LANE CHANGE FUNCTION
If you want to signal that you are changing lane, hold the
left-hand lever in the unstable position for less than half
a second. The direction indicator on the selected side flash-
es 5 times and then switches off automatically.

With the ignition key on STOP or removed, pull the lever
towards the steering wheel within 2 minutes of switching
the engine off. The amount of time the lights remain on
is extended by 30 seconds at each movement of the lever,
up to a maximum of 210 seconds; after this the lights are
switched off automatically. Each time the lever is oper-
ated, the warning light on the instrument panel comes
on and the display shows how long the function will re-
main active. The warning light comes on the first time the
lever is operated, and stays on until the function is auto-
matically deactivated. Each time you operate the lever, the
amount of time the lights will remain lit up increases.
Deactivation

When travelling downhill with the device engaged, the car
speed may exceed the memorised one.
The engagement of the device is signalled by the Üwarn-
ing light lighting up in the instrument panel (together with
a message shown on the display) (see “Instrument panel
warning lights” in chapter 1).
MEMORISING VEHICLE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❍turn selector wheel A-fig. 31 to ON and press the ac-
celerator until the vehicle reaches the desired speed;
❍turn selector wheel B to (+) for at least three seconds
and then release it: the car speed will be memorised
and the accelerator pedal may be released.
If required (e.g. for overtaking), press the accelerator ped-
al to accelerate: the car will return to the previously set
speed when the pedal is released.
RESTORING MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged, for example by press-
ing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised speed can
be reset as follows:
❍accelerate gradually until you reach a speed ap-
proaching the one memorised;
❍engage the gear selected at the time of speed memo-
rising (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
❍press button C-fig. 31.INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
❍by pressing the accelerator and then memorising the
new speed reached;
or
❍by temporarily turning selector wheel B-fig. 31 to (+).
Each movement of the selector wheel will correspond to
a slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while keeping
the selector wheel turned will correspond to a continuous
speed increase.
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be carried out in two ways:
❍by disengaging the device and then memorising the
new speed;
or
❍by keeping selector wheel B-fig. 31 turned to (–) un-
til the new speed is reached; it will then be memorised
automatically.
Each movement of the selector wheel will correspond to
a slight reduction in speed (about 1 km/h), while keep-
ing the selector wheel turned will correspond to a contin-
uous reduction in speed.

HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
ABROAD
The factory adjustment of the dipped beam headlights de-
pends on the country where the car is purchased. When
you travel in countries with a different driving direction,
it is necessary to cover certain areas of the headlight ac-
cording to the provisions of the Highway Code of the coun-
try you are travelling in to avoid blinding the drivers trav-
elling in the opposite direction.
ADAPTIVE LIGHTS (AFS - Adaptive Xenon Light)
This is a system linked to the Xenon headlights, which
continuously and automatically adjusts the main light
beam and adapts it to the driving conditions when cor-
nering. The system directs the light beam to improve the
illumination of the road, taking into account the vehicle
speed, the cornering angle and the speed at which the
steering wheel is turned.Activating/deactivating the system fig. 68
The adaptive lights are activated automatically when the
vehicle is started. In this situation the LED (amber) on
button A will remain off.
Press button A to deactivate the adaptive lights (if acti-
vated); the LED on button A will light up. To reactivate
the adaptive lights: press button A once again (LED on
button is off).
In the event of a system failure, an indication is provided
on the instrument panel by the flashing of warning light
for the symbol.

DST SYSTEM
(Dynamic Steering Torque)
This system is built into the advanced ESP control unit
and provides steering corrections via the electric power
steering during driving. The system applies torque to the
steering wheel, increasing the feeling of safety, maintain-
ing control and reducing the impact of advanced ESP sys-
tem intervention.
Fault signalling
In the event of any operating faults occurring, the sys-
tem switches off automatically and the èwarning light is
lit up on the display together with a dedicated message.
In this case contact a Lancia Dealership.
SPORT FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The vehicle can be equipped with a system that allows you
to choose between two driving modes: normal and sport.
Press the SPORT button fig. 69 to set the sport driving
mode. This is characterised by increased acceleration re-
sponse and increased force required at the steering wheel
to obtain a more sporty drive.

On the 1.4 Turbo Jet 150 HP version, when the SPORT
button is pressed, the turbocharger (overboost) function
is also activated; the engine management control unit, de-
pending on the
position of the accelerator pedal and, for a limited time,
allows maximum pressure leves inside the turbocharger
to be reached with a consequent increase in engine torque
compared with that that can be reached normally.
This function is particularly useful if maximum perfor-
mance is required for a short period (e.g. when overtak-
ing).
IMPORTANT When the SPORT function is used, during
acceleration shuddering of the steering may be noticed
which is typical of a sports setting.
IMPORTANT The function is activated about 5 seconds
after the SPORT button is pressed.
System failure
In the case of fault, the system notifies the driver by means
of a message on the reconfigurable multifunctional display
instrument panel and by lighting up the amber symbol
i.
In this case, go to a Lancia Dealership.
DRIVING ADVISOR
(for versions/markets, 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.
