1If the vehicle is equipped with the TPMS,
when a tyre is removed, it is advisable to re-
place the rubber gasket for the valve. Contact
a Lancia Dealership.
If the vehicle is equipped with the TPMS, tyre
and/or rim fitting/removal operations require
specific precautions. To avoid damaging the
sensors or fitting them incorrectly, tyre and/or rims
fitting/removal operations should be carried out on-
ly by specialists. Contact a Lancia Dealership.
Particularly strong radiofrequency interfer-
ence may cause the TPMS to operate incor-
rectly. This condition is indicated to the dri-
ver by the
nwarning light or symbol lighting up on
the display together with a dedicated message.
The message will disappear automatically as soon
as the interference ceases to disturb the system.

❍Ultras ound source (e.g. pneumatic brakes of trucks or
air drill s) nearby could negatively influence the sens or
performance.
❍ Sens ors may detect a non-exi stent obs tacle (echo in-
terference) due to mechanical interference, for exam-
ple while wa shing the car, rain, s trong wind, hail.
❍ The sens ors might not detect objects of a particular
s hape or made from particular material s (very thin
poles , trailer beams , panels, nets, bushes, parking de-
terrents , rubbish bins, motor vehicles , etc.). Always take
great care, checking that the car and it s path are ef-
fectively compatible with the parking area identified by
the system.
❍ The us e of (one or more) ty res or rims of a different s ize
to thos e pr
es ent when the vehicle wa s purchas ed could
affect the operation of the system.
❍ If the batter y i s dis connected or very run down, before
the Magic Parking system is available it is necessary
to drive a few hundred metre s, not in a straight line,
to initiali se the system.
❍ If a trailer is fitted (with the plug correctly inserted) the
Magic Parking system will automaticall y be dis abled.
❍ If the Magic Parking system is in “search in progress”
mode, the system could incorrectl y identify a parking
s pace and carry out the manoeuvre (e.g. by a junction,
carriage track, roads crossing the direction of travel,
etc.) ❍
In the ca se of parking manoeuvres on roads on a gra-
dient, the performance of the system could be inferior
and it may deactivate.
❍ If a parking manoeuvr
e is being carried out between
two vehicles parked on the pavement, the Magic Park-
ing system may cause the vehicle to mount the pave-
ment.
❍ Some manoeuvres at very tight bend s may not be car-
ried out.
❍ Take great care to ens ure that conditions do not change
during the parking manoeuvre (e.g. if there are pers ons
and/or animals in the parking area, moving vehicle s,
etc.) and intervene immediatel y if necessary .
❍ During parking manoeuvres , pay s pecial attention to
vehicles approaching from the oppo site direction. Al-
ways follow the Highway Code.

Never remove or cover the label. Never apply
a hub cap on a space-saver wheel. The la-
bel bears the following instructions in four
languages: WARNING! FOR TEMPORARY USE
ONLY! 80 KM/H MAX.! REPLACE WITH STAN-
DARD WHEEL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. DO NOT
COVER THIS LABEL.
If you change the type of wheel (alloy rims instead
of steel rims) you will have to change the entire set
of fastening bolts with another set of suitably sized
bolts.Alert other drivers that the car is stationary
in compliance with local regulations: hazard
warning lights, warning triangle, etc. Any
passengers on board should leave the car, especial-
ly if it is heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the wheel is be-
ing changed. If parked on a slope or rough surface,
chock the wheels with wedges or other suitable de-
vices.

IN AN EMERGENCY
The jack can only be used for changing
wheels on the car with which it is provided
or on cars of the same model. Never use the
jack for other purposes, such as lifting other car
models. Never use it for repair operations under the
car. Incorrect positioning of the jack may cause the
car to fall. Do not use the jack for loads higher than
those shown on the label. Snow chains cannot be fit-
ted to the space-saver wheel. Therefore, if a front
(drive) wheel is punctured and chains are required,
a rear wheel should be fitted at the front of the car
and the space-saver wheel should be fitted to the
rear. This way, with two normal front driving
wheels, you can install the snow chains on them,
thus resolving the emergency.If the hub cap is not installed properly, it may
detach when the vehicle is running. Never
tamper with the inflation valve. Never intro-
duce tools of any kind between rim and tyre. Reg-
ularly check tyre and space-saver wheel pressure,
complying with the data in the chapter “6”.

The driving characteristics of the car may
change when a space-saver wheel is fitted.
Avoid violent acceleration and braking,
abrupt steering and fast cornering. The total life
of a space-saver wheel is approximately 3,000 km,
after which it must be replaced by another wheel
of the same type. Never install a standard tyre on
a rim designed for use as a space-saver wheel. Have
the wheel repaired and refitted as soon as possi-
ble. Using two or more space-saver wheels at the
same time is forbidden. Do not apply grease to the
bolt threads before assembly: they might sponta-
neously unscrew.
Tool box (versions with HI-FI Bose)
There is a tool box located in the luggage compartment
for versions with HI-FI Bose.
This box contains:
❍screwdriver;
❍tow hook;
❍wheel bolt spanner;
❍wheel bolt access spanner;
❍alloy rims centring device;
❍jack. REMOVING THE SUBWOOFER
(versions with HI-FI Bose)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IMPORTANT The following procedure only applies to cars
equipped with HI-FI Bose systems with subwoofer (for
versions/markets, where provided).
SUBWOOFER AND SPACE-SAVER WHEEL
Proceed as follows to remove the subwoofer:
❍open the luggage compartment, pull tab A - fig. 10 and
lift up the mat;
❍undo locking device A - fig
. 8 and lift up the subwoofer.
Then remove connection cable B from velcro attach-
ment C;

❍in the presence of a double load compartment, lift the
double compartment mat and attach it to the luggage
compartment mat as shown in fig. 10.
❍for cars fitted with alloy rims, remove the press-fitted
hub cap using the screwdriver provided;
❍loosen the fixing bolts for the wheel to be changed by
about one turn using the spanner provided E - fig. 11;
❍turn the cranking device to partially open it;
❍position the jack near the wheel to be replaced at the
reference point
Oon the side member;
❍make sure that the splines F - fig. 12 on the jack are
firmly fitted to tab G on the side member;

REFITTING THE STANDARD WHEEL
Following the procedure described previously, raise the
car and remove the space-saver wheel.
Ve r sions with steel rims
Proceed as follows:
❍make sure the contact surfaces between standard wheel
and hub are clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose;
❍fit the standard wheel inserting the 4 bolts into the
holes;
❍using the spanner provided, tighten the fixing bolts;
❍press-fit the hub cap, aligning the special splining (on
the cap) with the inflation valve;
❍lower the car and remove the jack;
❍using the spanner provided, fully tighten the bolts in
the sequence shown previously.

IN AN EMERGENCY
Ve r sions with alloy rims
❍Place the wheel onto the hub and tighten the bolts us-
ing the spanner provided;
❍lower the car and remove the jack;
❍using the spanner provided, fully tighten the bolts in
the sequence shown in fig. 8;
❍refit the press-fitted hub cap, making sure that the ref-
erence hole on the wheel is aligned with the reference
pin on the cap.
IMPORTANT If it is not fitted properly, the hub cap may
detach when the vehicle is running.
At the end of the operation
❍Stow the space-saver wheel D - fig. 10 in the space pro-
vided in the luggage compartment;
❍fit the partially open jack in i
ts box forcing it lightly to
prevent it from vibrating when travelling;
❍put the tools back into place in the box;
❍stow the container, complete with tools, in the space-
saver wheel and tighten the locking device B - fig. 10;
❍reposition the luggage compartment mat correctly.IMPORTANT Do not use air chambers tubes with tube-
less tyres. Check the inflation pressure of the tyres and the
space-saver wheel periodically.
Various fixing bolts and space-saver wheels,
specific and differing in structural charac-
teristics, are used depending on the wheel rim
type (alloy or steel). Fixing bolts for alloy rims can
be identified by the presence of a permanent wash-
er and a hollow side on the bolt head.
Therefore, you will need to contact a Lancia Deal-
ership to get the correct type of fixing bolts and
space-saver wheel if you change the type of wheels
fitted (alloy rims instead of steel rims, or vice ver-
sa). Keep the bolts fitted as standard in case of re-
use of the wheels originally mounted on the car.
