2015 Lancia Ypsilon low beam

When the lights have been activated automatically
and are then switched off by the sensor, the
dipped beam headlights are switched off first,
followed by the side lights a few seconds later. If
the sensor is activated but is malfunctioning,
the side lights and dipped beam headlights are
switched on irrespective of the outside light level
and the sensor failure is indicated on the
instrument panel display. It is also possible to
deactivate the sensor and switch on the side lights
and dipped beam headlights.
IMPORTANT The sensor is unable to detect the
presence of fog. Under these circumstances, these
lights are therefore turned on manually.
MAIN BEAM HEADLIGHTS
To activate the main beam headlights, with ring
nut at
, pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel. The warning light
switches on in the
instrument panel.
When the stalk is pulled towards the steering
wheel again, the lights deactivate, the dipped
headlights reactivate and the
warning light
switches off.
It is not possible to switch on the main beam
headlights in fixed mode if the automatic lighting
control system is active.FLASHING
You can flash the headlights by pulling the stalk
towards the wheel (unstable position). The
warning light will come on in the instrument
panel.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
Bring the stalk to the (stable) position:
upwards:right-hand direction indicator
activation;
downwards:left-hand direction indicator
activation.
Warning light
orshould flash in the
instrument panel. The indicators switch off
automatically when the steering wheel is
straightened.
Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change, put the left
stalk in the unstable position for less than half a
second.
The direction indicator on the side selected will be
activated for 5 flashes and then go out
automatically.

GENERAL WARNINGS
❒The ultimate responsibility when parking is
always the drivers. During these manoeuvres,
always make sure that no people, animals
or objects are within the manoeuvring area. The
Magic Parking system (like parking sensors) is
designed to assist drivers: in all cases, you
must always pay the utmost attention during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even when
these are carried out a low speed:
❒If the sensors undergo shocks influencing their
position, the system operation could be strongly
degraded.
❒If the sensors are dirty, covered by snow, ice or
mud or are repainted compared to the original
conditions, the system operation could be
strongly degraded. It is vital that the sensors are
always clean in order for the system to work
properly. During cleaning make sure not to
scratch or damage them; avoid using dry or
rough cloths. The sensors should be washed
using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. In washing stations, clean
the sensors quickly, keeping the steam jet/high
pressure washing nozzles at least 10 cm away
from the sensors.
❒Ultrasonic sound sources (e.g. pneumatic brakes
of trucks or air drills) nearby could negatively
influence the sensor performance.❒Sensors may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for
example while washing the car, in the case of
rain, strong wind, hail.
❒The sensors might not detect objects of a
particular shape or made from particular
materials (very thin poles, trailer beams, panels,
nets, bushes, parking deterrents, rubbish bins,
motor vehicles, etc.). Always take great care
to check that the car and its path are actually
compatible with the parking area identified
by the system.
❒The use of (one or more) tyres or wheels of a
different size to those at the time the car was
purchased could affect the operation of the
system.
❒If the battery is disconnected or is nearly flat,
the Magic Parking system will not be available
until the vehicle is driven for a few hundred
metres on a curved path to initialise the system.
❒If a trailer is fitted (with the plug correctly
inserted) the Magic Parking system will
automatically be disabled.
❒If the Magic Parking system is in "search in
progress" mode, the system could incorrectly
identify a parking space and carry out the
manoeuvre (e.g. by a junction, carriage track,
roads crossing the direction of travel, etc.)
❒In the case of parking manoeuvres on roads on a
gradient, the performance of the system could
be inferior and it may deactivate.
