important for the comfort and safety of not only
the driver but all other road users. This is also
covered by a specific rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly aimed to
guarantee the best visibility conditions for all
drivers while travelling with headlights on.
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
headlights properly adjusted.
Check beam alignment every time the load or its
distribution changes.
IMPORTANT When the gas discharge (Xenon)
headlamps (for versions/markets, where provided)
are switched on, normally parabolas and light
