Fast windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting (MAX-DEF)
Proceed as follows:
❒turn knob A to the red section;
❒move slider B to
;
❒turn knob C to
;
❒turn knob E to 4 (maximum fan speed).
IMPORTANT The climate control system is very
useful for speeding up demisting since it
dehumidifies the air. Adjust the controls as
described above and press button
to activate the
climate control system (the LED on the button
will light up).ADDITIONAL HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This device speeds up passenger compartment
warming when it is very cold. The additional
heater turns off automatically after reaching the
required comfort conditions.
The heater activates automatically when knob A is
turned to the last red section and the fan is
activated (knob E turned to at least 1
stspeed).
The heater only works if the outside temperature
and engine coolant temperature are low. The
heater will not activate if the battery voltage is too
low.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system must be
turned on at least once a month for about
10 minutes. Have the system inspected at a
Lancia Dealership before the summer.

“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This allows the space in front of the car to be lit
up for a certain period of time.
Activation:with the ignition key on STOP or
removed, pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
within 2 minutes from when the engine is turned
off.
At each single movement of the stalk, the lights
will remain on for an extra 30 seconds up to a
maximum of 210 seconds; then the lights are
switched off automatically.
Each time the stalk is operated, the
warning
light on the instrument panel switches on and the
display also shows a message and how long the
function will remain active.The
warning light switches on when the stalk
is first moved and stays on until the function is
automatically deactivated. Each movement of the
stalk only increases the amount of time the lights
stay on.
Deactivation:keep the stalk pulled towards the
steering wheel for more than two seconds.

WINDOW CLEANINGThe right stalk controls windscreen wiper/washer
and heated rear window wiper/washer operation.
WINDSCREEN WASHER/WIPER
They can be operated only with the ignition key
turned to MAR.
The ring nut A fig. 35 can be moved to four
different positions:
windscreen wiper off.intermittent operation.continuous slow operation.continuous fast operation.Move the stalk upwards (unstable position) to
limit operation to the time for which the stalk is
held in this position. When released, the stalk will
return to its default position and the wiper will
be automatically stopped.
With the ring nut A fig. 35 in position
, the
windscreen wiper will automatically adapt
operating speed to the speed of the car.
With the windscreen wipers operational, if reverse
gear is engaged, the rear window wiper is
automatically activated.
Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor protection,
which prevents operation for a few seconds,
may intervene. If operation is not restored
(even after using the key to restart the engine),
contact a Lancia Dealership.Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the
windscreen.

Deactivation
Move the stalk ring nut away from the position
or turn the ignition key to STOP.
If the ignition key is turned to the STOP position
leaving the ring nut A in position
, no wiping
cycle is performed at the next startup (ignition key
to the MAR position) even if rain is present. This
prevents unwanted activation of the rain sensor
when the engine is started (i.e. when the
windscreen is being washed by hand or the wipers
are stuck to the windscreen by ice).
To restore automatic operation of the rain sensor,
turn ring nut A from
position to
position
and then turn the ring nut back to the
position.
When the rain sensor is reactivated using any of
the manoeuvres described above, reactivation
is indicated by a single stroke of the windscreen
wipers, regardless of the condition of the
windscreen.If the sensitivity is changed whilst the rain sensor
is operating, a windscreen wiper stroke is carried
out to confirm the change even if the windscreen
is dry.
In the event of malfunction of the rain sensor
whilst it is active, the windscreen wiper operates
intermittently at a speed consistent with the
sensitivity setting of the rain sensor, regardless of
whether there is rain on the glass (on some
versions sensor failure is indicated on the display).
The sensor continues to operate and it is possible
to set the windscreen wiper to continuous mode
(1
stor 2
nd
speed). The failure indication remains
for as long as the sensor is active.

The rain sensor is able to recognise, and
automatically adjust itself in the presence of the
following conditions:
❒presence of dirt on the controlled surface (salt,
dirt, etc.);
❒presence of streaks of water caused by the worn
window wiper blades;
❒difference between day and night.
Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car
wash.Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.
WARNING
Make sure the device is switched off
whenever the windscreen must be
cleaned.REAR WINDOW WASHER/ WIPER
It can be operated only with the ignition key
turned to MAR.
Activation
Turn the ring nut B fig. 35 from
to
to operate
the rear window wiper as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the windscreen wiper
is not operating;
❒in synchronous mode (at half the speed of the
windscreen wiper) when the windscreen wiper
is operating;
❒in continuous mode with reverse gear engaged
and the control active.
With the windscreen wiper on and reverse gear
engaged, rear window wiping will be continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(unstable position) the rear window washer jet
will activate. Keep the stalk pushed for more than
half a second to activate the rear window wiper
as well. Releasing the stalk will activate the smart
washing function, as described for the windscreen
wiper.

Deactivation
The function stops when the stalk is released.
Do not use the rear window wiper to
remove layers of snow or ice. In these
conditions, the windscreen wipers may
be submitted to excessive effort resulting in
the motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation being inhibited for a few seconds. If
operation is not restored, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
CRUISE CONTROL(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving
assistance device which allows the car to be driven
at a chosen speed above 30 km/h on long
stretches of dry, straight roads with few variations
(e.g. motorways), without having to depress the
accelerator pedal.
The use of this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic is not therefore recommended. Do not
use the device in town.
Activating the device
Turn ring nut A fig. 37 to ON. Activation is
indicated by the
warning light switching on
and, on some versions, by a message on the
display.
