Deactivation
When the lights are switched off by the sensor, the dipped
beam headlights and side lights are switched off and the
daylight lights are switched on (if activated).
The sensor cannot detect the presence of fog: switch the
lights on manually in this case.
FRONT FOG LIGHTS WITH CORNERING LIGHTS
FUNCTION
When travelling at a speed of less than 40 km/h with the
dipped beam headlights on, when the steering wheel is
turned at a wide angle or the direction indicators are lit
up, a light (built into the front fog lights) will be activat-
ed on the side of the turn to increase night time visibility.
This function can be switched on/off using the display
menus (see “Display” section in this chapter). AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SENSOR
(dusk sensor) fig. 27 (where provided)
This sensor detects changes in external light levels ac-
cording to the sensitivity of the setting: the higher the sen-
sitivity, the lower the amount of external light needed to
switch the lights on. The sensitivity of the dusk sensor may
be adjusted, using the “Set-up menu” on the instrument
panel.
Activation
Turn the selector wheel to AUTO: in this way the external
lighting will switch on automatically according to the out-
side light level.
The headlights can only be flashed with the sensor on.The daytime lights are an alternative to the
dipped beam headlights for driving during
the daytime. They are compliant in countries
where is it obligatory to have lights on during the
day and permitted in those where it is not obliga-
tory Daytime lights cannot replace dipped beam
headlights when driving at night or through tunnels.
The use of daytime lights is governed by the High-
way Code of the country you are in. Keep to the
rules.

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.

66GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
Deactivation
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
The next time the vehicle is started (ignition key to MAR),
the sensor is not reactivated even if the lever is still in po-
sition B-fig. 29. To activate the sensor, move the lever to
position A or C and then back to position B.
Rain sensor activation is indicated by at least one wiper
stroke even if the windscreen is dry.
Do not activate the rain sensor when wash-
ing the car in an automatic car wash.
Make sure the device is switched off if there
is ice on the windscreen.
Make sure the device is switched off whenev-
er the windscreen is being cleaned.

CRUISE CONTROL (constant speed
regulator) (where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving aid, which al-
lows you to drive at speeds of over 30 km/h on long and
straight dry roads (e.g.: motorways), at a constant speed,
without pressing the accelerator pedal.
It is not recommended for use on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use it in town.
ENGAGING THE DEVICE
Turn selector wheel A-fig. 31 to ON.
The device may only be engaged in 4th or higher speeds.

104GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
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

Replacing the normal tyres with winter tyres
and vice versa requires the inspection of the
T.P.M.S. system, which should only be car-
ried out by a Lancia Dealership.
The T.P.M.S. system requires the use of spe-
cific equipment. Contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship to find out which accessories are com-
patible with the system (wheels, hub caps etc.). The
use of other accessories may affect the normal op-
eration of the system.
Tyre inflation pressure may vary according
to outdoor temperature. The T.P.M.S. system
may temporarily indicate insufficient pres-
sure. In this case check the tyre inflation pressure
with the tyres cold and, if necessary, top up the in-
flation pressure.
If the vehicle is fitted with a T.P.M.S, when
a tyre is removed, it is advisable to replace
the rubber gasket for the valve. Contact a
Lancia Dealership.
If the vehicle is fitted with a T.P.M.S., tyre
and wheel fitting/removal operations require
specific precautions. To avoid damaging or
fitting the sensors incorrectly, tyre and wheel fit-
ting/removal operations should only be carried out
by specialists. Contact a Lancia Dealership.
Particularly strong radio frequency interfer-
ence may cause the T.P.M.S. system to func-
tion incorrectly. This condition is indicated
to the driver by a warning light or symbol
nlight-
ing up on the display together with a dedicated mes-
sage. The warning message will go off automati-
cally as soon as the radio-frequency noise ceases to
disturb the system.
