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

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

The driving speed must always be suitable
for traffic and weather conditions and the
driver must always comply with the High-
way Code. The engine can also be switched off if the
DPF warning light is on; nevertheless, repeated in-
terruptions of the regeneration process could cause
an early deterioration of engine oil. For this reason,
always wait until the warning light switches off be-
fore stopping the engine as described above. It is not
advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the
car stationary.If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving,
it means that the injection system is not working proper-
l y ; in particular, if the warning light come s on cons tant-
l y , this indicates a malfunction in the s upply/ignition sys-
tem that could caus e excessive exhaust emissions , a pos-
s ible loss of performance, poor driveabilit y and high fuel
cons umption. On some vers ions the dis play s hows the ded-
icated message. Under the se conditions , you may contin-
ue travelling at a moderate speed without demanding ex-
cessive effort from the engine. Prolonged u se of the car
with the warning light on con stantly may cau se damage.
G o to a Lancia Dealer ship as soon as possible.
The warning light s witches off if the malfunction di sap-
pears , but it is still stor

ed by the system.

ble if U warning light either does not light

stantly or flashing (on some versions along with a

trol authorities using specific devices. Comply with
