SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT
Safety and respect for the environment are the guidelines that inspired the LANCIA Musa design from the drawing
board onwards.
This concept has meant that the LANCIA Musa has been able to face and pass the strictest safety tests.
So much so that, from this point of view, the car is the best in its class and has probably already incorporated
features that belong to the future.
In addition, ongoing research into new and effective features to help safeguard the environment makes the
LANCIA Musa a car to imitate for this reason as well.
All versions are in fact equipped with environmental protection devices that reduce harmful exhaust fumes in
compliance with the limits provided for by current legislation.
SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT
Safeguarding the environment has directed the design and manufacturing of the LANCIA Musa right from the
start. The result is the use of materials and the perfection of devices that can reduce or sweepingly reduce harmful
influences on the environment.
The LANCIA Musa equipped with environment safeguarding devices which curtail harmful exhaust gas emissions,
is ready to travel well ahead of the most stringent international pollution control standards.

USE OF MATERIALS THAT DO NOT HARM THE ENVIRONMENT
None of the car’s components contain asbestos. Padding and the air conditioning system do not contain CFCs
(Chlorofluorocarbides), the gases considered responsible for the destruction of the ozone layer. None of the
colourings and anti-corrosion coatings of the nuts and bolts contain air- or water-table-polluting cadmium or
chromates, but environmentally-friendly substances.
DEVICES FOR REDUCING EMISSIONS (petrol engines)
Three-way catalytic converter (catalytic exhaust pipe)
The exhaust system is equipped with a catalyst made up of noble metal alloys; it is housed in a stainless steel
container capable of withstanding the very high operating temperatures.
The catalyst converts the unburnt hydrocarbons, the carbon monoxide and the nitric oxides found in the exhaust
gases (though in small amounts, thanks to the electronic-injection ignition systems) into non-polluting substances.
When functioning normally, the catalytic converter reaches high temperatures. For this reason do not park the car
over inflammable material (e.g. paper, fuel oil, grass, dead leaves, etc.).
Lambda sensors
The Lambda sensors detect the oxygen content in the exhaust gas. The signal sent by the oxygen sensor is used by
the injection system electronic control unit to constantly mix air and fuel in the correct proportion.
Evaporation control system
As it is impossible to stop the build-up of petrol fumes, also when the engine is not running, the system traps them
in a special container holding active carbon.
The fumes are sucked in from here and burnt while the engine is running.

DEVICES FOR REDUCING EMISSIONS (Multijet engine)
Oxidising catalytic converter
This device converts the polluting substances in the exhaust gas (carbon monoxide, unburnt hydrocarbons and
particulates) into harmless substances, thus reducing the smokiness and smell associated with diesel engine
exhaust fumes.
The catalytic converter consists of a stainless steel case containing a honeycomb ceramic core in which there is the
precious metal that carries out the catalysing action.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (E.G.R.) system
This system recirculates or reuses part of the exhaust gas in a proportion which varies according to engine
operating conditions.
When necessary, it is used for the control of nitrogen oxide emissions.

MUST BE READ!
REFUELLING
Petrol engines:only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95.
Multijet engines:only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.
The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the
warranty due to the damage caused.
ENGINE STARTING
petrol engines:make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully
depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as
soon as the engine has started.
Multijet engines:turn the ignition key to MARand wait for the instrument panel warning light Y
andmto go out, then turn the ignition key to AV Vand release it as soon as the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
A system for continuously monitoring emission system components to ensure greater environmental
protection is fitted in your car.

ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical accessories (that will gradually drain the battery),
visit a Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the car’s
electric system can support the required load.
CODE card
Keep the code card in a safe place, not in the car. You should always keep the electronic code written
on the CODE card with you in case you need to carry out an emergency start-up procedure.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its
safety features, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.
THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS…
…information, tips and important warnings regarding the safe, correct driving of your car, and its
maintenance. Pay particular attention to the symbols "(personal safety) #(environmental
protection) â(car well-being).
Should the multifunction display show the message “See Handbook”, refer to section “Warning lights
and messages” in this Handbook.

SYMBOLS
Special coloured labels have been attached near or actually on some
of the components of your Lancia Idea. These labels bear symbols
that remind you of the precautions to be taken as regards that
particular component.
The plate summarising the symbols used can be found under the
bonnet.
THE LANCIA CODE SYSTEM
To further protect you car from theft, it has been fitted with an engine
immobilising system. This system is automatically activated when the
ignition key is removed.
An electronic device, in fact, is fitted in each ignition key grip. The
device transmits a radio-frequency signal when the engine is started
through a special aerial built into the ignition switch. The modulate
signal, which changes each time the engine is started, is the
“password”, by means of which the control unit recognises the key
and enables to start the engine.
OPERATION
Each time the car is started turning the ignition key to MAR, the
Lancia CODE system control unit sends a recognition code to the
engine control unit to deactivate the inhibitor.
The code is sent only if the Lancia CODE system control unit has
recognised the code transmitted from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to the STOP position, the Lancia
CODE system deactivates the functions of the engine electronic
control unit.

position and then back to MAR; if the lock
continues, possibly try again with the other key
provided with the car. If it is still not possible to
start the car, follow the instructions given in chapter
“In an emergency” and then contact a Lancia
Dealership.
IMPORTANT Every key has its own code, which
must be memorised by the system control unit. To
memorise new keys, up to a maximum of eight,
apply to Lancia Dealership.Warning light Ycoming on when driving
❒If the warning light
Yturns on, this means
that the system is running a self-test (for
example for a voltage drop). At the first stop,
turn the ignition key to STOP and then to MAR
again: if no failure is detected warning light
Ywill not come on.
❒If the warning light
Ystays on, repeat the
procedure described previously leaving the key
at STOP for over 30 seconds. Should the
inconvenience persists, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
❒If the warning light
Ystays on this means that
the code has not been recognised. In this case,
the key should be moved to the STOP position
and then back to MAR; if the lock continues,
possibly try again with the other key provided
with the car. If it is still not possible to start the
car, follow the instruction given in chapter “In
an emergency”) and then contact a Lancia
Dealership.
