
to engage the lock, you must turnthe wheel slightly to the right to
disengage it. If you turned the
wheel to the left to engage the lock,
turn the wheel slightly to the left to
disengage it.
SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer system
prevents unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion by disabling the engine. The sys-
tem does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, re-
gardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a Key Fob with Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter, a Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) and
a RF receiver to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only
Key Fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle.
After cycling the ignition to the ON/
RUN position, the Vehicle Security
Light will turn on for three seconds
for a bulb check. If the light remains
on after the bulb check, it indicates
that there is a problem with the elec-
tronics. In addition, if the light begins
to flash after the bulb check, it indi-
cates that someone used an invalid
Key Fob to start the engine. Either of
these conditions will result in the en-
gine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on
during normal vehicle operation (ve-
hicle running for longer than 10 sec-
onds), it indicates that there is a fault
in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer sys-
tem is not compatible with some
after-market remote starting sys-
tems. Use of these systems may re-
sult in vehicle starting problems and
loss of security protection.
All of the Key Fobs provided with
your new vehicle have been pro-
grammed to the vehicle electronics.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE:
Only Key Fobs that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle electronics
can be used to start and operate 15

Gas props support the liftgate in the
open position. However, because the
gas pressure drops with temperature,
it may be necessary to assist the props
when opening the liftgate in cold
weather.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Some of the most important safety
features in your vehicle are the re-
straint systems:
 Three-point lap and shoulder beltsfor all seating positions
 Advanced Front Air Bags for driver and front passenger
 Supplemental Active Head Re- straints (AHR) located on top of the
front seats (integrated into the head
restraint)
 Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat- able Curtains (SABIC) that span
the front, second, and third row
seating for the driver and passen-
gers seated next to a window
 Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB)
 An energy-absorbing steering col- umn and steering wheel  Knee bolsters/blockers for front
seat occupants (for versions/
markets, where provided)
 Front seat belts incorporate preten- sioners that may enhance occupant
protection by managing occupant
energy during an impact event
 All seat belt systems (except the driver’s) include Automatic Lock-
ing Retractors (ALRs), which lock
the seat belt webbing into position
by extending the belt all the way
out and then adjusting the belt to
the desired length to restrain a child
seat or secure a large item in a seat
If you will be carrying children too
small for adult-sized seat belts, the
seat belts or the ISOFIX feature also
can be used to hold infant and child
restraint systems. For more informa-
tion on ISOFIX, see ISOFIX — Child
Seat Anchorage System.
NOTE:
The Advanced Front Air Bags have
a multistage inflator design. This
allows the air bag to have different
rates of inflation based on several
factors, including the severity and
type of collision. Please pay close attention to the infor-
mation in this section. It tells you how
to use your restraint system properly,
to keep you and your passengers as
safe as possible.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passen-
gers can suffer much greater injuries
if you are not properly buckled up.
You can strike the interior of your
vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle.
Always be sure you and others in
your vehicle are buckled up prop-
erly.
Buckle up even though you are an
excellent driver, even on short trips.
Someone on the road may be a poor
driver and cause a collision that in-
cludes you. This can happen far away
from home or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts
save lives, and they can reduce the
seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen
when people are thrown from the ve-
hicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility
of ejection and the risk of injury
34

8 km/h, BeltAlert® will provide both
audio and visual notification.
The front passenger seat BeltAlert® is
not active when the front passenger
seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert® may be
triggered when an animal or heavy
object is on the front passenger seat or
when the seat is folded flat (for
versions/markets, where provided). It
is recommended that pets be re-
strained in the rear seat in pet har-
nesses or pet carriers that are secured
by seat belts, and cargo is properly
stowed.
BeltAlert® can be enabled or disabled
by your authorized dealer. LANCIA
does not recommend deactivating
BeltAlert®.
NOTE:
Although BeltAlert® has been de-
activated, the Seat Belt Reminder
Light will continue to illuminate
while the driver’s or front passen-
ger (for versions/markets, where
provided with BeltAlert®) seat belt
remains unfastened.SEAT BELTS AND
PREGNANT WOMEN
We recommend that pregnant women
use the seat belts throughout their
pregnancies. Keeping the mother safe
is the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap
part of the belt across the thighs and
as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not
come across the abdomen. That way
the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.
SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
— AIR BAGS
This vehicle has Advanced Front Air
Bags for both the driver and front
passenger as a supplement to the seat
belt restraint systems. The driver's
Advanced Front Air Bag is mounted
in the center of the steering wheel.
The passenger's Advanced Front Air
Bag is mounted in the instrument
panel, above the glove compartment.
The words SRS AIRBAG are em-
bossed on the air bag covers.
NOTE:
The Driver and Front Passenger
Advanced Front Air Bags are certi-
fied to regulations for Advanced
Air Bags.
The Advanced Front Air Bags have a
multistage inflator design. This allows
the air bag to have different rates of
inflation based on several factors, in-
cluding the severity and type of colli-
sion.

This vehicle may be equipped with a
driver and/or front passenger seat
belt buckle switch that detects
whether the driver or front passenger
seat belt is fastened. The seat belt
buckle switch may adjust the inflation
rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags.
This vehicle is equipped with Supple-
mental Side Air Bag Inflatable Cur-
tains (SABIC) to protect the driver,
front, and rear passengers sitting next
to a window. The SABIC air bags are
located above the side windows and
their covers are also labeled: SRS
AIRBAG.
This vehicle is equipped with Supple-
mental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
(SAB). The Supplemental Seat-
Mounted Side Air Bags are marked
with an air bag label sewn into the
outboard side of the front seats.
NOTE:
 Air Bag covers may not be obvi-ous in the interior trim, but they
will open during air bag deploy-
ment.  After any accident, the vehicle
should be taken to an autho-
rized dealer immediately.
AIR BAG SYSTEM
COMPONENTS
Your vehicle may be equipped with
the following air bag system compo-
nents:
 Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
 Air Bag Warning Light
 Steering Wheel and Column
 Instrument Panel
 Knee Impact Bolster (for versions/ markets, where provided)
 Driver Advanced Front Air Bag
 Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag
 Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB)
 Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat- able Curtains (SABIC)
 Front and Side Impact Sensors
 Front Seat Belt Pretensioners and Seat Belt Buckle Switch ADVANCED FRONT AIR
BAG FEATURES
The Advanced Front Air Bag system
has multistage driver and front pas-
senger air bags. This system provides
output appropriate to the severity and
type of collision as determined by the
Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC), which may receive informa-
tion from the front impact sensors.
The first stage inflator is triggered
immediately during an impact that
requires air bag deployment. This low
output is used in less severe collisions.
A higher energy output is used for
more severe collisions.
WARNING!
 No objects should be placed over
or near the air bag on the instru-
ment panel, because any such ob-
jects could cause harm if the ve-
hicle is in a collision severe
enough to cause the air bag to
inflate.

WARNING!
 Relying on the air bags alonecould lead to more severe injuries
in a collision. The air bags work
with your seat belt to restrain you
properly. In some collisions, the
air bags won't deploy at all. Al-
ways wear your seat belts even
though you have air bags.
 Being too close to the steering
wheel or instrument panel during
Advanced Front Air Bag deploy-
ment could cause serious injury,
including death. Air Bags need
room to inflate. Sit back, comfort-
ably extending your arms to reach
the steering wheel or instrument
panel.
 Side air bags also need room to
inflate. Do not lean against the
door or window. Sit upright in the
center of the seat. AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT
SENSORS AND CONTROLS
Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC)
The
ORC is part of a regulated safety
system required for this vehicle.
The ORC determines if deployment of
the front and/or side air bags in a
frontal or side collision is required.
Based on the impact sensor's signals,
a central electronic ORC deploys the
Advanced Front Air Bags, SABIC air
bags, Supplemental Seat-Mounted
Side Air Bags, and front seat belt pre-
tensioners, as required, depending on
the severity and type of impact.
Advanced Front Air Bags are designed
to provide additional protection by
supplementing the seat belts in cer-
tain frontal collisions depending on
the severity and type of collision. Ad-
vanced Front Air Bags are not ex-
pected to reduce the risk of injury in
rear, side, or rollover collisions.
The Advanced Front Air Bags will not
deploy in all frontal collisions, includ-
ing some that may produce substan-
tial vehicle damage — for example, some pole collisions, truck under-
rides, and angle offset collisions. On
the other hand, depending on the type
and location of impact, Advanced
Front Air Bags may deploy in crashes
with little vehicle front-end damage
but that produce a severe initial decel-
eration.
The side air bags will not deploy in all
side collisions. Side air bag deploy-
ment will depend on the severity and
type of collision.
Because air bag sensors measure ve-
hicle deceleration over time, vehicle
speed and damage by themselves are
not good indicators of whether or not
an air bag should have deployed.
Seat belts are necessary for your pro-
tection in all collisions, and also are
needed to help keep you in position,
away from an inflating air bag.
The ORC monitors the readiness of
the electronic parts of the air bag sys-
tem whenever the ignition switch is in
the START or ON/RUN position. If
the key is in the OFF position, in the
ACC position, or not in the ignition,
48

the air bag system is not on and the air
bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the air
bags even if the battery loses power or
it becomes disconnected prior to de-
ployment.Also, the ORC turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light in
the instrument panel for
approximately four to eight
seconds for a self-check when the ig-
nition is first turned on. After the self-
check, the Air Bag Warning Light will
turn off. If the ORC detects a mal-
function in any part of the system, it
turns on the Air Bag Warning Light,
either momentarily or continuously. A
single chime will sound if the light
comes on again after initial startup.
It also includes diagnostics that will
illuminate the instrument cluster Air
Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the air bag
system. The diagnostics also record
the nature of the malfunction.
WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light
in your instrument panel could
mean you won't have the air bags to
protect you in a collision. If the light
does not come on as a bulb check
when the ignition is first turned on,
stays on after you start the vehicle,
or if it comes on as you drive, have
an authorized dealer service the air
bag system immediately.
Driver And Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units
The Driver and Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units are lo-
cated in the center of the steering
wheel and on the right side of the
instrument panel. When the ORC de-
tects a collision requiring the Ad-
vanced Front Air Bags, it signals the
inflator units. A large quantity of non-
toxic gas is generated to inflate the
Advanced Front Air Bags. Different
air bag inflation rates are possible,
based on the collision type and sever-
ity. The steering wheel hub trim cover
and the upper right side of the instru-
ment panel separate and fold out of the way as the air bags inflate to their
full size. The air bags fully inflate in
about 50 to 70 milliseconds. This is
about half of the time it takes to blink
your eyes. The air bags then quickly
deflate while helping to restrain the
driver and front passenger.
The Advanced Front Air Bag gas is
vented through the vent holes in the
sides of the air bag. In this way, the air
bags do not interfere with your con-
trol of the vehicle.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bag (SAB) Inflator Units
The Supplemental Seat-Mounted
Side Air Bags (SAB) are designed to
activate only in certain side collisions.
The ORC determines if a side collision
requires the side air bags to inflate,
based on several factors, including the
severity and type of collision.
Based on several factors, including
the severity and type of collision, the
side air bag inflator on the crash side
of the vehicle may be triggered, re-
leasing a quantity of non-toxic gas.
The inflating SAB exits through the
seat seam into the space between the
49
