If you travel in areas with few filling stations
and you want to transport fuel in a spare
tank, comply with the regulations in force and
use only an approved, suitably secured tank. Any-
way, by doing so, you increase the risk of fire in case
of an accident with your vehicle.
Be careful not to hit objects on the storage
shelf when you open the tailgate.
Never exceed the maximum allowed load in
the luggage compartment; see chapter 6. Al-
so make sure that the objects you place in the
luggage compartment have been properly secured,
to avoid them from being thrown forward conse-
quent to sudden braking and injuring your passen-
gers. Never travel with the tailgate open: exhaust
gases may get into the passenger’s compartment.

1With hot engine, operate with caution inside
the engine compartment to avoid burns. Do
not place your hands near the engine fan as
it may be activated even when the switch is disabled.
Wait for engine cooling.
Pay attention to scarves, ties and other loose
fitting garments. If they accidentally touch
moving parts, they may get dragged with se-
rious risks for those who wear them.
C LOS ING fig . 67
Proceed as follows:
❍ Hold the bonnet up with one hand and with the oth-
er remove rod C from hou sing D and put it back into
its catch;
❍ Lower the bonnet to approximatel y 20 centimetres
from the engine compartment and let it drop. Make
s ure that the bonnet is completely closed and not on-
l y fas tened by the safety catch by trying to open it. If
it is not fully closed, open the bonnet and repeat the
procedure. Do not simply press it.
For safety reasons, the bonnet must always
be properly closed while driving. Make sure
that the bonnet is perfectly closed and that
the lock is engaged. If you discover that the bonnet
is not perfectly closed during travel, stop immedi-
ately and close the bonnet in the correct manner.

Under no circumstances should aftermarket
operations be carried out involving steering
system or steering column modifications (e.g.
installation of anti-theft device). This could nega-
tively affect performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty, cause serious safety problems and also
result in vehicle non-compliance with type-ap-
proval requirements.
Before servicing the car, switch off the engine
and remove the key from the ignition device
to activate the steering lock. This is especially
important when the car wheels are not touching the
ground. If this is not possible (i.e. if the key must be
kept in the MAR position or the engine must be kept
running), remove the main electric power steering
system fuse.On some versions, with the CITY function ac-
tivated, the SPORT function is not available.
To activate the SPORT function, deactivate the
CITY function and vice versa, because they are rec-
iprocally incompatible.
IMPORTANT The function i s activated about 5 s econds
after the S PORT button is pressed.
IMPORTANT The s teering may become stiffer during
parking manoeuvres including a great deal of s teering.
This is normal and caus ed by the system preventing the
electric control motor overheating. No repair s are needed.
The power s teering system will s tart working normall y
again the next time the car i s u sed.

ADVANCED ESP SYSTEM
(ELECTRONIC STABILITY
PROGRAM)
This is an electronic system controlling car s tability in the
event of ty re grip loss, helping to maintain directional con-
trol.
The Advanced E SP system is therefore particularly use-
ful when road surface grip condition s change.
With the Advanced E SP system as well as the ASR (trac-
tion control with intervention on the brake s and the en-
gine) plus the HILL HOLDER (device for hill starts with-
out us ing the brakes ) and also MSR (adjus tment of engine
braking force with gear down shift), HBA (automatic in-
creas e in braking pressure during emergency braking),
ABS (preventing the wheel s from locking and slipping on
all road s urfaces during s harp braking and D ST (appli-
cation of force on the steering wheel for steering correc-
tion) functions are all available. S
Y STEM INTERVENTION
This is s ignalled b y the blinking of the á warning light on
the ins trument panel, to inform the driver that the car i s
in critical s tability and grip condition s.
S witching the system on
The Advanced ES P system comes on automaticall y when
the vehicle is started and cannot be turned off.
Fault indications
In the event of a failur

e, the Advanced ES P system will be
automaticall y s witched off and á warning light will ap-
pear cons tantly in the ins trument panel along with a me s-
s age on the reconfigurable multifunction di splay . The LED
on the AS R OFF button will als o light up (see “Instrument
panel warning light s” chapter). In thi s cas e, go to a Lan-
cia Dealers hip.
The performance of the Advanced ESP sys-
tem should not encourage the driver to take
unnecessary risks. Driving style must always
be adapted to road conditions, visibility and traf-
fic. The driver is ultimately responsible for road
safety.
