Should it be necessary to carry a child on the
passenger side front seat in a rear facing
child restraint system, the passenger side
front airbag and side bag (for versions/markets,
where provided) must be deactivated through the
Setup menu. Deactivation should be verified by
checking whether the warning light is switched on
in the instrument panel. Move the passenger’s seat
as far back as possible to avoid contact between the
child restraint system and the dashboard.
Do not move the front or rear seat if a child
is seated on it or on the dedicated child re-
straint system.
On the sun visor there is a label with suitable
symbols to remind you that it is compulsory to
deactivate the airbag if a rear facing child re-
straint system is fitted. Always comply with the in-
structions on the passenger’s side sun visor (see the
“Front Airbags” paragraph).In Europe the characteristics of children restraint systems
are ruled by the regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight range
Group 0 up to 10 kg
Group 0+ up to 13 kg
Group 1 9-18 kg
Group 2 15-25 kg
Group 3 22-36 kg
All restraint devices must bear the type-approval data
along with the control mark on a fixed label which must
never be removed in any circumstances. Lineaccessori
Lancia includes child restraint systems for each weight
group. These devices are recommended, having been
specifically designed for Lancia cars.

Main instructions for carrying children safely:
❍Install the child restraint systems on the rear seat,
which is the most protected position in the event of
an accident.
❍ Keep children in rear facing restraint systems for as
long as possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
❍ Should a rear facing child restraint system be installed
on the rear seats, it is advisable to position it as far for-
ward as the position of the front seat allows.
❍ If the front passenger’s airbag is deactivated always
check that the dedicated warning light is permanent-
ly switched on on the instrument panel to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.
❍ Carefully follow the instructions supplied with the child
restraint system itself. Keep the instructions in the car
along with the other documents and this handbook.
Do not use second-hand child restraint systems with-
out instructions. ❍
Only one child is to be strapped to each retaining sys-
tem; never use it to transport two children at once.
❍ Always check that the seat belts do not interfere with
the child’s throat.
❍ Always check that the seat belt is well fastened by
pulling on it.
❍ While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrectly or
unfasten the belts.
❍ Never allow a child to put the belt’s diagonal section
under an arm or behind their back.
❍ Never carry children on your lap, even newborns. No-
one can restrain a child in the event of an accident.
❍ In the event of an accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one.
Fit the child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.

KNEE BAG ON DRIVER’S SIDE fig. 14
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It consists of an instantly inflating cushion housed in a
compartment provided for the purpose under the lower
post guard at driver’s knee level, designed to give further
protection in the event of frontal impact.
Manual deactivation of passenger
front airbag and side bag
Should it be absolutely necessary to carry a child on the
front seat, the passenger front airbags and side bags can
be deactivated.
The instrument panel
“warning light will stay on con-
stantly until the passenger front airbag and the Side Bag
are reactivated.
IMPORTANT To deactivate the passenger’s front airbag
and the side bags (for versions/markets, where provided),
refer to “Multifunction display” and “Reconfigurable mul-
tifunction display” paragraphs in the “Knowing your car”
chapter.
fig. 14L0E0069m
When there is an active passenger airbag, DO
NOT install rear facing child restraint sys-
tems on the front seat. Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could cause fatal in-
juries to the child regardless of the severity
of the impact. Therefore, always deactivate the pas-
senger airbag when a rear facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passenger seat. The
front passenger seat must also be positioned back
as far as possible in order to avoid the child re-
straint system from coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system has been
removed.

Proceed as follows:
❍engage the handbrake;
❍ put the gear lever into neutral;
❍ turn the ignition key to MAR: the
mandYwarn-
ing lights on the instrument panel will turn on;
❍ wait for the warning lights
Yandmto turn off. The
hotter the engine is, the quicker this will happen;
❍ fully depress the clutch pedal without operating the ac-
celerator;
❍ turn the ignition key to AVV as soon as the
mwarn-
ing light goes out. Waiting too long will waste the heat-
ing work carried out by the glow plugs.
Release the key as soon as the engine starts. IMPORTANT With cold engine, the accelerator pedal shall
be completely released while turning the ignition key to
AV V.
If the engine does not start at the first attempt, turn the
ignition key to STOP again before repeating the procedure.
If instrument panel
Ywarning light remains lit when the
ignition key is turned to MAR, turn the key to STOP and
then back to MAR; if the warning light remains lit, try the
other keys provided with the vehicle. Contact a Lancia Deal-
ership if you still cannot start the engine.
The mwarning light will flash for 60 sec-
onds after starting or during prolonged
cranking to indicate a fault with the glow
plug pre-heating system. Use the car normally if the
engine starts and go to a Lancia Dealership as soon
as possible.

HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located between the front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the handbrake, until the
car is braked.
The car should be braked after a few clicks
of the lever; if it is not, contact a Lancia Deal-
ership to have it adjusted.
When the handbrake is on and the ignition key is at MAR,
the instrument panel xwarning light will come on.
Proceed as follows to release the handbrake:
❍ slightly lift the lever and press release button A - fig. 1;
❍ keep button A pressed and lower the lever. The x
warning light on the instrument panel turns off.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation
to prevent the car from moving accidentally.
PARKING
Proceed as follows:
❍ stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❍ engage a gear (on a slope, engage first gear if the car
is facing uphill or reverse if it is facing downhill) and
leave the wheels steered.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone if the car is
parked on a steep slope.
Do not leave the ignition key on MAR to avoid draining
the battery. Always remove the key when you leave the
car.
Never leave children unattended in the car. Always remove
the ignition key when leaving the car and take it out with
you.

in the instrument panel. Anyway, it must never exceed 2 years.
If the car is mainly used in towns and cities, change the engine oil and\
filter every year.
(2) Areas that are not dusty: advised maximum mileage 120,000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt must be replaced every 6 y ears.
Dusty areas and/or demanding use of the car (cold climates, town use, long peri\
ods of idling): advised maximum mileage 60,000 k m. Regardless of the mileage,
the belt must be replaced every 4 years.
(3) If the car runs on fuel with quality below the relevant European specification, this filter must be replaced every 20,000 km
(4) If the car is used in dusty areas, this cleaner must be replaced every 20,000 km.

256MAINTENANCE AND CARE
INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped under the mats
(due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which
could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the
inside of the car. The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during cleaning
may cause a fire.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: these
could explode. Aerosol cans must not be ex-
posed to temperatures exceeding 50°C. When
the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the temperature
inside can greatly exceed this value.
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution of
water and neutral detergent.
PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts with a moist cloth and
a solution of water and non-abrasive mild soap. Use spe-
cific products for cleaning plastic, without solvents and
specifically designed to prevent damage to the appearance
and colour of the treated parts, to remove grease and tough
stains.
IMPORTANT Do not use alcohol, petrols or derivatives to
clean the instrument panel lens.
