System activation is signalled by a message on the recon-
figurable multifunctional display.
When the system is deactivated, the LED on the ASR OFF
button turns on and a message appears on the reconfig-
urable multifunctional display. If the ASR system is de-
activated when travelling, it is automatically turned on by
the system the next time the vehicle is started.
It may be useful to switch off the ASR system when dri-
ving on snow-covered roads with snow chains fitted: in
these conditions, slipping of the drive wheels during take-
off provides better traction.
TTC system
(Electronic self-locking differential)
THIS system is an integral part of the ASR system, which
cuts in when cornering to provide torque to the outside
wheel and braking action to the inside wheel.
In this way the effect of a self-locking differential is sim-
ulated, increasing the sportiness of the car and improv-
ing cornering.ABS SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the braking system, which pre-
vents the wheels from locking or slipping regardless of road
surface conditions and braking intensity, giving the best
control during emergency braking.
The system is completed by EBD (Electronic Braking
Force Distribution), which distributes the braking action
between front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To achieve maximum efficiency of the brak-
ing system, a settlement period of about 500 km is re-
quired: during this time, avoid sudden, repeated and pro-
longed braking.

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) pro-
vides a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related com-
ponents. It also alerts the driver, by turning on the
U
warning light on the instrument panel together with a mes-
sage on the reconfigurable multifunctional display, when
these components are no longer in peak condition (see “In-
strument panel warning lights”).
The objective is:
❍to keep system efficiency under control;
❍to signal a fault which causes emission levels to in-
crease;
❍to signal the need to replace deteriorated components.
The system also has a diagnostic connector that can be in-
terfaced with appropriate tools, which makes it possible
to read the error codes stored in the control unit together
with a series of specific parameters for engine operation
and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by the traffic police.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the problem, to check the
system completely, Lancia Dealerships are obliged to run
a bench test and, if necessary, road tests which may also
call for a long journey.
Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as pos-
sible if warning light
Ueither does not light
up when the key is turned to MAR or if,
while travelling, the warning light comes on either
steadily or blinking (along with a message on the
reconfigurable multifunctional display). The op-
eration of warning light
Umay be checked by the
traffic police using specific devices. Respect the
laws in force in the country where you are driving.
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING SYSTEM
This is an electrically controlled power steering system
called “Dualdrive”. It is only operational with the ignition
key turned to MAR and the engine running; it can be cus-
tomised by the driver according to the driving conditions.
IMPORTANT If the ignition key is turned very quickly,
it may take 1-2 seconds before full power steering func-
tionality can be achieved.

❍Identification: if the system identifies a free parking
space that is a suitable size for the vehicle, it signals its
presence and indicates the actions required for starting the
manoeuvre.
❍Manoeuvre: the driver is asked to engage reverse gear
and leave the steering wheel and manage the accelerator,
brake and clutch (in the case of manual transmission) or
accelerator and brake (in the case of automatic transmis-
sion). The system manages the steering wheel automat-
ically when reverse gear is engaged in the parking posi-
tion.
It suggests that the manoeuvre be concluded in reverse
gear (if the conditions permit) when the continuous sound
of the buzzer for the rear sensors is heard.
IMPORTANT The MANOEUVRE stage in the system log-
ic is deactivated after about 3 mins if the parking ma-
noeuvre has not been completed.❍Conclusion: If parking space is big enough, the ma-
noeuvre is completed by the system in one stage and the
positioning of the vehicle does not require any further in-
tervention on behalf of the driver. If further corrective
manoeuvres are required, the system returns control to the
driver who must complete the manoeuvre manually.
IMPORTANT Steering will be realigned after reversing
when reverse gear is disengaged. The driver must com-
plete the manoeuvre by hand.
The operation of the parking assistance is
based on different components:
❍front and rear parking sensors;
❍side sensors;
❍electric steering;
❍wheels and braking system;
❍instrument panel.
It is necessary to bear in mind that a malfunction
in one of these systems could compromise the op-
eration of the Magic Parking system.
