AIRBAGThe car is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger, front side bags for driver and passenger
chest-shoulder protection (for versions/markets,
where provided), and window bags for protecting
the heads of front occupants.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags protect
the front seat occupants in the event of head-on
impacts of medium-high severity, by placing
the bag between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of
impacts (side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) air bags are not a
replacement of but complementary to the seat
belts, which you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt move forward and may come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is reduced in these
circumstances.Front airbags may not activate in the following
situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable
objects not involving the front surface of the car
(e.g. wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their deployment
would be inappropriate. In these cases, non-
deployment does not indicate a system
malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the
dashboard in the passenger side airbag area,
on side upholstery on roof and on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side of the dashboard since they
could interfere with correct inflation of
the passenger airbag and also cause serious
injury to the passengers.

Driver side front airbag
This consists of an instantly inflating bag
contained in a special compartment in the centre
of the steering wheel fig. 108.
WARNING
Always drive keeping your hands on
the steering wheel rim so that the
airbag can inflate freely if necessary. Do not
drive with your body bent forward. Keep
your back straight against the backrest.
Passenger side front airbag
This consists of an instantly-inflating bag
contained in a special compartment in the
dashboard fig. 109: this bag has a larger volume
than that on the driver's side.
WARNING
SERIOUS DANGER: never place
cradle child seats facing backwards
on the front passenger seat of cars
with active passenger side airbag.
Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Always deactivate the passenger side
airbag when placing a child seat on the front
seat. The passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in order
to avoid the child seat from coming into
contact with the dashboard. Although this is
not mandatory by law, the airbag should
be immediately reactivated when children
are no longer transported to ensure better
protection for adults.

IMPORTANT
Do not wash the seats with water or pressurised
steam (by hand or at automatic seat washing
stations).
The front airbags and/or side bags may be
deployed if the car is subject to violent impacts
involving the underbody area (e.g. violent impacts
against steps or kerbs, big holes or dips in the
road etc.).
When the airbag deploys it emits a small amount
of dust: the dust is harmless and does not indicate
the beginning of a fire. The dust may irritate the
skin and eyes however: in this case, wash with
neutral soap and water.
Airbag checking, repair and replacement must be
carried out at a Lancia Dealership.
If the car is scrapped, have the airbag system
deactivated at a Lancia Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed in
different ways, according to the type of impact.
Failure to deploy of one or more of the devices
does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
If when turning the key to MAR the
warning light
does not switch on or
stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the airbags or pretensioners may not be
deployed in an impact or, in a lower number
of cases, they may be deployed accidentally.
Before continuing, contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
WARNING
For versions/markets where
provided, in the event of
warning
light failure, the
warning light switches on
and the explosive charges of the passenger
airbag are deactivated.
WARNING
On vehicles with side bags, do not
cover the front seat backrests with
extra covers.

INTERIORSPeriodically check for water puddles under the
mats that could cause the panels to rust.
WARNING
Never use flammable products, such
as petrol ether or rectified petrol to
clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic
charges which are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation may cause a
fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
they might explode. Aerosol cans
must not be exposed to a temperature
exceeding 50°C. When the car is exposed to
sunlight, internal temperature can greatly
exceed this value.SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum
cleaner. It is advisable to use a moist brush on
velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge and a solution of
water and mild soap.
PLASTIC AND COATED PARTS
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp cloth (if
possible made from microfibre), and a solution
of water and neutral, non-abrasive detergent. To
clean oily or persistent stains, use specific
products free from solvents and designed to
maintain the original appearance and colour of
the components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre cloth, if
necessary moistened with water. The use of paper
tissues is not recommended as these may leave
residues.

parts. Never use alcohol or alcohol-based
products. Before using a specific product for
cleaning interiors, make sure that it does
not contain alcohol and/or alcohol based
substances.
