2014 Lancia Thema seats

WARNING!
Never place a rear facing infantseat in front of an air bag. A de-
ploying Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag can cause death or
serious injury to a child 12 years
or younger, including a child in a
rearward facing infant seat.
Only use a rearward-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear
seat.
Older Children And Child
Restraints
Children who are two years old or who
have outgrown their rear-facing con-
vertible child seat can ride forward-
facing in the vehicle. Forward-facing
child seats and convertible child seats
used in the forward-facing direction
are for children who are over two
years old or who have outgrown the
rear-facing weight or height limit of
their rear-facing convertible child
seat. Children should remain in a
forward-facing child seat with a har-
ness for as long as possible, up to the
highest weight or height allowed by
the child seat. All children whose weight or height is
above the forward-facing limit for the
child seat should use a belt-
positioning booster seat until the ve-
hicle’s seat belts fit properly. If the
child cannot sit with knees bent over
the vehicle’s seat cushion while the
child’s back is against the seatback,
they should use a belt-positioning
booster seat. The child and belt-
positioning booster seat are held in
the vehicle by the seat belt.
WARNING!
Improper installation can lead to
failure of an infant or child re-
straint. It could come loose in a
collision. The child could be
badly injured or killed. Follow
the child restraint manufacturer’s
directions exactly when installing
an infant or child restraint.

WARNING!(Continued)
When your child restraint is notin use, secure it in the vehicle with
the seat belt or ISOFIX anchor-
ages, or remove it from the ve-
hicle. Do not leave it loose in the
vehicle. In a sudden stop or acci-
dent, it could strike the occupants
or seatbacks and cause serious
personal injury.
Children Too Large For Booster
Seats
Children who are large enough to
wear the shoulder belt comfortably,
and whose legs are long enough to
bend over the front of the seat when
their back is against the seatback,
should use the seat belt in a rear seat.
Use this simple 5-step test to decide
whether the child can use the vehicle’s
seat belt alone:
1. Can the child sit all the way back
against the back of the vehicle seat?
2. Do the child’s knees bend comfort-
ably over the front of the vehicle seat –
while they are still sitting all the way
back? 49

ISOFIX Restraint System
Your vehicle is equipped with the
child restraint anchorage system
called ISOFIX. The ISOFIX system
has three vehicle anchor points for
installing ISOFIX-equipped child
seats. There are two lower anchorages
located at the back of the seat cushion
where it meets the seatback and one
top tether anchorage located behind
the seating position. These anchor-
ages are used to install ISOFIX-
equipped child seats without using
the vehicle’s seat belts. Some seating
positions may have a top tether an-
chorage but no lower anchorages. In
these seating positions, the seat belt must be used with the top tether an-
chorage to install the child restraint.
Locating The ISOFIX Anchorages
The lower anchorages are
round bars that are found at
the rear of the seat cushion
where it meets the seatback,
below the anchorage symbols on the
seatback. They are just visible when
you lean into the rear seat to install
the child restraint. You will easily feel
them if you run your finger along the
gap between the seatback and seat
cushion. Locating The ISOFIX Anchorages
In addition, there are tether
strap anchorages behind
each rear seating position
located in the panel be-
tween the rear seatback and the rear
ISOFIX Anchorages
53

window. These tether strap anchor-
ages are under a plastic cover with the
tether anchorage symbol on it.
ISOFIX child restraint systems will be
equipped with a rigid bar on each
side. Each will have a hook or connec-
tor to attach to the lower anchorage
and a way to tighten the connection to
the anchorage. Forward-facing child
restraints and some rear-facing infant
restraints may also be equipped with
a tether strap. The tether strap will
have a hook at the end to attach to the
top tether anchorage and a way to
tighten the strap after it is attached to
the anchorage.Center Seat ISOFIX
If a child restraint installed in the
center position blocks the seat belt
webbing or buckle for the outboard
position, do not use that outboard po-
sition. If a child seat in the center
position blocks the outboard ISOFIX
anchors or seat belt, do not install a
child seat in that outboard position.
WARNING!
Never use the same lower anchor-
age to attach more than one child
restraint. Please refer to “To Install
a ISOFIX-Compatible Child Re-
straint” for typical installation in-
structions.
Always follow the directions of the
child restraint manufacturer when in-
stalling your child restraint. Not all
child restraint systems will be in-
stalled as described here. To Install An ISOFIX-compatible
Child Restraint
1. If the selected seating position has
a Switchable Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) seat belt, stow the seat
belt, following the instructions below.
See the section “Installing Child Re-
straints Using the Vehicle Seat Belt”
to check what type of seat belt each
seating position has.
2. Loosen the adjusters on the lower
connectors and on the tether strap of
the child seat so that you can more
easily attach the connectors to the ve-
hicle anchorages.
3. Place the child seat between the
lower anchorages for that seating po-
sition. For some second row seats, you
may need to recline the seat and / or
raise the head restraint to get a better
fit. If the rear seat can be moved for-
ward and rearward in the vehicle, you
may wish to move it to its rear-most
position to make room for the child
seat. You may also move the front seat
forward to allow more room for the
car seat.

the retractor and then letting the web-
bing retract back into the retractor. If
it is locked, the ALR will make a
clicking noise while the webbing is
pulled back into the retractor. For
additional information on ALR, refer
to the “Automatic Locking Mode” de-
scription under “Occupant Re-
straints.” The cinching latch plate is
designed to hold the lap portion of the
seatbelt tight when webbing is pulled
tight and straight through a child re-
straint’s belt path.
Installing A Child Restraint With
A Switchable Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR)
1. Place the child seat in the center of
the seating position. For some second
row seats, you may need to recline the
seat and/or raise the head restraint to
get a better fit. If the rear seat can be
moved forward and rearward in the
vehicle, you may wish to move it to its
rear-most position to make room for
the child seat. You may also move the
front seat forward to allow more room
for the car seat.2. Pull enough of the seat belt web-
bing from the retractor to pass it
through the belt path of the child re-
straint. Do not twist the belt webbing
in the belt path.
3. Slide the latch plate into the
buckle until you hear a “click.”
4. Pull on the webbing to make the
lap portion tight against the child
seat.
5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on
the shoulder part of the belt until you
have pulled all the seat belt webbing
out of the retractor. Then, allow the
webbing to retract back into the re-
tractor. As the webbing retracts, you
will hear a clicking sound. This means
the seat belt is now in the Automatic
Locking mode.
6. Try to pull the webbing out of the
retractor. If it is locked, you should
not be able to pull out any webbing. If
the retractor is not locked, repeat step
5.
7. Finally, pull up on any excess web-
bing to tighten the lap portion around
the child restraint while you push the
child restraint rearward and down-
ward into the vehicle seat.
8. If the child restraint has a top
tether strap and the seating position
has a top tether anchorage, connect
the tether strap to the anchorage and
tighten the tether strap. Refer to “In-
stalling Child Restraints Using The
Top Tether Anchorage” for directions
to attach a tether anchor.
9. Test that the child restraint is in-
stalled tightly by pulling back and
forth on the child seat at the belt path.
It should not move more than 25.4
mm in any direction.
Any seat belt system will loosen with
time, so check the belt occasionally,
and pull it tight if necessary.

Child Restraint With A Cinching
Latch Plate (CINCH) — (for
versions/markets where provided)
1. Place the child seat in the center of
the seating position. For some second
row seats, you may need to recline the
seat and / or raise the head restraint to
get a better fit. If the rear seat can be
moved forward and rearward in the
vehicle, you may wish to move it to its
rear-most position to make room for
the child seat. You may also move the
front seat forward to allow more room
for the car seat.
2. Next, pull enough of the seat belt
webbing from the retractor to pass it
through the belt path of the child re-
straint. Do not twist the belt webbing
in the belt path.
3. Slide the latch plate into the
buckle until you hear a “click.”
4. Finally, pull up on any excess web-
bing to tighten the lap portion around
the child restraint while you push the
child restraint rearward and down-
ward into the vehicle seat.5. If the child restraint has a top
tether strap and the seating position
has a top tether anchorage, connect
the tether strap to the anchorage and
tighten the tether strap. Refer to “In-
stalling Child Restraints Using The
Top Tether Anchorage” for directions
to attach a tether anchor.
6. Test that the child restraint is in-
stalled tightly by pulling back and
forth on the child seat at the belt path.
It should not move more than 25.4
mm in any direction.
Any seat belt system will loosen with
time, so check the belt occasionally,
and pull it tight if necessary.
If the buckle or the cinching latch
plate is too close to the belt path open-
ing of the child restraint, you may
have trouble tightening the seat belt.
If this happens, disconnect the latch
plate from the buckle and twist the
short buckle-end belt up to three full
turns to shorten it. Insert the latch
plate into the buckle with the release
button facing out, away from the
child restraint. Repeat steps 4 to 6,
above, to complete the installation of
the child restraint.
If the belt still cannot be tightened
after you shorten the buckle, discon-
nect the latch plate from the buckle,
turn the buckle around one half turn,
and insert the latch plate into the
buckle again. If you still cannot make
the child restraint installation tight,
try a different seating position.
Installing Child Restraints Using
The Top Tether Anchorage
1. Look behind the seating
position where you plan to
install the child restraint to
find the tether anchorage.
You may need to move the seat for-
ward to provide better access to the
tether anchorage. If there is no top
tether anchorage for that seating po-
sition, move the child restraint to an-
other position in the vehicle if one is
available.

break-in. Wide-open throttle accel-
eration in low gear can be detrimental
and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine
at the factory is a high-quality energy
conserving type lubricant. Oil
changes should be consistent with an-
ticipated climate conditions under
which vehicle operations will occur.
For the recommended viscosity and
quality grades, refer to “Maintenance
Procedures” in “Maintaining Your Ve-
hicle”. NON-DETERGENT OR
STRAIGHT MINERAL OILS MUST
NEVER BE USED.
A new engine may consume some oil
during its first few thousand kilome-
ters of operation. This should be con-
sidered a normal part of the break-in
and not interpreted as an indication of
difficulty.
ADDITIONAL
REQUIREMENTS FOR
DIESEL ENGINE
During the first 1500 km avoid heavy
loads, e.g. driving at full throttle. Donot exceed 2/3 of the maximum per-
missible engine speed for each gear.
Change gear in good time. Do not shift
down a gear manually in order to
brake.

SEATS
Seats are a part of the Occupant Re-
straint System of the vehicle.
WARNING!
It is dangerous to ride in a cargoarea, inside or outside of a ve-
hicle. In a collision, people riding
in these areas are more likely to
be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat
belts. In a collision, people riding
in these areas are more likely to
be seriously injured or killed.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
POWER SEATS
On models equipped with power
seats, the switch is located on the out-
board side of the seat near the floor.
Use this switch to move the driver's
seat up or down, forward or rearward
or to recline the seatback. NOTE: The passenger's seat will
move up or down, forward or rear-
ward.
WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while driving
may be dangerous. Moving a seat
while driving could result in loss
of control which could cause a
collision and serious injury or
death.
