“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable po-
sition) to operate the windscreen washer. Keep the lever
pulled to activate both the windscreen washer jet and the
windscreen wiper with a single movement; the latter
turns on automatically if you keep the lever pulled for
over half a second. The windscreen wiper stops operat-
ing a few strokes after releasing the stalk; a further
“cleaning stroke”, after a few seconds, completes the
wiping operation.

REAR WINDOW WASHER/ WIPER
This operates only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
Turn the ring nut to
'to operate the rear window wiper.
With the windscreen wiper on, turn the ring nut to
'to
turn on the rear window wiper. In this case the wiper
works (in the different positions) timed with the wind-
screen wiper, but at half speed. With the windscreen
wiper on, engaging reverse gear will automatically turn
the rear window wiper on, in continuous slow operation.
Operation stops when reverse is disengaged.
Do not use the windscreen or rear window
wiper to remove layers of snow or ice from
the windscreen. In these conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be submitted to excessive
effort resulting in motor protection cutting in and
wiper operation inhibition for a few seconds. If the
issue persists, contact a Lancia Dealership.
“Smart washing” function
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard (unstable po-
sition) will activate the rear window washer.
Keep the stalk pressed, with just one movement, to op-
erate the rear window washer jet and the rear window
wiper itself; the latter automatically turns on if you keep
the stalk pressed for more than half a second.

The rear window wiper stops operating a few strokes af-
ter releasing the stalk; a further “cleaning stroke”, after
a few seconds, completes the wiping operation.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets 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 intermit-
tent 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 continuous
operation) with intense rain.
fig. 30L0E0023m
Activation
Move the right lever down by one click.
The activation of the sensor is signalled by a “stroke”
to show the command has been acquired.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
By turning ring nut F-fig. 29 is it possible to increase the
sensitivity of the rain sensor to obtain a more rapid vari-
ation between wiper still (no stroke) when the windscreen
is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed (slow continu-
ous operation).
The increasing of the rain sensor sensitivity is signalled
by a “stroke” to show the command has been acquired.
When the windscreen washer is operated with the rain
sensor activated, the normal washing cycle is performed,
at the end of which the rain sensor resumes its normal
automatic function.

Deactivation
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
The next time the vehicle is started (ignition key turned
to MAR), the sensor is not reactivated even if the lever is
still in position B-fig. 29. To activate the sensor, move the
lever to position A or C and then back to position B.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by at least one
wiper “stroke” even if the windscreen is dry.CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving assistance de-
vice which allows the vehicle to be driven at a chosen
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry, straight
roads with few variations (e.g. motorways), without hav-
ing to depress the accelerator pedal.
It is therefore not recommended to use this device on
country roads with traffic. Do not use it in town.
TURNING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring nut A-fig. 31 to ON.
The device must only be switched on in gears higher than
4t
h.
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 when-
ever the windscreen is being cleaned.

SUNROOF
(for versions/markets where available)
The large electric sun roof comprises two glass panels; the
front one is mobile and the rear one fixed. These are
equipped with two sun blinds (front and rear) that can be
moved manually. With the sun roof closed, the blinds can
be placed in any position. To open the blinds: grip han-
dle C-fig. 49, and move the blind to the required position
by following the direction of movement shown by the ar-
row. To close them, carry out the procedure in reverse. The
sun roof can be operated only with the ignition key turned
to MAR. The controls A-B fig. 49 on the front courtesy
light trim operate the roof opening/closing functions.
Opening
Press and hold down button B-fig. 49. The front glass
panel will move into the spoiler position; press button B
once again and hold down for more than half a second
to automatically move the sun roof to an intermediate po-
sition (“Comfort” position). If the opening control is
pressed again for more than half a second, the roof will
automatically continue until it reaches the end of travel
position; the roof glass can be stopped in an intermediate
position by operating the button again.
IMPORTANT During the sun roof opening operation, the
blind will follow the movement of the sun roof.

Closing
With the roof in the fully open position, press button
A-fig. 49 and, if the button is operated for more than half
a second, the front roof glass will automatically assume
the intermediate position (comfort position).
If the button is operated again for about half a second the
roof will assume the spoiler position. Lastly, if the clos-
ing button is pressed again, the roof will assume the fully
closed position.
fig. 49L0E0108m
Use the sunroof only at “spoiler” position if
cross roof racks are fitted. Never open the roof
in presence of snow or ice to prevent damage.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
key from the ignition to avoid the risk of in-
jury to those still inside the car due to acci-
dental operation of the sunroof. Improper use of the
roof can be dangerous. Before operation, always
check that no-one is at risk of being injured by the
moving sunroof or by objects getting caught and
dragged by it.
Anti-pinch device
The sun roof has an anti-pinch safety system capable of
detecting the presence of an obstacle whilst the roof is
closing; when this happens, the system stops and the
movement of the glass is immediately reversed.IMPORTANT The blind will remain in the fully open po-
sition when closing the sun roof. If you would like to close
it, this must be done manually.
