KNEE BAG ON DRIVER’S SIDE fig. 14
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It consists of an instantly inflating cushion housed in a
compartment provided for the purpose under the lower
post guard at driver’s knee level, designed to give further
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.

REPLACING FUSES
GENERAL INFORMATION
Fuses protect the electric system: they blow in the event
of a failure or improper action on the system. Check the
condition of the corresponding fuse when a device does
not work: the filament A - fig. 37 must be intact. If it is
not, replace the blown fuse with another having the same
amperage (same colour).
B intact fuse
C fuse with damaged filament.
To replace a fuse, use the pliers D - fig. 37 attached to
the dashboard fuse box.
Refer to the tables on the following pages to identify the
protection fuse.
fig. 37L0E0085m
If the fuse blows again contact a Lancia
Dealership.
Never replace a blown fuse with metal wires
or other materials.
Never replace a fuse with another with a
higher amp rating; FIRE RISK.
If a general protection fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-FUSE) blows,
contact a Lancia Dealership.
Before changing a fuse, check that the igni-
tion key has been removed and that all the
other electric devices have been turned
off/disabled.
If a general protection fuse for safety systems
(airbag system, braking system), power unit
systems (engine system, gearbox system) ac-
tive suspension system (for versions/markets, where
provided) or steering system blows, contact a Lan-
cia Dealership.
