2013 Lancia Thema lights

Each light can be turned on by press-
ing a switch on either side of the con-
sole. These switches are backlit for
night time visibility. To turn the lights
off, press the switch a second time.
The lights will also turn on when the
UNLOCK button on the Remote Key-
less Entry (RKE) is pressed.AMBIENT LIGHT
The overhead console is equipped
with an ambient light feature. This
light casts illumination for improved
visibility of the floor center console
and PRNDL area.
INTERIOR LIGHTS
The interior lights come on when a
door is opened.
To protect the battery, the interior
lights will turn off automatically
10 minutes after the ignition switch
is moved to the LOCK position. This
will occur if the interior lights were
switched on manually or are on be-
cause a door is open. This includes the
glove box light, but not the trunk light.
To restore interior light operation,
either turn the ignition switch ON or
cycle the light switch.
Dimmer Controls
The dimmer control is part of the
headlight switch and is located on the
left side of the instrument panel.
With the parking lights or headlights
on, rotating the left dimmer control
upward will increase the brightness of
the instrument panel lights and
lighted cupholders.

Ambient Light Control
Rotate the right dimmer control up-
ward or downward to increase or de-
crease the brightness of the door
handle lights and ambient light lo-
cated in the overhead console.
Dome Light Position

pletely upward to the second detent to
turn on the interior lights. The inte-
rior lights will remain on when the
dimmer control is in this position.
Interior Light Defeat (OFF)

extreme bottom OFF position. The
interior lights will remain off when
the doors are open.Parade Mode (Daytime Brightness
Feature)
Rotate the left dimmer control upward
to the first detent. This feature bright-
ens all text displays such as the odom-
eter, EVIC (for versions/markets,
where provided), and radio when the
parking lights or headlights are on.WINDSHIELD WIPERS
AND WASHERS
The multifunction lever operates the
windshield wipers and washer when
the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN
or ACC position. The multifunction
lever is located on the left side of the
steering column.
Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to the first detent, past the inter-
mittent settings for low-speed wiper
operation, or to the second detent past
the intermittent settings for high-
speed wiper operation.
CAUTION!
 Turn the windshield wipers off
when driving through an auto-
matic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if
the wiper control is left in any
position other than off.
 In cold weather, always turn off the wiper switch and allow the
wipers to return to the “Park”
position before turning off the
engine. If the wiper switch is left
on and the wipers freeze to the
windshield, damage to the wiper
motor may occur when the ve-
hicle is restarted.

The sensitivity of the system can be
adjusted with the multifunction lever.
Wiper delay position 1 is the least sen-
sitive, and wiper delay position 4 is the
most sensitive. Setting 3 should be used
for normal rain conditions. Settings 1
and 2 can be used if the driver desires
less wiper sensitivity. Settings 4 can be
used if the driver desires more sensitiv-
ity. The rain sense wipers will auto-
matically change between an intermit-
tent wipe, slow wipe and a fast wipe
depending on the amount of moisture
that is sensed on the windshield. Place
the wiper switch in the OFF position
when not using the system.The Rain Sensing feature can be
turned on and off using the Uconnect
Touch™ System, refer to “Uconnect
Touch™ Settings” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will not
operate when the wiper speed is
in the low or high position.
 The Rain Sensing feature maynot function properly when ice
or dried salt water is present on
the windshield.
 The use of products containing wax or silicone may reduce rain
sensor performance.
The Rain Sensing system has protec-
tive features for the wiper blades and
arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
 Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
— The Rain Sensing feature will
not operate when the ignition is
placed in the RUN position, the ve-
hicle is stationary and the outside
temperature is below 0°C, unless
the wiper control on the multifunc-
tion lever is moved, the vehicle
speed becomes greater than 0 km/h
or the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
 Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain
Sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is placed in the
RUN position, the transmission
shift lever is in the NEUTRAL po-
sition and the vehicle speed is less than 8 km/h, unless the wiper con-
trol on the multifunction lever is
moved or the shift lever is moved
out of the NEUTRAL position.
HEADLIGHT WASHERS
The multifunction lever operates the
headlight washers when the ignition
switch is in the ON position and the
headlights are turned on. The multi-
function lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
To use the headlight washers, push
the multifunction lever inward (to-
ward the steering column) to the sec-
ond detent and release it. The head-
light washers will spray a timed high-
pressure spray of washer fluid onto
each headlight lens. In addition, the
windshield washers will spray the
windshield and the windshield wipers
will cycle.
NOTE: After turning the ignition
switch and headlights ON, the
headlight washers will operate on
the first spray of the windshield
washer and then every eleventh
spray after that.

Vehicle Indicator” icon, and the sys-
tem adjusts vehicle speed automati-
cally to maintain the distance setting,
regardless of the set speed.
The vehicle will then maintain the set
distance until:
 The vehicle ahead accelerates to aspeed above the set speed.
 The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or view of the sensor.
 The vehicle ahead slows to a speed below 24 km/h and the system au-
tomatically disengages itself.
 The distance setting is changed.
The system disengages. (Refer to the
information on ACC Activation).The maximum braking applied by
ACC is limited; however, the driver
can always apply the brakes manu-
ally, if necessary. NOTE: The brake lights will illu-
minate whenever the ACC system
applies the brakes.
A Proximity Warning will alert the
driver if ACC predicts that its maxi-
mum braking level is not sufficient to
maintain the set distance. If this oc-
curs, a visual alert “BRAKE” will
flash in the EVIC and a chime will
sound while ACC continues to apply
its maximum braking capacity. When
this occurs, you should immediately
apply the brakes as needed to main-
tain a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.

The center console outlet is powered
directly from the battery (power
available at all times). Items plugged
into this outlet may discharge the
battery and/or prevent the engine
from starting.
There is also a 12 volt power outlet
located on the back of the center con-
sole for rear passengers. This power
outlet has power available only when
the ignition is placed in the ACC or
RUN position.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
 Only devices designed for use inthis type of outlet should be in-
serted into any 12 Volt outlet.
 Do not touch with wet hands.
 Close the lid when not in use and while driving the vehicle.
 If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and fail-
ure.
CAUTION!
 Many accessories that can beplugged in draw power from the
vehicle's battery even when not in
use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.).
Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
 Accessories that draw higher
power (i.e., coolers, vacuum
cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade
the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.
 After the use of high power draw accessories or long periods of the
vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the
vehicle must be driven a suffi-
cient length of time to allow the
alternator to recharge the vehi-
cle's battery.

On some vehicles the rear cupholders
are equipped with a light ring that
illuminates the cupholders for the
rear passengers. The light ring is con-
trolled by the Dimmer Control. Refer
to “Lights” in “Understanding The
Features Of Your Vehicle” for further
information.STORAGE
