OPENING THE TAILGATE IN AN EMERGENCY
fig. 57
To open the tailgate from the passenger compartment if the
car battery is flat or the electric tailgate lock is faulty, pro-
ceed as follows (see “Extending the boot” in this chapter)
❍remove the rear head restraints;
❍tilt the backrests;
❍operate lever A to unlock the tailgate mechanically from
inside the luggage compartment.EXTENDING THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
The luggage compartment can be partially (1/3 or 2/3)
or totally extended by splitting the rear seat fig. 59.
Proceed as follows to extend the luggage compartment:
❍completely lower the rear seat head restraints;
❍move the seat belt to the side, making sure that it is
correctly extended and not twisted;
❍release the parcel shelf blind (for versions/markets,
where provided) from the backrests;
❍operate one of the levers A-fig. 58 to fold back the re-
quired backrest (to make this procedure easier, move
the seat slightly forward using lever B, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).

DOUBLE LOAD COMPARTMENT
(MAGIC BACK BOX)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
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;
❍grip the handle B and lift up shelf A by around 45°
(point 1);
❍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.

HEADLIGHTS
BEAM DIRECTION
The correct orientation of the headlights is important for
the comfort and safety of not only the driver but all road
users. It is also a specific rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly aligned to ensure the best
visibility conditions for all drivers.
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have the headlights prop-
erly adjusted.
Check beam alignment every time the load or its distrib-
ution changes.
BEAM ADJUSTMENT fig. 67
The car is fitted with an electric headlight alignment sys-
tem. This system is operational with the ignition key to
MAR and the dipped beam headlights on.
The car will tilt backwards when it is loaded, raising the
light beam.
In this case, it is necessary to adjust the beams using but-
tons A and B.
The display provides a visual indication of the position
during adjustment.Correct position depending on load
Position 0 - one or two passengers in the front seats.
Position 1 - five passengers.
Position 2 - five passengers + load in the boot.
Position 3 - driver + maximum permitted load in the lug-
gage compartment.
FRONT FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have the front fog lights
checked and properly adjusted.

170STARTING UP AND DRIVING
To engage reverse gear R from neutral, raise ring A un-
der the knob and at the same time move the gearshift lever
to the left and then forwards.
For the 1.6 Multijet version: To engage reverse R from neu-
tral, raise ring A under the knob and at the same time
move the gearshift lever to the right and then backwards.
IMPORTANT The clutch pedal should only be used to
change gear. Do not drive with you foot resting on the
clutch pedal, even lightly. For versions/markets, where
provided, the electronic clutch control could cut in by in-
terpreting the anomalous driving style as a fault.
Press the clutch pedal fully to change gears
correctly. For this reason, there must be no
obstacles on the floor under the pedals: en-
sure that rubber mats (if any) are correctly posi-
tioned, not interfering with the pedals.
Do not drive with your hand resting on the
gear lever, because this pressure, even if light,
over time can wear out the gearbox inner
components.
REDUCING RUNNING COSTS
Here are some useful tips to save fuel and minimize pol-
luting emissions of CO
2and other pollutants (nitric oxide,
unburnt hydrocarbons, fine dusts etc…).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance
with the “Scheduled Service Plan”.
Tyres
Check tyre pressure regularly, at least once every four
weeks: excessively low pressure will increase fuel con-
sumption because rolling resistance will be higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. Do not travel with
too much luggage stowed in the boot. The weight of the
car (especially when driving in town) and its trim great-
ly affect fuel consumption and stability.

222CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Perform the following inspections more frequently than
shown on the Scheduled Service Plan:
❍check front disc brake pad condition and wear;
❍check cleanness of bonnet and boot locks and linkage
cleanness and lubrication;
❍visually inspect the condition of: engine, gearbox,
transmission, pipes and hoses (exhaust – fuel supply
- brakes) rubber elements (gaiters – hoses - bushes
etc.);❍check battery charge and fluid level (electrolyte); (see
“Battery - Charge and electrolyte level check” in this
chapter);
❍visually inspect the condition of auxiliary drivebelts;
❍check and if necessary replace the pollen filter; in par-
ticular it should be replaced if a decrease in the air flow
into the passenger compartment is detected;
❍check the air filter and replace, if required.
