approval requirements.

"Smart washing" function
Pull the lever towards the steering wheel (unstable
position) to activate the windscreen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half a
second, with just one movement it is possible to
operate the washer jet and the wiper at the same
time.
The wiper stops working three strokes after the
stalk is released.
A further stroke after approximately six seconds
completes the wiping cycle.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is located behind the interior rear view
mirror, in contact with the windscreen fig. 36 and
can detect the presence of rain and, consequently,
manage the cleaning of the windscreen in
accordance with the amount of water on the
screen.
The sensor has an adjustment range that varies
progressively from wiper still (no stroke) when the
windscreen is dry, to wiper at 2
nd
continuous
speed (fast continuous operation) with intense
rain.Activation
The sensor is activated when the ring nut A fig. 35
is turned to "automatic" position ("AUTO"
control): the windscreen wiper stroke frequency is
thus adjusted in accordance with the amount of
water on the windscreen.
The activation of the sensor is signalled by a
"stroke" to show that the command has been
acquired.
The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be adjusted
through the Set Up menu (see paragraph "Menu
Items" in this section).
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area
clean.
If the windscreen washer is used with the rain
sensor activated, the normal washing cycle is
performed, after which the rain sensor resumes its
normal automatic operation.

S.B.R. SYSTEM (Seat Belt Reminder)This system consists of a device which, in
conjunction with the
warning light flashing on
the instrument panel and an intermittent acoustic
signal, warns the driver and front passenger if
their seat belts have not been fastened.
here is also a panel
located above the rear-view
mirror fig. 96 (4-seater versions) or fig. 97
(5-seater versions), which warns the front and
back seat passengers via acoustic and visual
signals if their seat belts have not been fastened.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Lancia
Dealership. The SBR system can only be
reactivated via the display Setup Menu (see
“Knowing your car” section).
The warning lights may be red or green and
operate as follows:
4-seater versions
❒1 = front left seat (driver status for left-hand
drive versions);
❒2 = rear left seat (passenger);
❒3 = rear right seat (passenger);
❒4 = front right seat (passenger status for
left-hand drive versions).

T

CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-ups will
prevent the engine from reaching optimal running
temperature.
Consequently, both consumption (from +15 to
+30% on urban cycle ) and emissions will
increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high fuel consumption is caused by heavy
traffic, for instance when travelling in a queue
with frequent use of low gears or in large towns
with many traffic lights. Winding mountain roads
and rough road surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged stops (e.g. level crossings) the
engine should be switched off.
TOWING TRAILERSIMPORTANT NOTES
For towing caravans or trailers the car must be
fitted with a type-approved tow hook and an
adequate electrical system. Installation must be
carried out by a specialist.
Install any specific and/or additional rear view
mirrors as specified by the Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer, steep hills
are harder to climb, braking distances increase
and overtaking takes longer depending on the
overall weight of the trail.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather
than constantly using the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the car's tow hook will
reduce the load capacity of the car by the same
amount. To make sure that the maximum towable
weight is not exceeded (given in the car
registration document) account should be taken of
the fully laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
Respect the speed limits specific to each country
for vehicles towing trailers. In any case, the top
speed must not exceed 100 km/h.
Any electric brake or other device (winch etc.)
should be powered directly by the battery through
a cable with a cross-section of no less than 2.5
mm
2.
