SEATS
WARNING
All adjustments must be made with
the car stationary.
FRONT SEATS
Lengthwise adjustment
Lift the lever A fig. 17 and push the seat forwards
or backwards: in driving position your arms
should rest on the rim of the steering wheel.
WARNING
Once you have released the
adjustment lever, always check that
the seat is locked on the guides by trying to
move it back and forth. If the seat is not
locked into place, it may unexpectedly slide
and cause the driver to lose control of the
car.
Height adjustment

Move lever B fig. 18 upwards or downwards to
achieve the required height.
IMPORTANT Carry out the adjustment while
sitting on the seat involved (driver side or

HEAD RESTRAINTSFRONT
They are height-adjustable: to adjust them,
operate as follows.
Upwards adjustment:raise the head restraint
until it clicks into place.
Downwards adjustment:press button A fig. 22
and lower the head restraint.
"Anti-Whiplash" Device
The head restraints are equipped with an
“Anti-Whiplash” device, which reduces the
distance between head and head restraint in the
event of a rear impact, thus mitigating the
"whiplash" effect.The head restraint may move when the backrest is
pressed by the occupant's torso or hand: this
behaviour is caused by the system and should not
be considered a malfunction.
WARNING
All adjustments must be made with
the car stationary. Head restraints
must be adjusted so that the head, rather
than the neck, rests on them. Only when they
are adjusted in this manner can they serve
their intended purpose.
WARNING
To make the best use of the head
restraint's protective action, adjust
the backrest so that you are sitting upright
and keep your head as close as possible
to the head restraint.
REAR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Two height-adjustable head restraints are
provided for the rear seats. On some versions a
head restraint is also provided for the central seat.
Upwards adjustment:raise the head restraint
until it clicks into place.

All restraint devices must bear the type-approval
data along with the control mark on a label firmly
secured to the child seat which must never be
removed. When over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems, children are
considered as adults and have to wear the
standard seat belts. Lineaccessori Lancia includes
child seats for each weight group. These devices
are recommended having been specifically
designed for Lancia cars.
WARNING
Do not arrange cradle child seats
facing backwards if the front air bag
on the passenger's side is enabled.
Deployment of the air bag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the baby
regardless of the severity of the collision. It
is advisable to always carry children in a
child seat on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a collision.
WARNING
Should it be absolutely necessary to
carry a child on the front seat in a
backwards-facing craddle seat, the
passenger's front and side air bags must be
deactivated through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by checking
the warning light on the instrument panel.
The passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to avoid
the child seat from coming into contact with
the dashboard.

GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the car seat
belts directly fig. 103.
The child seat is now needed only to position the
child correctly with respect to the belts so that the
diagonal section crosses the child's chest and
never the neck, and the lower part is snug on the
pelvis not the abdomen.GROUP 3
For children from 22 kg up to 36 kg suitable
risers are available to position the seat belt
correctly.
Thefig. 104 shows an example of correct child seat
positioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear seat belts
like adults.
WARNING
The figures are only examples for
fitting purposes. Install the car seat
according to the instructions, which are
mandatorily included with this type of
restraint system.
