IMPORTANT Rear seat passengers should always set the
head restraints in “fully drawn out” position.
Perform these operations only when the car
is stationary and the engine is not running.
The head restraints must be adjusted so that
they support your head and not your neck. Only then
do they fulfil their protective action. To optimise
head restraint protective action, adjust the backrest
upright and keep your head as close as possible to
the head restraint.

DOUBLE LOAD COMPARTMENT
(MAGIC BACK BOX) (where applicable)
In addition to reclining seats the car can also be equipped
with an adjustable load platform with two different heights
in order to even the load and adjust the luggage com-
partment capacity.
Keeping the load platform in the upper position makes it
possible for the space created underneath to be used as
another compartment that can be used to store more frag-
ile or smaller objects.
To access the compartment under the load compartment,
lift up shelf A holding it with your hands and put the de-
sired objects inside.
IMPORTANT Movements of the load platform may take
place if it is in a central position in relation to the lugga-
ge compartment.To place shelf A at the level of the floor
(fully lowered) fig. 63:
always turn the elements C - Fig. 62 so that they are
always turn the elements C - Fig. 62 so that they are
in a vertical position against the seat backrest;

pull the shelf in a horizontal direction towards itself
until the end of travel position (point 2);
push the shelf downwards gently until point 3 is rea-
ched (fully lowered);
accompany the shelf to the “fully lowered” position
(point 4).
To move shelf A from the fully lowered position to
the highest position Fig. 64:
pull handle B from point 1 and raise shelf A by around
45°;
pull the shelf upwards to point 2 and leave it resting
on the side supports D;
pull the shelf towards itself as far as point 3 (fully
forwards);
let the shelf fall at point 4 in the "fully raised" position.
To extract the spare wheel:
pull the load shelf upwards using handle B;
lift up the load compartment carpet;
extract the tape and hook for the carpet and attach it
to the boot upper seal.

All restraint devices must bear the type-approval data
along with the control mark on a label that must be firm-
ly secured to the child seat and must never be removed.
When over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of
restraint systems, children are considered as adults and
have to wear the standard seat belts. Lineaccessori Lan-
cia includes child seats for each weight group.
These devices are recommended and have been specifi-
cally designed for Lancia cars.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing backwards on
a cradle seat, which, supporting the head, does not induce
stress on the neck in the event of sharp deceleration.
The cradle is restrained by the car seat belts, as shown in
fig. 4 and in turn it must restrain the child with its own
belts.
GROUP 1
Children from 9 kg to 18 kg in weight can be carried fac-
ing forwards if the child seat is fitted with a front cush-
ion, through which the car seat belt restrains both child
and seat fig. 4.
fig. 4L0E0064m

134SAFETY
GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the car seat belts di-
rectly fig. 4.
The child seat is only needed to position the child correctly
with respect to the belts so that the diagonal section cross-
es the child’s chest and never the neck and is snug on the
hips not the abdomen.
GROUP 3
For children from 22 kg to 36 kg the size of the child’s
chest no longer requires a support to space the child’s back
from the seat back. Figure 4 shows proper child seat positioning on the rear
seat. Children over 1.50 m in height can wear seat belts
like adults.
Below is a summary of the safety rules to be followed when
carrying children.
1) The recommended position for installing child seats
is on the rear seat, as it is the most protected area in
the event of a crash.
2) If the passenger’s air bag is deactivated always check
the amber warning light “is lit on the instrument pan-
el to make sure that it has actually been deactivated.
3) Carefully follow the instructions supplied with the child
restraint system which are mandatory by law. Keep the
instructions in the car along with the other papers and
this handbook. Do not use child seats without in-
structions.
4) Always check the seat belt is well fastened by pulling
the webbing.
5) Only one child is to be strapped to each retaining sys-
tem; never carry two children using one child seat.
6) Always check the seat belts do not rest on the child’s
throat.
7) While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrectly or
release the belts.
8) Never carry children on your lap, even newborns. No-
one, however strong, can hold a child in the event of
an accident.
9) In the event of an accident, replace the child’s seat with
a new one.
The diagrams are indicative and provided for
assembly purposes only. Refer to the in-
structions supplied with the child seat. Some
child restraint systems for weight groups 0 and 1
have a rear attachment to the car seat belts and their
own seat belts for securing the child. Due to their
weight, they may be dangerous if incorrectly mount-
ed (e.g. if fastened to the car seat belts with a cush-
ion in between). Follow the assembly instructions
carefully.

If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is
fluid in the reservoir: see “Checking fluid levels” in this

Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if nec-

The windscreen jets are directed by adjusting the angle
of the nozzles.
