ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED BY
THE OWNER
If after buying the car, you decide to
install electrical accessories that re-
quire a permanent electric supply
(sound system, satellite antitheft sys-
tem, etc.) or accessories that in any
case burden the electric supply, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership, whose qual-
ified personnel, besides suggesting the
most suitable devices belonging to
Lineaccessori Lancia, will also evalu-
ate the overall electric absorption,
checking whether the car’s electric
system is able to withstand the load
required, or whether it needs to be in-
tegrated with a more powerful bat-
tery. SET-UP FOR MOBILE PHONE
(where provided)
The combined mobile phone and CD
or CD MP3 sound system set-up con-
sists of:
❒dual function antenna (sound sys-
tem + mobile telephone 900/1800
MHz), located on the roof of the
car;
❒connecting wires to the dual func-
tion antenna and wiring with 10-
way connector.
The connector is located between the
steering column and the central box.
The Customer is responsi-
ble for the purchasing of the
hands-free kit as it must be
compatible with his/her
own mobile phone. It is advisable to
install the microphone near to the
front light.
The maximum power ap-
plicable to the antenna is
20W.
WARNING
For the installation of the
mobile phone and its con-
nection to the set-up existing in the
car, contact a Lancia Dealership so
as to provide for any possible
problems that could damage the
safety of the car.
WARNING
Be very careful when fit-
ting non-standard addi-
tional spoilers, light alloy wheels
or wheel caps: they could reduce
brake ventilation and consequently
brake efficiency in the case of re-
peated, violent braking or on long
downhill roads. Ensure that noth-
ing (e.g. rubber mats) obstructs the
stroke of the pedals.

IMPORTANT When making ma-
noeuvres requiring maximum steering
efforts, the steering wheel may be-
come hard to turn; this is normal and
is due to the intervention of the steer-
ing control electric motor overheating
protection system. No repairs are,
therefore, required. The power steer-
ing system will return to normal op-
eration the next time the car is used.
fig. 119L0D0419m
Under no circumstances
should after-market oper-
ations involving steering system or
steering column modifications (e.g.:
installation of anti-theft device) be
carried out, because they could
badly affect performance and
safety, cause the lapse of the war-
ranty and also result in car non-
compliance with homologation re-
quirements.
WARNING
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Any failure of the power steering is in-
dicated by instrument panel warning
light
gcoming on together with the
message on the multifunction display
(see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”).
In the event of a failure of the electric
power steering, the car continues in
any case to be manoeuvrable with
mechanical steering so that it can be
taken soon as possible to a Lancia
Dealership.
Before servicing the car,
switch off the engine and
remove the key from the ignition
device, activating the steering lock,
especially when car wheels do not
touch the ground. If this is not pos-
sible (if the key must be on MAR or
the engine must be running), re-
move the main fuse which protects
the electric power steering.

CAR REFUELLING
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the
fuel filler is too small to introduce the
beak of a leaded petrol pump. The
petrol octane rating (RON) must not
be lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst
leads to harmful exhaust emissions,
thus contributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amounts or in an emer-
gency, as this would damage the cat-
alyst beyond repair. GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost
care to avoid obstacles that may
be located above or below the
sensors.
❒Objects located near the rear of
the car, under certain circum-
stances are not detected and could
therefore cause damage to the car
or be damaged.
❒Indications sent by the sensors
can be altered by dirt, snow or ice
deposited on the sensors or by ul-
trasound systems (e.g.: truck
pneumatic brakes or pneumatic
hammers) nearby the car. To guarantee the effective
operation of the system, the
sensors must be kept clean
at all times. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the sensors
while cleaning them. Avoid using
dry, rough or hard cloths. Clean the
sensors with clean water with the
addition of car shampoo if neces-
sary. At car wash centres that use
steam or high pressure water jets,
clean the sensors quickly keeping the
nozzle more than 10 cm away.
The driver is, however, al-
ways held responsible for
parking and other dangerous ma-
noeuvres. When carrying out this
manoeuvre, ensure that there are
no people, animals or object within
the manoeuvring area. Parking
sensors are designed to assist dri-
vers: in all cases, you must always
pay the utmost attention during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres.

LOAD LIMITERS
To increase passenger’s safety in the
event of an accident, the front seat
belt reels feature a load limiter which
allows controlled sag in such a way as
to dose the force acting on the chest
and shoulders during the belt re-
straining action in case of front crash.GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respect-
ing (and ensuring that all the other
car passengers also respect) the local
laws in force regarding the use of seat
belts. Always fasten the seat belts be-
fore starting off.
Seat belts must also be used by preg-
nant women: wearing the seat belt
significantly reduces the risk for both
the expectant mother and the baby in
the event of an accident.
Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes above the hips and
under the abdomen (see fig. 7).
fig. 7L0D0133m
fig. 8L0D0134m
fig. 9L0D0135m
The belt must not be
twisted. The upper part
must cross the shoulder and the
chest diagonally. The lower part
must adhere to the passenger’s hips
and not to the abdomen. Do not use
devices (clips, clamps, etc.) that pre-
vent the belts from being snug to the
passengers’ body.
WARNING
Under no circumstances
should the seat belt and
pretensioner components be re-
moved or tampered with. All in-
terventions must be performed by
qualified and authorised personnel
only. Always go to a Lancia Deal-
ership.
WARNING
Maximum protection is ob-
tained if the backrest is
kept straight: the passenger’s back
must lean against the backrest and
the seat belt must be tight on the
chest and hips. Always fasten the
seat belts on both the front and the
rear seats. Travelling without seat
belts fastened increases the risk of
serious injuries or even death in the
event of a crash.

GROUP 0 and 0+ fig. 10
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried
facing backwards on a cradle seat,
which supports the head, thus not in-
ducing stresses on the baby’s neck in
the event of sharp decelerations.
Cradle seats must be withheld using
the car seat belts. To restrain the baby
use the seat belts fitted in the child
seat.GROUP 1 fig. 11
Children from 9 kg to 18 kg in weight
can be carried facing forwards if the
child seat is fitted with a front cush-
ion, through which the car seat belt
restrains both child and seat.

The figure is indicative for assembly purposes only. Refer to the
instructions supplied with the child seat.
WARNING
Some child restraint systems for weight group 0 and 1 have a rear
attachment and seat belts for securing the child. Due to their
weight, they may be dangerous if incorrectly mounted (e.g. if fastened to
the car seat belts placing a cushion in between). Follow the assembly in-
structions carefully.
WARNING
GROUP 2 fig. 12
Children from 15 to 25 kg can be se-
cured using the car seat belts directly.
The child seat is only needed to posi-
tion the child correctly with respect to
the belts so that the diagonal section
crosses the child’s chest and never the
neck and is snug on the hips and not
the abdomen.
The figure is indicative for
assembly purposes only.
Refer to the instructions supplied
with the child seat.
