WARNING!
For personal security and safetyin the event of a collision, lock the
vehicle doors as you drive as well
as when you park and leave the
vehicle.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the Key Fob from the ig-
nition and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle. Allowing children
to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of rea-
sons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Chil-
dren should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the shift lever.

WARNING!(Continued)
Do not leave the Key Fob in or
near the vehicle, or in a location
accessible to children, and do not
leave the ignition of a vehicle
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-
Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN
mode. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
POWER DOOR LOCKS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
A power door lock switch is on each
front door trim panel. Use this switch
to lock or unlock the doors.
If you press the power door lock
switch while the Key Fob is in the ignition, and any front door is open,
the power locks will not operate. This
prevents you from accidentally lock-
ing your keys in the vehicle. Remov-
ing the Key Fob or closing the door
will allow the locks to operate. A
chime will sound if the Key Fob is in
the ignition switch and a door is open,
as a reminder to remove the Key Fob.
If you press the power door lock
switch while the sliding door is open,
the sliding door will lock.

desired length to restrain a child seat
or secure a large item in a seat
If you will be carrying children too
small for adult-sized seat belts, the
seat belts or the ISOFIX feature also
can be used to hold infant and child
restraint systems. For more informa-
tion on ISOFIX, see ISOFIX — Child
Seat Anchorage System.
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.
NOTE: The Advanced Front Air
Bags have a multistage inflator de-
sign. This allows the air bag to
have different rates of inflation
based on several factors, including
the severity and type of collision. Please pay close attention to the infor-
mation in this section. It tells you how
to use your restraint system properly,
to keep you and your passengers as
safe as possible.
Buckle up even though you are an
excellent driver, even on short trips.
Someone on the road may be a poor
driver and cause a collision that in-
cludes you. This can happen far away
from home or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts
save lives, and they can reduce the
seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen
when people are thrown from the ve-
hicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility
of ejection and the risk of injury
caused by striking the inside of the
vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle
should be belted at all times.
LAP/SHOULDER BELTS
All seating positions in your vehicle
are equipped with combination lap/
shoulder belts.
The belt webbing in the retractor is
designed to lock during very suddenstops or collisions. This feature allows
the shoulder part of the belt to move
freely with you under normal condi-
tions. However, in a collision the belt
will lock and reduce the risk of you
striking the inside of the vehicle or
being thrown out.
The driver is responsible for respect-
ing, and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the car also respect, the
local laws in force in relation to the
use of the seat belts. Always fasten the
seat belts before starting.
WARNING!
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo
area, 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.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.

WARNING!
A frayed or torn belt could rip apart
in a collision and leave you with no
protection. Inspect the belt system
periodically, checking for cuts,
frays, or loose parts. Damaged
parts must be replaced immedi-
ately. Do not disassemble or modify
the system. Seat belt assemblies
must be replaced after a collision if
they have been damaged (bent re-
tractor, torn webbing, etc.).
Third Row Center Shoulder Belt
Instructions
The shoulder belt for the third row
center seat is located in the headliner
slightly behind the third row seat.
Pull the strap down and secure the
small latch plate of the lap belt into
the small buckle until you hear a
“click”.
Position the shoulder belt on your
chest so that it is comfortable and not
resting on your neck. When the belt is
long enough to fit , insert the large
latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” The retractor should
withdraw any slack in the belt.
To release the small latch plate, posi-
tion the end of the large latch plate
against the red button on the small
latch plate and push upward. Rein-
stall the latch plates into the head-
liner.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting
Procedure
Use the following procedure to un-
twist a twisted lap/shoulder belt.
1. Position the latch plate as close as
possible to the anchor point.
2. At about 15 to 30 cm above the
latch plate, grasp and twist the belt
webbing 180 degrees to create a fold
that begins immediately above the
latch plate.
3. Slide the latch plate upward over
the folded webbing. The folded web-
bing must enter the slot at the top of
the latch plate.
4. Continue to slide the latch plate up
until it clears the folded webbing.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt
Anchorage
In the front seats and the second row
outboard seats, the shoulder belt an-
chorage can be adjusted upward or
downward to help position the belt
away from your neck. The upper an-
chorage can be adjusted upward by
pushing anywhere on the anchorage.
To move the anchorage downward,
squeeze the actuation buttons while
simultaneously pushing down on the
anchorage assembly.
As a guide, if you are shorter than
average you will prefer a lower posi-
tion, and if you are taller than average
you will prefer a higher position.
When you release the anchorage, try
to move it up or down to make sure
that it is locked in position.
WARNING!
The seat belts height must only be
adjusted when the vehicle is sta-
tionary.

SEAT BELTS IN
PASSENGER SEATING
POSITIONS
The seat belts in the passenger seating
positions are equipped with Auto-
matic Locking Retractors (ALR)which are used to secure a child re-
straint system. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Installing Child Re-
straints Using The Vehicle Seat Belt”
under the “Child Restraints” section.
The chart below defines the type of
feature for each seating position.

Automatic Locking Retractor
If the passenger seating position is
equipped with an ALR and is being
used for normal usage:
Only pull the belt webbing out far
enough to comfortably wrap around
the occupant's mid-section so as to not
activate the ALR. If the ALR is acti-
vated, you will hear a ratcheting sound
as the belt retracts. Allow the webbing
to retract completely in this case and
then carefully pull out only the amount
of webbing necessary to comfortably wrap around the occupant's mid-
section. Slide the latch plate into the
buckle until you hear a "click."
AUTOMATIC LOCKING
RETRACTOR MODE (ALR)
In this mode, the shoulder belt is auto-
matically pre-locked. The belt will still
retract to remove any slack in the
shoulder belt. The Automatic Locking
Mode is available on all passenger-
seating positions with a combination
lap/shoulder belt. Use the Automatic
Locking Mode anytime a child safety
seat is installed in a seating position
that has a belt with this feature. Chil-
dren 12 years old and under should
always be properly restrained in the
rear seat.
How To Engage The Automatic
Locking Mode
1. Buckle the combination lap and
shoulder belt.
2. Grasp the shoulder portion and
pull downward until the entire belt is
extracted.

Reminder Light and sounding an in-
termittent chime. Once the sequence
starts, it will continue for the entire
duration or until the respective seat-
belts are fastened. After the sequence
completes, the Seat Belt Reminder
Light remains illuminated until the
respective seat belts are fastened. The
driver should instruct all other occu-
pants to fasten their seat belts. If a
front seat belt is unbuckled while
traveling at speeds greater than
8 km/h, BeltAlert® will provide both
audio and visual notification.
The front passenger seat BeltAlert® is
not active when the front passenger
seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert® may be
triggered when an animal or heavy
object is on the front passenger seat or
when the seat is folded flat (for
versions/markets, where provided). It
is recommended that pets be re-
strained in the rear seat in pet har-
nesses or pet carriers that are secured
by seat belts, and cargo is properly
stowed.BeltAlert® can be enabled or disabled
by your authorized dealer. LANCIA
does not recommend deactivating
BeltAlert®.
NOTE: Although BeltAlert® has
been deactivated, the Seat Belt Re-
minder Light will continue to illu-
minate while the driver’s or front
passenger (for versions/markets,
where provided with BeltAlert®)
seat belt remains unfastened.
SEAT BELTS AND
PREGNANT WOMEN
We recommend that pregnant women
use the seat belts throughout their
pregnancies. Keeping the mother safe
is the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap
part of the belt across the thighs and
as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not
come across the abdomen. That way
the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.
SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
— AIR BAGS
This vehicle has Advanced Front Air
Bags for both the driver and front
passenger as a supplement to the seat
belt restraint systems. The driver's
Advanced Front Air Bag is mounted
in the center of the steering wheel.
The passenger's Advanced Front Air
Bag is mounted in the instrument
panel, above the glove compartment.
The words SRS AIRBAG are em-
bossed on the air bag covers.

WARNING!
No objects should be placed overor near the air bag on the instru-
ment panel, because any such ob-
jects could cause harm if the ve-
hicle is in a collision severe
enough to cause the air bag to
inflate.
Do not put anything on or around the air bag covers or attempt to
open them manually. You may
damage the air bags and you
could be injured because the air
bags may no longer be functional.
The protective covers for the air
bag cushions are designed to open
only when the air bags are inflat-
ing.
Do not drill, cut or tamper with the knee bolster in any way.
Do not mount any accessories to the knee bolster such as alarm
lights, stereos, citizen band ra-
dios, etc.
Here are some simple steps you can
take to minimize the risk of harm
from a deploying air bag: Children 12 years old and under
should always ride buckled up in a
rear seat.
WARNING!
Infants in rear-facing child re-
straints should never ride in the
front seat of a vehicle with a Pas-
senger Advanced Front Air Bag. An
air bag deployment can cause se-
vere injury or death to infants in
that position.
You should read the instructions pro-
vided with your child restraint to
make sure that you are using it prop-
erly.
All occupants should always wear
their lap and shoulder belts properly.
Children that are not big enough to
wear the vehicle seat belt properly
(see Section on Child Restraints)
should be secured in the rear seat in
child restraints or belt-positioning
booster seats. Older children who do
not use child restraints or belt-
positioning booster seats should ride
properly buckled up in the rear seat. Never allow children to slide the
shoulder belt behind them or under
their arm.
If the air bag system in this vehicle
needs to be modified to accommodate
a disabled person, contact the Cus-
tomer Center.
The driver and front passenger seats
should be moved back as far as prac-
tical to allow the Advanced Front Air
Bags room to inflate.
Do not lean against the door or win-
dow. If your vehicle has side air bags,
and deployment occurs, the side air
bags will inflate forcefully into the
space between you and the door.
WARNING!
Relying on the air bags alone
could lead to more severe injuries
in a collision. The air bags work
with your seat belt to restrain you
properly. In some collisions, the
air bags won't deploy at all. Al-
ways wear your seat belts even
though you have air bags.

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?
3. Does the shoulder belt cross the
child’s shoulder between their neck
and arm?
4. Is the lap part of the belt as low as
possible, touching the child’s thighs
and not their stomach?
5. Can the child stay seated like this
for the whole trip?
If the answer to any of these questions
was “no,” then the child still needs to
use a booster seat in this vehicle. If the
child is using the lap/shoulder belt,
check belt fit periodically. A child’s
squirming or slouching can move the
belt out of position. If the shoulder
belt contacts the face or neck, move
the child closer to the center of the
vehicle. Never allow a child to put the
shoulder belt under an arm or behind
their back.

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.4. Attach the connectors of the child
restraint to the lower anchorages in
the selected seating position.
5. If the child restraint has a tether
strap, connect it to the top tether an-
chorage. See the section “Installing
Child Restraints Using the Top Tether
Anchorage” for directions to attach a
tether anchor.
6. Tighten all of the straps as you
push the child restraint rearward and
downward into the seat. Remove
slack in the straps according to the
child restraint manufacturer’s in-
structions.
7. 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.WARNING!
Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly-fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult
seat belts, harnesses, or for attach-
ing other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
How To Stow An Unused ALR
Seatbelt
When using the ISOFIX attaching
system to install a child restraint, stow
all ALR seat belts that are not being
used by other occupants or being used
to secure child restraints. An unused
belt could injure a child if they play
with it and accidentally lock the seat-
belt retractor. Before installing a child
restraint using the ISOFIX system,
buckle the seat belt behind the child
restraint and out of the child’s reach.
If the buckled seat belt interferes with
the child restraint installation, instead
of buckling it behind the child re-
straint, route the seat belt through the
child restraint belt path and then
buckle it. Do not lock the seatbelt.
