STEERING WHEEL
It can be adjusted vertically (and axially).
To adjust the steering wheel, move lever fig. 20 upwards
to position 1. Adjust the steering wheel into the most suit-
able position and lock it in this position by moving the
lever to position 2.
REARVIEW MIRRORS
INTERNAL REARVIEW MIRROR fig. 21
The mirror is fitted with a safety device that causes its
release in the event of a violent crash.
It can be moved using lever A to two different positions:
normal or antiglare.
ELECTROCHROMIC INTERNAL REARVIEW
MIRROR (where provided)
Some versions provide an electrochromic mirror with au-
tomatic antiglare function. An ON/OFF button in the low-
er area of the mirror enables/disables the electrochromic
function. When the function is activated this is indicated
by the LED on the mirror lighting up.
Perform these operations only when the car
is stationary and the engine is not running.

Engaging reverse gear automatically sets the mirror for
daylight use.
DOOR MIRRORS fig. 22
Proceed as follows to adjust the position of the door mir-
rors:
select the mirror using selector B;
adjust the mirror using controls A, in all four direc-
tions.Folding back door mirrors fig. 23
When required (for example when the mirror causes dif-
ficulty in narrow spaces) it is possible to fold the mirror
by moving it from position 1 (open), to position 2 (closed).
On some versions the door mirrors can be folded back elec-
trically by operating a dedicated control.
fig. 22L0E0014mfig. 23L0E0015m
When driving, the mirrors should always be
in position 1. As the door mirrors are curved,
they may slightly alter the perception of dis-
tance.

The rear window wiper stops operating a few strokes af-
ter the lever is released; after a few seconds, a further
cleaning stroke completes the wiping operation.
RAIN SENSOR (where provided)
The rain sensor A-fig. 30 is located behind the interior
rear-view mirror in contact with the windscreen and au-
tomatically adjusts the frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes according to the rain intensity during intermittent
operation.
The sensor has an adjustment range that varies progres-
sively from wiper still (no stroke) when the windscreen
is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed (slow continu-
ous operation) with intense rain.Activation
Move the right lever down by one click.
The activation of the rain sensor is signalled by a com-
mand acquisition stroke.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
By turning selector wheel F-fig. 29 is it possible to increase
the sensitivity of the rain sensor to obtain a more rapid
variation between wiper still (no stroke) when the wind-
screen is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed (slow con-
tinuous operation).
The increase in the sensitivity of the rain sensor is signalled
by a control and acquisition “stroke”.
When the windscreen washer is operated with the rain sen-
sor activated, the normal washing cycle is performed, at
the end of which the rain sensor resumes its normal au-
tomatic function.

INTERIOR FITTINGS
SUN VISORS fig. 39
These are arranged at the sides of the internal rearview
mirror.
They may be positioned frontally and to the side.
A mirror is provided on the back of the sun visors. This
is illuminated by courtesy light A. The driver and pas-
senger-side sun visors also feature a document holder.

FRONT ARMREST WITH ODDMENT
COMPARTMENT
This is located between the front seats. An oddment com-
partment and cooled drinks compartment is located in-
side the armrest (see following sections). The armrest can
be moved backwards and forwards by operating cover
A-fig. 40.
Oddment compartment
Lift up cover A-fig. 40: you can then access oddment com-
partment B-fig. 40.

DRIVING ADVISOR(where provided)
The Driving Advisor is a warning system that notifies
the driver if they drift out of their lane because they
have been distracted.
A video sensor, fitted to the windscreen near the internal
rear-view mirror, detects the lane boundaries and the ve-
hicle’s position in respect to them.
IMPORTANT If the windscreen needs replacing on cars
fitted with a Driving Advisor system, it is advisable to go
to a Lancia Dealership. If the repair is being carried out
at a specialist window replacement centre, it is still nec-
essary to go to a Lancia Dealership to have the tv cam-
era calibrated.
OPERATION
The system is not activated when the vehicle is started.
It is only activated when button A-fig. 70 on the dash-
board is pressed. Activation is confirmed by the lighting
up of the LED on the button and a dedicated message ap-
pearing on the display. Once it is turned on the system will
recognize the operating conditions which is signalled to
the driver by the LED located in the button flashing and
the symbol
ein the amber coloured panel in the instru-
ment panel display flashing too. Once the system has
recognised the operating conditions, it becomes active.
When this happens: the
eicon on the display goes out
and the LED on the button remains on constantly. IMPORTANT If the operating conditions are no longer
present then the system will deactivate. This is signalled
to the driver by: the LED on the button and the amber
eicon on the display flashing.
OPERATING CONDITIONS FOR ACTIVATION
Once switched on, the system becomes active only if the
following conditions are present:
always keep at least one hand on the steering wheel;
vehicle speed between 65 km/h and 180 km/h;
presence of lane demarcation lines not deteriorated and
visible on both sides;
suitable visibility conditions;
straight road or wide curves;
visual field condition sufficient (safety distance from
vehicle in front).
ACTIVATING/DEACTIVATING THE SYSTEM
When the system is active, if the vehicle nears one of the
side lane markings a torque is applied to the steering wheel
advising the driver of the direction the steering wheel needs
to the turned to stay in the present lane.
If the driver turns on the direction indicator in order to
change lanes or for overtaking, then the system will switch
off momentarily. If the driver wishes to change lanes with-
out turning the direction indicator on, then there will be
a warning from the steering wheel that they are about to
cross the line. If the driver continues with the manoeuvre
to change lanes, the system will be temporarily deactivated
and then switch back on again once it has recognized the

154STARTING UP AND DRIVING
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on fuel con-
sumption and emissions: accelerate gradually.
CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-ups will prevent
the engine from reaching optimal running temperature.
Consequently, both fuel consumption (from +15 to +30%
on urban cycle ) and emissions will increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high fuel consumption is caused by heavy traffic,
for instance when travelling in a queue with frequent use
of low gears or in cities with many traffic lights. Moun-
tain and rough roads also have a negative effect on fuel
consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (level crossings) the engine
should be switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The car must be provided with a type-approved tow hitch
and adequate electrical system to tow caravans or trail-
ers. Installation must be performed by specialised per-
sonnel who will issue the required papers for travelling on
roads.
Install any specific and/or additional rear-view mirrors as
specified by the Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer, steep hills are hard-
er to climb, braking distances increase and overtaking
takes longer depending on the overall weight of the trail-
er.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather than con-
stantly using the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the car’s tow hitch will reduce
the loading capacity of the car by the same amount. Con-
sider the weight of the vehicle at full load, including ac-
cessories and luggage to make sure you do not exceed the
maximum towable weight (shown on the registration cer-
tificate).
Respect the speed limits specific for each country for ve-
hicles towing trailers. In all cases, the top speed must not
exceed 100 km/h.
