Magic Parking
unavailableA problem has been detected in the
Magic Parking system. Go to an au-
thorized service centre.
Try again
laterThe Magic Parking system has de-
tected a problem in one of the systems
required for its operation. If the prob-
lem persists, go to an authorized ser-
vice centre.
The steering
wheel has been
touchedThe driver has voluntarily or invol-
untarily touched the steering wheel.
The system deactivates and control of
the manoeuvre returns to the driver.
Magic Parking
OFFThe Magic Parking system is deacti-
vated for one of the following condi-
tions: Manoeuvre concluded, speed
limits exceeded, presence of a trail-
er, search stage too long, manoeuvre
stage too long, use of parking sensors
requested during the search stage, in-
correct vehicle trajectory as a result
of obstacles at the wheels.
Finish
manually❍The stage managed by the Magic
Parking is over, but the parking ma-
noeuvre still needs to be completed
by the driver.
❍The steering wheel was touched dur-
ing the manoeuvre.
❍Reverse gear was released during the
manoeuvre and the vehicle moved.
❍As a result of obstacles in the way of
the wheels the trajectory of the ve-
hicle was changed.
Trailer
presentThe activation of the Magic Parking
system was requested, but there is a
trailer present (the trailer plug is cor-
rectly inserted).
Magic Parking
disconnectedThe Magic Parking system has been
switched off following a request to ac-
tivate the parking sensors during the
search stage with the vehicle speed be-
low 15 km/h.
IMPORTANT Some text messages displayed by the instrument panel are accompanied by acoustic warnings.

PARKING SENSORS FRONT
AND REAR
(combined with Magic Parking)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The parking sensors provide the driver with distance in-
formation when approaching obstacles in front of and be-
hind the vehicle (versions with 4 front and 4 rear sensors)
and area always combined with the Magic Parking sys-
tem. The system therefore provides a further aid during
parking manoeuvres because it allows the identification
of obstacles outside of the driver’s field of vision. The dri-
ver is notified of the presence and distance of the obsta-
cle from the vehicle by an acoustic signal which varies de-
pending on the distance from the obstacle (as the distance
from the obstacle decreases the frequency of the acoustic
signal increases).SENSORS
In order to measure the distance of obstacles, the system
uses 4 sensors located in the front bumper (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) fig. 80 and 4 sensors lo-
cated in the rear bumper fig. 81.

The ultimate responsibility when parking
and carrying out other dangerous manoeu-
vres still rests with the driver. When parking, make
sure that no-one is standing in the area, especially
children or animals. Parking sensors are designed
to assist drivers: in all cases, you must always pay
the utmost attention during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even when carried out at low speed.
Version with 8 sensors
On the version with 4 front sensors and 4 rear sensors, the
system is activated when reverse gear is engaged or by
pressing the button fig. 8. If there has been a request to
activate the Magic Parking system, the front and rear sen-
sors are not automatically activated during the search for
a parking space, but can be activated by pressing the spe-
cial button (fig. 82) or by engaging reverse gear when
the speed is below around 15 km/h.
When reverse gear is released, the front and rear sensors
remain activated until a speed of around 15 km/h is ex-
ceeded to allow the parking manoeuvre to be completed.
The system can also be activated by pressing the button
fig. 82 in the centre panel: a warning light in the button
comes on when the system is activated.
The sensors are deactivated by pressing the button again
fig. 82 or when a speed of 15 km/h is exceeded: the warn-ing light in the button remains off when the system is not
activated.
When the sensors are activated, the system starts to pro-
duce acoustic signals from the front or rear buzzers as soon
as an obstacle is detected with the frequency increasing as
the obstacle gets closer.
When the obstacle is less than about 30 cm away, the
sound becomes continuous. Depending on the position of
the obstacle (in front or behind) the sound is produced by
the corresponding buzzers (front or rear). The obstacle
closest to the vehicle is signalled.
The acoustic signal stops immediately if the distance of
the obstacle increases. The sound cycle remains constant
if the distance measured by the centre sensors remains un-
changed, whilst if this situation occurs for the side sen-
sors, the signal is interrupted after about 3 seconds (for
example, to prevent signals in the case of manoeuvres
alongside walls).

BUZZER WARNINGS
The information concerning the presence and distance of
an obstacle from the vehicle is transmitted by means of
acoustic signals from 2 buzzers installed in the passen-
ger compartment:
❍a front buzzer warns of the presence of obstacles at the
front and a buzzer located at the rear warns of the pres-
ence of obstacles at the rear. This notifies the driver of the
direction (front/rear) of the obstacles.
Operation is automatically activated when reverse gear
is engaged.
The acoustic signal:
❍increases as the distance between the car and the ob-
stacle decreases;
❍becomes continuous when the distance between the car
and the obstacle is less than 30 cm and stops immediate-
ly if the distance increases;
❍remains constant if the distance between the vehicle
and the obstacle remains unchanged, whilst if this situa-
tion occurs for the side sensors, the signal is interrupted
after about 3 seconds, for example, to prevent signals in
the case of manoeuvres alongside walls.SENSOR OPERATING RANGE
The sensors allow the system to check the front part (ver-
sion with 8 sensors) and rear part of the vehicle.
Their position covers the middle and side areas of the front
and rear of the vehicle.
If an obstacle is located in a middle area, it is detected
when the distance is less than about 0.9 m (front) and 1.30
m (rear).The sensor must be clean of mud, dirt, snow or
ice in order for the system to work. Take great
care when cleaning the sensors not to scratch
or damage them; avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths.
The sensors should be washed with clean water with
possibly some car shampoo added. In washing sta-
tions, clean the sensors quickly, keeping the steam
jet/high pressure washing nozzles at least 10 cm away
from the sensors.
Only have the bumpers repainted or any re-
touches to the paintwork in the area of the
sensors carried out by a Lancia Dealership.
If the paint is incorrectly applied this could ad-
versely affect the operation of the parking sensors.

136GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
If the obstacle is located at the side, it is detected at dis-
tances of less than 0.6 m.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is automatically deactivated
when the trailer electric plug is inserted in the car tow hook
socket. The sensors are automatically enabled again when
the trailer cable plug is removed.
IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the tow hook fitted when
there is no trailer, it is advisable to go to a Lancia Deal-
ership to have the system updated because the tow hook
could be detected as an obstacle by the centre sensors.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Either symbol
S(if the Magic Parking system is fitted),
or symbol
t(if the Magic Parking is not fitted) will light
up on the display in combination with a message or with
instrument panel warning light
èif parking sensor faults
are detected.
GENERAL WARNINGS
During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost attention to
any obstacles that could be located above or below the sen-
sors.
Under certain circumstances objects located in front of
or behind the vehicle may not be detected and could there-
fore cause damage to the vehicle or be damaged them-
selves.The following conditions may influence the performance
of the parking sensor system:
❍Reduced sensor sensitivity and reduced parking aid
system performance could be caused by the presence of
the following on the surface of the sensors: ice, snow, mud,
multiple layers of paint.
❍The sensors detect objects that are not there (“echo dis-
turbance”) caused by mechanical disturbances, for ex-
ample: washing the car, rain (extreme wind conditions),
hail.
❍The signals sent by the sensors can also be altered by
the presence of ultrasound devices (e.g. pneumatic brake
systems or pneumatic drills) near the car.
❍The performance of the parking assistance system may
also be affected by the position of the sensors. For ex-
ample, if the geometry is altered (as a result of wear of the
shock absorbers, suspension) or the tyres are changed, the
vehicle is too heavily laden, specific tuning is carried out
that lowers the vehicle.
❍The detection of obstacles at the top part of the vehi-
cle may not be guaranteed because the system detects ob-
stacles that could cause an impact with the vehicle in the
bottom part.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for reducing petrol engine emissions are the
following:
❍three-way catalytic converter;
❍Lambda sensors;
❍fuel evaporation control system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test, with
one or more spark plugs disconnected.
The devices for reducing diesel fuel engine emissions are
the following:
❍oxidising catalytic converter;
❍exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.).
❍diesel particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/markets,
where provided).
The catalytic converter reaches high temper-
atures during operation. Do not park on
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flam-
mable material: fire risk.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, inte-
gral with the exhaust system, that physically traps par-
ticulate present in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines. The
diesel particular filter has been adopted to almost totally
eliminate particulate in compliance with current / future
regulations. During normal use of the car, the engine man-
agement control unit records a set of data (e.g.: travel time,
type of route, temperatures reached, etc.) and it will then
calculate the amount of particulate trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should be
regenerated (cleaned) at regular intervals by burning car-
bon particles. The regeneration procedure is controlled au-
tomatically by the engine management control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and car use conditions. Dur-
ing the regeneration procedure, the following situations
may occur: limited increase of idle speed, activation of
electric fan, limited increase of smoke, high temperatures
at the exhaust. These are not faults; they do not impair
car performance or damage the environment. If the ded-
icated warning message is displayed, refer to the section
“Instrument panel warning lights” in this chapter.
