Activation of air recirculation and enablement
of AQS (Air Quality System) fig. 26
Press button
T.
Internal air recirculation is carried out according to three
possible operating modes:
❍automatic control, signalled by the AQS sign on the
display and the LED on button
Tbeing off;
❍permanently off (air recirculation always off with in-
troduction of external air), indicated by the LED on
button
Tbeing off;
❍permanently on (air recirculation always on), sig-
nalled by the LED on button
Tbeing lit up.
When OFF is pressed, the climate control system auto-
matically activates air recirculation (the LED on button
Tis on). It is still possible to activate outside air re-
circulation (LED on the button is off) and vice versa, by
pressing button
T.
With the OFF button pressed (LED on the button is lit
up), it is not possible to enable the AQS (Air Quality Sys-
tem) function.IMPORTANT The internal air recirculation system makes
it possible to reach the required heating or cooling con-
ditions faster. It is not advisable to switch the air recir-
culation on when it is rainy/cold or the windows might
mist up, especially if the climate control is not turned on.
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the in-
troduction of polluted air. Do not use the function for
a long time, particularly if there are many passengers on
board, to prevent the windows from misting up.
Enabling the AQS (Air Quality System) function
The AQS function (AQS appears on the display), auto-
matically activates internal air recirculation when the
outside air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).
IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after 15 con-
secutive minutes of the internal air recirculation system
functioning, the climate control system enables the intake
of outside air for approximately 1 minute to change the
air in the passenger compartment. This takes place re-
gardless of the pollution level of the outside air.

LANE CHANGE FUNCTION
If you wish to signal a lane change, place the left lever
in the unstable position for less than half a second. The
direction indicator on the side selected will flash five
times and then switch off automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This allows the space surrounding the car to be lit up for
a certain period of time.
Activation
With the ignition key in the STOP position or extracted,
pull the stalk towards the steering wheel and move it
within 2 minutes of the engine switching off. At each sin-
gle movement of the stalk, the lights will remain on for
an extra 30 seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds;
then the lights are switched off automatically. Each time
the lever is operated, the warning light 3 on the instru-
ment panel comes on and the display shows how long the
function will remain active. The warning light comes on
when the stalk is pulled for the first time and stays lit un-
til the function switches itself off automatically. Each time
the stalk is activated the time will extend the time that
the lights remain on.
Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the steering wheel for more
than 2 seconds.WINDOW WASHING
The right-hand lever fig. 29 controls windscreen wiper/
washer and heated rear window wiper/washer operation.
WINDSCREEN WIPER/WASHER fig. 29
This operates only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
The right hand lever can take up five different positions:
A: windscreen wiper off.
B: intermittent operation.
With the lever in position B, turn control F to select one
of four different speeds for the intermittent operation
mode:
,= very slow intermittent operation
■= slow intermittent operation.
■■= normal intermittent operation
■■■= fast intermittent operation.
C: continuous slow operation;
D: continuous fast operation;
E: temporary fast operation (unstable position).

“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.
fig. 29L0E0021m
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.

KNOWING YOUR CAR67
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.

Press the buttons to open/close the required window.
When one of the two buttons is pressed briefly, the win-
dow moves in stages; if the button is held down, “con-
tinuous automatic” operation is activated both for clos-
ing and opening. If the button is pressed again the
window will stop in its current position. Holding the but-
ton pressed for a few seconds will automatically raise or
lower the window (only with key on MAR).
Incorrect use of the power windows may be
dangerous. Before and during operation en-
sure that passengers are not at risk from the
moving glass, either directly or through personal
objects getting caught in the mechanism.
Always remove the ignition key when leav-
ing the car to prevent the electric windows
being operated accidentally and constituting
a danger to the passengers in the car.

KNOWING YOUR CAR89
Anti-crush safety device
The vehicle is equipped with an anti-pinch safety device
for the raising of the front windows.
This safety system detects the presence of an obstacle
during the window closing travel and cuts in by stopping
and reversing the window travel, depending on its posi-
tion. This device is also useful if the windows are acti-
vated accidentally by children on board the vehicle.
The anti-pinch function is active both during manual and
automatic operation of the electric windows. Following
the intervention of the anti-pinch system, the window
travel is immediately interrupted and subsequently re-
versed until the lower end of travel is reached. The win-
dow cannot be operated in any way during this time.IMPORTANT If the anti-pinch protection intervenes 5
consecutive times within a minute or is faulty, the auto-
matic closing operation of the window is inhibited, only
allowing it in steps of half a second; the button is released
for the subsequent manoeuvre.
In order to restore the correct operation of the system, one
of the following manoeuvres must be performed:
❍switch off and restart the engine;
❍fully lower the window concerned.
IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or removed, the
electric windows remain active for about 3 minutes and
are deactivated when a door is opened.

90KNOWING YOUR CAR
Electric window system initialisation
The system must be re-initialised after disconnecting the
battery or if the relevant protection fuse is blown.
Initialisation procedure:
❍fully close the window to be initialised manually;
❍once fully closed, keep holding down the closing con-
trol for at least 1 second.
IMPORTANT Where provided, after there has been no
power supply for the control units (battery replaced or
disconnected or protective fuses for the electric window
control units replaced), the automatic operation of the
windows must be restored.The restoration procedure must be performed as follows
with the doors closed:
1. completely open the driver’s door window keeping the
operating button pressed for at least three seconds af-
ter the (lower) end of travel position;
2. completely raise the driver’s side window and keep the
button pressed for at least three seconds once the end
of travel position (upper end stop) has been reached;
3. repeat stages 1 and 2 for the passenger-side window
4. make sure that the initialisation is correct by check-
ing that the windows work automatically.
IMPORTANT With central locking on, operating the in-
ternal handle of one of the doors will unlock all the doors.
If there is no electric power supply (fuse blown, battery
disconnected, etc.) it is still possible to operate the door
locking manually; in this case the automatic lowering
function for the windows is not available and to open or
close the door with the window closed it is necessary to
exert pressure on the window towards the inside of the
vehicle to facilitate the movement of the window on the
moulding.

KNOWING YOUR CAR107
In the 1.4 Turbo Jet 150 HP version, pressing the SPORT
button, the turbocharger supercharging function (over-
boost) starts; considering the
position of the accelerator pedal and for a limited time,
the engine management control unit achieves maximum
pressure levels inside the turbocharger, with a consequent
increase in engine torque with respect to that which is
normally possible.
This function is particularly useful whenever maximum
performance is required for a short time (e.g. when over-
taking).
IMPORTANT During acceleration, when the SPORT
function is used the steering may shudder which is typi-
cal of a sports setting.
IMPORTANT The function is activated about 5 seconds
after the SPORT button is pressed.
System failure
In the event of a malfunction, the system notifies the dri-
ver of the fault via a dedicated message in the reconfig-
urable multifunction display instrument panel and the
amber
isymbol coming on.
In this case, go to a Lancia Dealership.
DRIVING ADVISOR
(Lane crossing warning )
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Driving Advisor is a warning system that notifies
the driver if he/she crosses the lane because he/she
has been distracted.A video sensor, fitted on the wind-
screen near the interior rear view mirror, detects the lane
demarcation lines and the position of the car in relation
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.

Start&Stop system activation
A message and a symbol will be displayed when the
Start&Stop system is on. In this condition, the LED
A-fig. 75 on the button Tis off.
Turning the Start&Stop off
Versions with reconfigurable multifunction display: the
Tsymbol will appear on the display when the Start&Stop
system is off.
When the system is deactivated, the LED A-fig. 75 is on.ENGINE STOPPING FAILURE CONDITIONS
When the system is operating, due to comfort, emission
control and safety reasons, the engine does not stop in
some conditions, among which:
❍engine still cold;
❍especially cold outside temperature;
❍battery not sufficiently charged;
❍heated rear window activated;
❍driver’s door not shut;
❍driver’s seat belt not fastened;
❍reverse gear engaged (for example, during parking
manoeuvres);
❍for versions equipped with dual zone automatic cli-
mate control (for versions/markets, where provided),
if an adequate level of thermal comfort has not been
reached or MAX-DEF function activation;
❍during the first period of use, to initialise the system.
In these cases, the display shows a message and – for
those versions/markets where provide – the symbol U
on the instrument panel display flashes.
If the climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Start&Stop system can be deactivated, for
a continuous operation of the climate control system.
