If the xwarning light turns on when trav-
elling (with the message on the display) stop
the car immediately and contact a Lancia
Dealership.
Brake pad wear (amber)
The warning light (or symbol on the display )
s witches on when the front brake pad s s how
s igns of wear; under thes e circumstances have
them replaced a s s oon as possible. The dis play s hows the
dedicated me ssage.
IMPORTANT Becaus e the car is equipped with a wear de-
tection system only for the front brake pad s, when thes e
are replaced the rear brake pad s s hould als o be checked
for wear.

Airbag failure (red)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light s tays on con-
s tantly if there is a fault in the airbag system.
The dis play will s how the dedicated me ssage.
¬
If the ¬warning light does not come on when
the key is turned to MAR or if it stays on with
the car in motion (together with the message
on the display) there could be a fault in the restraint
systems; under these circumstances, the airbags or
pretensioners may not be deployed in the event of
an impact or, more rarely, they could be deployed
accidentally. Contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the system checked immediately.
The failure of the ¬warning light is indi-
cated by the
“warning light flashing longer
than the expected 4 seconds, which signals
that the front passenger airbag is deactivated. In
addition, the airbag system automatically deacti-
vates the passenger side airbags (front airbag and
side bag). In this case, the
¬warning light may not
indicate failures in the retaining systems. Before
proceeding, contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
system checked immediately.
EBD failure
If warning lights x
(red) and>(amber) are
on at the s ame time with the engine running,
this indicates an EBD system failure or that the
system is not available. Earl y locking of the rear
wheels may occur in the event of sharp brak-
ing, possibly causing the car to s werve.
Drive very carefully to a Lancia Dealer ship to have
the system ins pected immediatel y. The dis play will s how
the dedicated message.x

The
“warning light s witches on when the front
passenger’ s airbag and s ide bag are dis abled. With
the front passenger airbag s activated, when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, the
“warning light s witches on
cons tantly for about 4 seconds , flashes for another 4 sec-
onds and s hould then s witch off.
“
Failure of the “warning light is indicated
by the
¬warning light coming on. In addi-
tion, the airbag system automatically deac-
tivates the passenger side airbags (front airbag and
side bag for versions/markets, where provided). Be-
fore proceeding, contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the system checked immediately.
S eat belts unfastened (red)
This warning light s witches on cons tantly when
the car is not in motion and the driver s ide seat

FRONT AIRBAGSThe car is provided with front airbags for the driver and
the passenger, driver’s knee bag (for versions/markets
where provided) and front side bags (side bags - window
bags).
The front airbags (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 mal-
function.
An electronic control unit will make the bag inflate in the
event of a frontal impact.
The bag will
inflate instantaneously placing itself between
the front occupants body and the structures which could
cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
The front airbags (driver, passenger, driver knee bag) do
not replace but rather complement the seat belts, which
you are always advised to wear, as specified by law in Eu-
rope and most non-European countries.
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 airbags may not be activated in the following sit-
uations:
❍front collisions agai
nst 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).
Failure to activate in the conditions described above is due
to the fact that they may not provide any additional pro-
tection compared with seat belts, so their activation would
be inappropriate. In these cases, non-deployment of the
airbag does not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
Do not apply stickers or other objects on the
steering wheel, on the dashboard in the pas-
senger side airbag area, on the side uphol-
stery on the roof and on the seats. Never put ob-
jects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passenger side of
the dashboard since they could interfere with cor-
rect inflation of the passenger airbag and also cause
serious injury to the passengers.

With ignition key inserted, at MAR, even if
the engine is off, the airbags can activate al-
so with the car stopped, if it is hit by anoth-
er vehicle. Therefore, even if the car is stationary,
when an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT
install rear facing child restraint systems on the
front passenger seat. Deployment of the airbag fol-
lowing an impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
airbag when a rear facing child restraint system
is installed on the front passenger seat. The front
passenger seat must also be positioned back as far
as possible in order to avoid the child restraint sys-
tem from coming into contact with the dashboard.
Immediately reactivate the passenger airbag as soon
as the child restraint system has been removed. Al-
so remember that, if the key is turned to STOP, none
of the safety devices (airbags or pretensioners) will
be deployed in the event of collision. Non-deploy-
ment in such cases does not indicate a system mal-
function.
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the
“warning light turns on and blinks for a few
seconds to remind you that the passenger
airbag will activate in the event of a collision. Then
it should turn off.Do not wash the seats with water or pres-
surised steam (by hand or at automatic car
seat washing stations).The front airbags deploy in the event of more
severe collisions than those required for de-
ploying the pretensioners. For impacts in the
range between the two activation thresholds, pre-
tensioner activation alone is normal.Do not hook rigid objects to clothes hangers
and support handles.The airbag does not replace seat belts; it in-
creases their effectiveness. Furthermore, since
front airbags are not deployed in low speed
collisions, side collisions, rear-end shunts or roll-
overs, the passengers are only protected by the seat
belts which must be fastened at all times.

REPLACING FUSESGENERAL INFORMATION
Fuses protect the electric system: they blow in the event
of a failure or improper action on the system. Check the
condition of the corresponding fuse when a device does
not work: the filament A - fig. 37 must be intact. If it is
not, replace the blown fuse with another having the same
amperage (same colour).
Bintact fuse
C fuse with damaged filament.
To replace a fuse, use the pliers D - fig. 37 attached to
the dashboard fuse box.
Refer to the tables on the following pages to identify the
protection fuse.
fig. 37
L0E0085m
If the fuse blows again contact a Lancia
Dealership.Never replace a blown fuse with metal wires
or other materials.Never replace a fuse with another with a
higher amp rating; FIRE RISK.If a general protection fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-FUSE) blows,
contact a Lancia Dealership.Before changing a fuse, check that the igni-
tion key has been removed and that all the
other electric devices have been turned
off/disabled.If a general protection fuse for safety systems
(airbag system, braking system), power unit
systems (engine system, gearbox system) ac-
tive suspension system (for versions/markets, where
provided) or steering system blows, contact a Lan-
cia Dealership.
