KNOWING YOUR CAR151
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICE INSTALLATION
The electric/electronic devices installed subsequent to the
purchase of the car and included in the after-sales service
must be marked:
FIAT S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceiver de-
vices on condition that such installations are carried out
in a workmanlike fashion, following the manufacturer’s
instructions, at a specialised centre.
IMPORTANT Traffic authorities may not allow the ve-
hicle on the road if devices are fitted that modify vehicle
specifications. This may also invalidate the warranty in
relation to faults caused by the change or either directly
or indirectly related to it. FIAT S.p.A. shall not be liable
for damage caused by the installation of accessories ei-
ther not supplied or recommended by FIAT S.p.A. and/or
not installed in compliance with the provided instruc-
tions.RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND CELLULAR PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB
radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the car
unless a separate aerial is mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of such devices inside the passen-
ger compartment (without a separate aerial), may cause
the car’s electronic systems to malfunction. This could
compromise safety in addition to constituting a poten-
tial hazard for passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of these devices
may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle
body. As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is
concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), follow the instructions
for use provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.

SAFETY169
FRONT AIR BAGS
The car is provided with front air bags for the driver and
the passenger, driver’s knee air bag (for versions/markets
where provided) and front side bags (side bags – window
bags).
The front air bags (driver, passenger driver’s knee bag)
protect the occupants of the front seats in the event of
moderate to serious front impacts by positioning the bag
between the occupant and the steering wheel or the dash-
board.
Therefore non-activation in other types of collisions (side
collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make the bag inflate in the
event of a frontal impact.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing itself be-
tween the front occupants body and the structures which
could cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
The front airbags (driver’s, passenger’s, driver’s knee air
bags) do not replace but rather complement the seat
belts, which you are always recommended to wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most non-European coun-
tries.
In the event of an impact, someone not wearing a seat belt
could move forward and come into contact with a bag
which is still in the opening phase. The protection offered
by the bag is reduced in such a case.The front air bags may not be activated in the following
situations:
❍front collisions against highly deformable objects not
affecting the front surface of the car (e.g. bumper col-
lision against guard rail, etc.);
❍car wedging under other vehicles or protective barri-
ers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection compared
with seat belts, so their activation would be inappropri-
ate. Therefore, failure to come into action in the above
circumstances does not mean that the system is not work-
ing properly.
Do not apply stickers or other objects on the
steering wheel, on the dashboard in the pas-
senger side airbag area, on side upholstery
on roof and on the seats. Never put objects (e.g. mo-
bile phones) on the passenger’s side dashboard since
they could interfere with proper air bag inflation
and also cause serious injury to the passengers.

246SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
If the car must remain unused for a long
time at very low temperature, remove the
battery and bring it to a warm place, to
avoid freezing.
When you must perform any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
Incorrect assembly of electric and electronic
devices may cause severe damage to your
car. Contact a Lancia Dealership if you
want to install accessories (alarms, mobile phone,
etc.): they will suggest the most suitable devices
and advise you if a higher capacity battery needs
to be installed.
Batteries contain substances that can be very
dangerous for the environment. It is advis-
able to have the battery replaced by a Lan-
cia Dealership where it will be disposed of with re-
spect for the environment and according to legal
regulation.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE
AT THE END OF ITS LIFE
Lancia has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its
production processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly compatible with the ecosystem. To assure
customers of the best possible service in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Direc-
tive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, Lancia is offering their customers the opportunity of
handing over their vehicle* at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of its market value. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1
stJanuary 2007,
vehicles registered after 1stJuly 2002 will be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge
irrespective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and
bodywork) and has no additional waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, go to one of our Lancia dealerships or authorized
collection and scrapping centres. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collec-
tion, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from a Lancia Dealership or by call-
ing the freephone number 00800 526242 00 or on the Lancia website.
