IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electrical
devices (e.g. sound system, power
windows, etc.) work regularly.
❒MAR: driving position. All electri-
cal devices work regularly.
❒AV V: engine starting (unstable po-
sition).
The ignition switch is fitted with an
electronic safety system that turns the
ignition key back to position STOPif
the engine will not start, before re-
peating the starting operation.
Under no circumstances
should aftermarket works
be carried out, because they may
cause tampering with the driving
system or steering column (e.g. in-
stallation of anti-theft device), which
may lead to reduced system perfor-
mances and loss of the warranty as
well as safety-specific problems and
non-compliance with the car type-
approval.
WARNING
fig. 21L0D0021m
If the ignition system is
tampered with (e.g. after an
attempted theft), address a Lancia
Dealership to have the system
checked before starting off.
WARNING
Always remove the key
from the car when leaving
it in order to prevent accidental en-
gagement of the controls. Remem-
ber to engage the handbrake. En-
gage first gear if the car is parked
uphill or reverse if the car is parked
downhill. Never leave children un-
attended in the car.

ABS SYSTEM
The car is fitted with an ABS braking
system, which prevents the wheels
from locking when braking, makes
the most of road grip and gives the
best control when emergency braking
under difficult road conditions.
The system is completed by EBD
(Electronic Braking Force Distribu-
tion), which distributes the braking
action between front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To achieve maximum
efficiency of the braking system, a
running in period of about 500 km is
required: during this time, avoid sud-
den, repeated and prolonged braking.SYSTEM INTERVENTION
Intervention of the ABS is detected by
a slight pulsing of the brake pedal ac-
companied by noise: such an event in-
dicates that you need to adjust your
speed to the type of road on which
you are travelling.
When the ABS intervenes it means
that you are approaching the grip
limit between tyres and road: slow
down to exploit all the available grip.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
ABS failure
It is indicated by the turning on of
warning light >on the instrument
panel together with the message
(where provided) shown on the re-
configurable multifunctional display
(see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”).
In the case, the braking system will
work as normal without the extra po-
tentials offered by the ABS system.
Drive carefully to the nearest Lancia
Dealership to have the system
checked.When the ABS intervenes it
means that you are ap-
proaching the grip limit between
tyres and road: it is necessary to
slow down to adjust the speed ac-
cording to available grip.
WARNING
The ABS exploits the tyre
road grip to the full, but it
cannot improve it; you should there-
fore exercise great caution when dri-
ving on slippery surfaces without
taking unnecessary risks.

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On
Board Diagnosis) allows continuous
diagnosis of the components of the car
correlated with emissions.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on
the warning light
Uon the instru-
ment panel (together with relevant
message on the multifunction display,
where provided) (see section “Warn-
ing lights and messages”), when these
components are no longer in peak
conditions.
The objective is:
❒to keep the system efficiency un-
der control;
❒to warn when a fault causes emis-
sion levels to increase;
❒to signal the need to replace worn
components. EBD failure
EBD failure is indicated by the turn-
ing on warning lights >andxon
the instrument panel, together with
the message (where provided) shown
on the multifunctional display (see
section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”).
In this case, the rear wheels may sud-
denly lock and the car may swerve.
Drive carefully to the nearest Lancia
Dealership to have the system
checked.
When the ABS intervenes,
a slight pulsing of the brake
pedal is felt. Do not lessen the pres-
sure of your foot on the pedal; main-
tain pressure on the brake without
hesitation; this will ensure that you
stop in the shortest possible space al-
lowed by the road conditions.
WARNING
If the warning lightxon
the instrument panel goes
on (and a message, were provided,
is shown in the multifunctional dis-
play), stop the car immediately and
contact your nearest Lancia Dealer-
ship. Leakage of hydraulic fluid
from the braking system will com-
promise functionality of the braking
system, either of the conventional
type or with ABS.

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 responsible
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 prob-
lems that could damage the safety of
the car.
WARNING
Be very careful when fitting
non-standard additional
spoilers, light alloy wheels or wheel
caps: they could reduce brake ven-
tilation and consequently brake ef-
ficiency in the case of repeated, vio-
lent braking or on long downhill
roads. Ensure that nothing (e.g. rub-
ber mats) obstructs the stroke of the
pedals.

Detection distances
The central radius of action varies ac-
cording to the engine/ trim of the car:
The recognition area is equivalent to
140 cm, while for small obstacles (or
in the case of parking bollards which
have a rounded shape) it is equivalent
to 70 cm. The lateral radius of action
has a recognition area of 60 cm.
If several obstacles are detected, the
control unit indicates the nearest one.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
See “Warning lights and messages”
section.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The system is programmed to deacti-
vate automatically when the trailer
electric cable plug is fitted into the car
tow hook socket.
Sensors are reactivated on removing
the trailer cable plug. BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an
intermittent acoustic signal is auto-
matically activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒becomes louder as the reduction of
distance between the car and the
obstacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the dis-
tance between the car and the ob-
stacle is less than 30 cm and stops
immediately if the distance in-
creases;
❒iremains constant if the distance
between vehicle and obstacle re-
mains unvaried; if this situation
concerns the side sensors, the
buzzer will stop after about 3 sec-
onds to avoid, for example, warn-
ing indications in the event of ma-
noeuvres along walls.
fig. 120L0D0395m
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.
