+distribution between footwell diffusers and windscreen/front side window vents. This type of distribution achieves
effective heating of the passenger compartment and prevents the windows from misting up.
B - Activation/deactivation of the MAX-DEF function (fast front window defrosting/demisting).
C - Climate control system compressor activation/deactivation.
D - Internal air recirculation activation/deactivation button.
E - AUTO function activation (climate control system automatic operation).
F - heated rear window on/off.
G - Fan speed adjustment knob.
H - Climate control on/off.
I/L - Adjustment of temperature inside the passenger compartment.
NOTEIn particularly severe climate conditions it is recommended to limit the use of the Stop/Start function to prevent the
compressor from continuously switching on and off, with consequent rapid misting of the windows and accumulation of
humidity with unpleasant smells in the passenger compartment.
WARNING
19)It is advisable not to use the internal air recirculation function when the outside temperature is low, because the windows could mist
rapidly.
WARNING
2)The system uses R134a coolant which does not pollute the environment in the event of accidental leakage. Never use R12 fluid, which is
not compatible with the system components.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.
To deactivate the function press the
button again.
IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder: this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating, so no
repair is required. When the car is
used again later on, the power steering
will work normally.
ECO FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Press the ECO button fig. 28 for at least
5 seconds to activate the function.When the ECO function is activated,
the car is set for city driving,
characterised by less effort on the
steering wheel (Dualdrive system on)
and reduced fuel consumption.
When this function is activated, the
word ECO on the display will light up on
some versions.
This function stays in the memory, so
when the vehicle is started again,
the system keeps the setting it had
before the engine was stopped. Press
the ECO button again to deactivate
the function and restore the normal
driving setting.
WARNING
22)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in the car not
meeting type-approval requirements.
23)Before starting any servicing operation,
stop the engine and remove the key from
the ignition switch to operate the steering
lock, particularly when the wheels do
not touch the ground. If this is not possible
(for example if the key needs to be turned
to MAR or the engine must be running),
remove the main fuse that protects the
electric power steering.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning light What it means
GLOW PLUG HEATING/GLOW PLUG HEATING FAILURE (diesel versions)
Glow plugs
This warning light switches on when the key is turned to MAR. It will switch off as soon as the heater plugs
have reached a preset temperature.
The engine can be started as soon as the warning light switches off.
IMPORTANT At moderate or high ambient temperatures the warning light may stay on for an extremely
short time.
Glow plug preheating failure
The warning light flashes (together with a dedicated message and a symbol on the display on some
versions) to indicate a failure in the glow plugs preheating system.
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have the fault fixed as soon as possible.
WATER IN DIESEL FILTER (diesel versions)
The warning light remains on constantly when driving (together with a dedicated message and a symbol on
the display on some versions), to indicate the presence of water in the diesel fuel filter.
32)
WARNING
32)The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If thewarning light switches on, contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible for bleeding. If this problem is indicated immediately after
refueling, water may have entered the fuel tank. In this case, immediately turn off the engine and contact your Lancia Dealership.

show the symbol followed by the number of kilometres/miles until the car must be
serviced. This is displayed automatically, with ignition key at MAR-ON, 2000 km (or
equivalent value in miles) before servicing or, where provided, 30 days before servicing. It is
also displayed each time the key is turned to MAR-ON or, for versions/markets, where
provided, every 200 km (or equivalent value in miles).
Contact a Lancia Dealership where the operations of the "Scheduled Servicing Plan" will
be performed and the message will be reset.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
WARNING
76)The pretensioner may be used only
once. Contact a Lancia Dealership to have
it replaced after it has been deployed.
77)For maximum safety, keep the backrest
upright, lean back into it and make sure
the seat belt fits closely across your chest
and pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts
on both the front and the rear seats!
Travelling without wearing seat belts will
increase the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
78)Removing or tampering with seat belt
and pretensioner components is strictly
prohibited. Any intervention on these
components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.
Always go to a Lancia Dealership.
79)If the belt has been sharply pulled, for
example as the result of an accident,
the seat belt, together with the anchoring
devices, the anchoring device fixing screws
and the pretensioner must be completely
replaced. Even if the belt does not present
any exterior signs of wear or damage, it
may have lost its restraining properties.
WARNING
33)Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioner may cause
damage or make it deploy. Contact a
Lancia Dealership should intervention be
necessary on these components.
CHILD PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
80) 81) 82) 83)
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated
and wearing adequate restraint
systems, including newborn and other
children! This prescription is
compulsory in all EC countries
according to EC Directive 2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 1.50
metres and up to 12 years must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that the
rear seats offer greater safety for
children.
Compared with an adult, a child's head
is larger and heavier in proportion to
their body and the child's muscular and
bone structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are
necessary to reduce as much as
possible the risk of injuries in the event
of an accident, braking or sudden
manoeuvre.
