Replacing the remote control cover fig. 13
To replace the remote control cover, follow the procedure
shown in the diagram.ALARM (where provided)
The alarm, which is provided in addition to the remote
control functions described previously, is controlled by a
receiver located under the dashboard, near the fuse box.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm trips in the following cases:
when a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened ille-
gally (perimeter protection);
when the ignition system is operated (ignition key ro-
tated to MAR);
when the battery cables are cut;
when someone is moving inside the passenger com-
partment (volume-sensing protection);
when the vehicle is lifted or tilted.
According to the market, when the alarm is tripped this
operates the alarm siren and direction indicators (for ap-
proximately 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and the number
of cycles depend on the sales market.
There are a maximum number of acoustic/visual cycles.
When this is reached the system returns to normal oper-
ation.
The volume sensing and anti-tilt protection can be ex-
cluded by adjusting the dedicated control on the front
courtesy light (see “volume sensing/anti-tilt protection”).

Selecting air distribution B-fig. 26
Press one or more buttons
 / / ˙to manually select
one of the 7 possible air distribution settings:
Air flow to the windscreen and front side window
vents to demist/defrost them.
Air flow to the front and rear foot well vents. This
distribution setting rapidly heats the passenger
compartment.

˙Air flow distribution between front/rear vents,
dashboard central/side vents, rear vent, wind-
screen and front side windows demisting vents.

Air flow distribution between foot well vents and
windscreen and front side window demist-
ing/defrosting vents. This distribution setting al-
lows adequate warming of the passenger compart-
ment and prevents the windows from misting up.
˙
Air flow distribution between foot well vents (hot-
ter air) and central/side dashboard vents and rear
vent (cooler air).
˙Air flow distribution between central/side dash-
board vents, rear vent and windscreen and front
side window demisting/defrosting vents. This dis-
tribution setting allows adequate ventilation of the
passenger compartment and prevents the windows
from misting up.

gaged with windscreen wiper active, the rear window wiper
automatically turns on in slow continuous mode.
It stops when the reverse gear is disengaged.
Do not use the windscreen or rearscreen
wiper to remove layers of snow or ice from
the windscreen. In such conditions, the wind-
screen wiper may be subjected to excessive stress
and the motor protection which prevents operation
for a few seconds may trip. If the issue persists, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.

LOCK/RELEASE FROM INSIDE fig. 52
From inside the vehicle (with the doors closed) press the
door locking/unlocking button A on the dashboard. If the
electrical system has failed, it is still possible to lock the
doors manually.
fig. 52L0E0043m
CHILD LOCK SYSTEM B-fig. 53
This system prevents the rear doors from being opened
from the inside.
This device can only be engaged with rear doors open:
position 1 - device engaged (door locked);
position 2 - device not engaged (door may be opened
from the inside).
The device stays on even if the doors are unlocked by the
central locking system.
IMPORTANT The rear doors cannot be opened from the
inside when the child-lock system is engaged.
After engaging the child lock on both rear
doors, check it is properly engaged by try-
ing to open a rear door using the internal
handle.
Always use this device when carrying chil-
dren.

IMPORTANT If the battery is disconnected or the pro-
tection fuse blows, the door opening/closing mechanism
must be reinitialised as follows:
close all the doors;
press button
Áon the key or door locking/unlocking
button
≈on the dashboard;

open the door but will only realign the door lock
knob. To open the door, the outside handle must be
used. The door central locking/unlocking button
≈is not disabled by the engagement of the emer-
gency lock.
ELECTRIC WINDOWS
These operate when the ignition key is turned to MAR and
for about 2 minutes after turning the key to STOP or re-
moving it.

new driving lane. This temporary deactivation will be sig-
nalled to the driver by the LED in the button flashing and
by the symbol
ein the amber coloured panel in the in-
strument panel display also flashing.
SWITCHING OFF THE SYSTEM
Manual method
The system can be deactivated by pressing button A-fig.
70 on the dashboard.
Confirmation of system deactivation is signalled by the
LED on the button going out and a message 1-fig. 71 ap-
pearing on the display.
Automatic method
The system can be deactivated automatically (if the sys-
tem is required it will therefore need to be reactivated).
The driver is advised that the system has been turned off au-
tomatically by three consecutive acoustic signals and the mes-
sage 1 – fig. 71 in the instrument panel display after the fol-
lowing situations:
the driver does not keep his hands on the steering wheel
(indication 2-fig. 71 is shown on the instrument pan-
el and a buzzer sounds until the driver places his hands
back on the wheel. This is considered a dangerous con-
dition and the system is automatically deactivated);
triggering of the vehicle safety systems (ABS, ESP,
ASR, DST and TTC).SYSTEM FAILURE
In the event of a malfunction, the system reports the fault
via a message 3-fig. 71 appearing on the display and a
buzzer sounding.
IMPORTANT
The driving advisor is unable to operate following a malfunc-
tion in any of the following safety systems: ABS, ESP, ASR,
DST and TTC.
In the presence of indistinct, overlapping or
missing lane markings, the lane assistance
function is unable to aid the driver and the
system will be deactivated.
The driving advisor is not an automatic dri-
ving system and cannot replace the driver in
controlling the vehicle trajectory. The driver
is personally responsible for maintaining a suitable
level of concentration as traffic and road conditions
require, and for safely controlling the vehicle’s tra-
jectory.
The operation of the lane assistance function may be com-
promised by adverse visibility conditions (rain, fog, snow),
extreme lighting conditions (solar glare, darkness) or dirt
or damage, even partial, to the windscreen in the area
around the video camera.
The area of the windscreen by the TV camera should not
be partly or totally obscured by objects (e.g. stickers, pro-
tective film, etc.)
