Airbag failure (red)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light s tays on con-
s tantly if there is a fault in the airbag system.
The dis play will s how the dedicated me ssage.

If the ¬warning light does not come on when
the key is turned to MAR or if it stays on with
the car in motion (together with the message
on the display) there could be a fault in the restraint
systems; under these circumstances, the airbags or
pretensioners may not be deployed in the event of
an impact or, more rarely, they could be deployed
accidentally. Contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the system checked immediately.
The failure of the ¬warning light is indi-
cated by the
“warning light flashing longer
than the expected 4 seconds, which signals
that the front passenger airbag is deactivated. In
addition, the airbag system automatically deacti-
vates the passenger side airbags (front airbag and
side bag). In this case, the
¬warning light may not
indicate failures in the retaining systems. Before
proceeding, contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
system checked immediately.
EBD failure
If warning lights x
(red) and>(amber) are
on at the s ame time with the engine running,
this indicates an EBD system failure or that the
system is not available. Earl y locking of the rear
wheels may occur in the event of sharp brak-
ing, possibly causing the car to s werve.
Drive very carefully to a Lancia Dealer ship to have
the system ins pected immediatel y. The dis play will s how

SAFETY
Should it be necessary to carry a child on the
passenger side front seat in a rear facing
child restraint system, the passenger side
front airbag and side bag (for versions/markets,
where provided) must be deactivated through the
Setup menu. Deactivation should be verified by
checking whether the warning light is switched on
in the instrument panel. Move the passenger’s seat
as far back as possible to avoid contact between the
child restraint system and the dashboard.Do not move the front or rear seat if a child
is seated on it or on the dedicated child re-
straint system.On the sun visor there is a label with suitable
symbols to remind you that it is compulsory to
deactivate the airbag if a rear facing child re-
straint system is fitted. Always comply with the in-
structions on the passenger’s side sun visor (see the
“Front Airbags” paragraph).
In Europe the characteristics of children restraint systems
are ruled by the regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:Group Weight rangeGroup 0 up to 10 kgGroup 0+ up to 13 kgGroup 1 9-18 kgGroup 2 15-25 kgGroup 3 22-36 kg
All restraint devices must bear the type-approval data
along with the control mark on a fixed label which must
never be removed in any circumstances. Lineaccessori
Lancia includes child restraint systems for each weight
group. These devices are recommended, having been
specifically designed for Lancia cars.

SAFETY
Main instructions for carrying children safely:
❍Install the child restraint systems on the rear seat,
which is the most protected position in the event of
an accident.
❍Keep children in rear facing restraint systems for as
long as possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
❍Should a rear facing child restraint system be installed
on the rear seats, it is advisable to position it as far for-
ward as the position of the front seat allows.
❍If the front passenger’s airbag is deactivated always
check that the dedicated warning light is permanent-
ly switched on on the instrument panel to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.
❍Carefully follow the instructions supplied with the child
restraint system itself. Keep the instructions in the car
along with the other documents and this handbook.
Do not use second-hand child restraint systems with-
out instructions.❍Only one child is to be strapped to each retaining sys-
tem; never use it to transport two children at once.
❍Always check that the seat belts do not interfere with
the child’s throat.
❍Always check that the seat belt is well fastened by
pulling on it.
❍While travelling, do not let the ch
ild sit incorrectly or
unfasten the belts.
❍Never allow a child to put the belt’s diagonal section
under an arm or behind their back.
❍Never carry children on your lap, even newborns. No-
one can restrain a child in the event of an accident.
❍In the event of an accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one.
Fit the child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.

protection in the event of frontal impact.
Manual deactivation of passenger
front airbag and side bag
Should it be absolutely necessary to carry a child on the
front seat, the passenger front airbags and side bags can
be deactivated.
The instrument panel
“
warning light will stay on con-
stantly until the passenger front airbag and the Side Bag
are reactivated.
IMPORTANT To deactivate the passenger’s front airbag
and the side bags (for versions/markets, where provided),
refer to “Multifunction display” and “Reconfigurable mul-
tifunction display” paragraphs in the “Knowing your car”
chapter.

When there is an active passenger airbag, DO
NOT install rear facing child restraint sys-
tems on the front seat. Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could cause fatal in-
juries to the child regardless of the severity
of the impact. Therefore, always deactivate the pas-
senger airbag when a rear facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passenger seat. The
front passenger seat must also be positioned back
as far as possible in order to avoid the child re-
straint system from coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system has been
removed.

With ignition key inserted, at MAR, even if
the engine is off, the airbags can activate al-
so with the car stopped, if it is hit by anoth-
er vehicle. Therefore, even if the car is stationary,
when an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT
install rear facing child restraint systems on the
front passenger seat. Deployment of the airbag fol-
lowing an impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
airbag when a rear facing child restraint system
is installed on the front passenger seat. The front
passenger seat must also be positioned back as far
as possible in order to avoid the child restraint sys-
tem from coming into contact with the dashboard.
Immediately reactivate the passenger airbag as soon
as the child restraint system has been removed. Al-
so remember that, if the key is turned to STOP, none
of the safety devices (airbags or pretensioners) will
be deployed in the event of collision. Non-deploy-
ment in such cases does not indicate a system mal-
function.
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the
“warning light turns on and blinks for a few
seconds to remind you that the passenger
airbag will activate in the event of a collision. Then
it should turn off.Do not wash the seats with water or pres-
surised steam (by hand or at automatic car
seat washing stations).The front airbags deploy in the event of more
severe collisions than those required for de-
ploying the pretensioners. For impacts in the
range between the two activation thresholds, pre-
tensioner activation alone is normal.Do not hook rigid objects to clothes hangers
and support handles.The airbag does not replace seat belts; it in-
creases their effectiveness. Furthermore, since
front airbags are not deployed in low speed
collisions, side collisions, rear-end shunts or roll-
overs, the passengers are only protected by the seat
belts which must be fastened at all times.
