ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability Program)
(where provided)
The ESP system is an electronic system controlling
the car stability in the event of tyre grip loss.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful
when grip conditions of the road surfaces change.
ESP SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is indicated by the blinking of the warning light
áon the instrument panel, to inform the driver that
the car is in critical stability and grip conditions.
The performance of the system, in terms of active
safety should not induce the driver to take pointless
and unnecessary risks. The style of driving must in
any case always be adapted to the conditions of the
road surface, visibility and traffic. Road safety is
always the driver’s responsibility. ESP SYSTEM OPERATION
The ESP system is automatically inserted when the
car is started and cannot be deactivated.
FAILURE WARNINGS
In the event of failure, the ESP system is
automatically disconnected and the warning light
áwill come on with fixed light on the instrument
panel together with the message on the
multifunction display. In this case contact a Lancia
Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
The performance of the system, in terms of active safety should not induce the
driver to take pointless and unnecessary risks. The style of driving must in any
case always be adapted to the conditions of the road surface, visibility and
traffic. Road safety is always the driver’s responsibility.

HILL HOLDER SYSTEM (where provided)
It is an integral part of the ESP system and
facilitates starting on an uphill slope.
It is automatically activated in the following
conditions:
Uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with gradient
above 2%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals
pressed and gearbox in neutral position or gear
engaged (reverse excluded).
Downhill: stationary on a road with gradient above
2%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals
pressed and reverse engaged.
During pickup the ESP system control unit
maintains the wheel braking pressure until the
engine torque required for start up is reached, or
anyway for a maximum of 2 seconds, so that the
right foot can be moved easily from the brake pedal
to the accelerator pedal.After 2 seconds and without starting the car, the
system automatically deactivates gradually releasing
the braking pressure. During this phase it is possible
to hear the typical brake mechanical disengaging
noise which indicates the car is about to move off.
Failure warnings
In the event of failure, the instrument cluster
warning light
*will come on together with the
message on the multifunction display.
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a
parking brake therefore, never leave the car without
engaging the parking brake, the first gear and
turning the engine off.

WARNING
During the use of the spare wheel, the ESP system carries on working.
However, you must remind that the spare wheel presents dimensions smaller
than the standard tyre and therefore the grip is reduced as to the other car
tyres.
WARNING
For correct operation of the ESP system, the tyres must absolutely be of the same
brand and type on all wheels, in perfect conditions and, above all, of the type,
brand and size specified.

SWITCHING ON/OFF OF THE ASR SYSTEM
The ASR function switches on automatically each time the engine is
started.
When travelling, the ASR system can be switched off and on again by
pressing the ASR switch on the central control panel.
Switching on is indicated by the relevant message on the
multifunction display (where provided).
When the device is switched off this is shown by the lighting up of the
led on the ASR button and by the message on the multifunction
display .
If the ASR function is switched off when travelling, it will turn on
again automatically the next time the engine is started
When travelling on snow with snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR device off: in fact, in these conditions, slipping of the driving
wheels when moving off makes it possible to obtain better drive.

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis)
allows continuos diagnosis of the components of the
car correlated with emissions.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on the warning
lightUon the instrument panel (together, where
provided, with the message on the reconfigurable
multifunction display - see the “Warning lights”
chapter) when these components are no longer in
peak conditions.
The objective is:
❒to keep system efficiency under control;
❒to warn when a fault causes emission levels to
increase;
❒to warn of the need to replace deteriorated
components.The system also has a diagnostic connector that can
be interfaced with appropriate tools, which makes it
possible to read the error codes stored in the control
unit, together with a series of specific parameters
for engine operation and diagnosis. This check can
also be carried out by the traffic police.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the inconvenience,
to check the system completely, Lancia Dealerships
are obliged to run a bench test and, if necessary,
road tests which may also call for a long journey.
If turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning light Udoes not turn on or if, while travelling, it
turns on glowing steadily or flashing, (on some versions together with the message on the
reconfigurable multifunction display), contact Lancia Dealership as soon as possible. The
operation of warning light Ucan be checked by the traffic police. Attain to the rules enforced in
the country where the car is being used.

IMPORTANT NOTES ON TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (T.P.M.S.)
IMPORTANT Failure indications will not be stored
and therefore will not be displayed when turning
the engine off and on again. If failure persists, the
control unit will send warning indications to the
instrument panel only after a few seconds when the
car is moving.
IMPORTANT T.P.M.S. system cannot indicate
sudden tyre pressure drops (e.g.: tyre burst).
In this event, brake the car cautiously and avoid
sudden steering.
IMPORTANT Cross switching of rear tyres with
front tyres or replacing standard tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa involves T.P.M.S. system set-up
that shall be performed at Lancia Dealerships only.IMPORTANT The T.P.M.S. system requires specific
equipment. Apply to Lancia Dealerships for
compatible accessories (wheels, wheel caps, etc.).
Other accessories could impair regular system
operation.
Due to the particular valve characteristics, use only
Lancia-approved tyre repair sealing fluids. Other
products could impair regular system operation.
IMPORTANT Tyre pressure could change according
to outside temperature. For this reason the T.P.M.S.
system could temporarily indicate low tyre pressure.
In this event check pressure with cold tyres and
restore proper inflation values if required.
IMPORTANT If the car is fitted with T.P.M.S.
system, tyre and/or rim changing should be
performed adopting special precautions. To avoid
bad installation of sensors or damages, have these
operations performed by Lancia Dealership
qualified personnel only.
IMPORTANT If after repairing a punctured tyre
with the Fix&Go kit and restoring the initial
conditions the flat tyre warning light continues to
stay on, contact Lancia Dealership.

“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
SYSTEM
The car is fitted with an electrically controlled power steering called
“Dualdrive”. It only works when the ignition key is at MAR and the
engine is running and it can be customised by the driver according to
the driving conditions.
ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION (CITY function)
To turn this function on/off, press the CITY button located in the
middle of the instrument panel.
On some versions the activation of this function is signalled by the
lighting up of the CITY warning light on the instrument panel, on
others by the lighting up of CITY on the reconfigurable multifunction
display.
With the CITY function, the steering wheel will be lighter and require
less effort for parking. This operating strategy is suitable for driving
in cities.

It is absolutely forbidden to carry out whatever after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and safety.
WARNING
WARNING
Be careful when mounting additional spoilers, alloy rims and non original wheel
caps: they may reduce the brake ventilation and efficiency during sharp and
repeated braking or sloping downhill. Also make sure that nothing (over-
carpeting, etc.) interferes with the pedal stroke.

FAILURE WARNINGS
Any electric power steering failure is indicated by
cluster warning light gcoming on (together, with
the message on the multifunction display - see the
“Warning lights” chapter).
In the event of electric power steering failure, the
car can be driven with mechanical steering to the
closest Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANT The steering may become slightly stiff
following parking manoeuvres including a great
deal of steering. This is normal and caused by the
system to prevent motor overheating. No servicing is
required. The electrical power steering system will
return to normal operation the next time the car is
used.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing petrol engine emissions are the following:
❒three-way catalytic converter;
❒Lambda sensor;
❒fuel evaporation system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test, with one or more spark plugs disconnected.
The devices for curtailing diesel fuel engine emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for 1.3 Multijet 90 HP version)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, integral with the exhaust system, that physically traps
particulates present in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines. The diesel particular filter has been adopted to
eliminate almost totally particulates in compliance with current / future law regulations. During normal use
of the vehicle, the engine control unit records a set of data (e.g.: travel time, type of route, temperatures, etc.)
and it will then calculate how much particulates has been trapped by the filter. Since this filter physically
traps particulates, it shall be cleaned (reclaimed) at regular intervals by burning carbon particles.
Reclaiming procedure is controlled automatically by the engine control unit according to the filter conditions
and the conditions of use of the vehicle. During reclaiming the following phenomena could take place: idling
slight increase, fan activation, slight smoke increase, high exhaust temperatures. These situations shall not be
considered as faults and they do not affect vehicle performance and environment. If the dedicated message
is displayed, refer to paragraph “Warning lights and messages”.

To return to manual mode, set the gear lever back to A/M.
With the car stationary and the key removed, it is possible to shift the
lever with/without the brake pedal pressed. The system will perform
no actuation when shifting the lever and the gear engaged will be the
one stored before removing the ignition key.
IMPORTANT With the engine off and the car stationary, any error
between lever position and gear engaged is indicated by warning light
(è) coming on for a few seconds on the instrument panel together
with the message on the multifunction display.

MANUAL OPERATION (MANUAL)
In this operating mode, the decision to change gear
is left to the driver who decides the most
appropriate moment.
To change gears in MANUAL operating mode
proceed as follows:
❒move lever to + (UP) to engage higher gear;
or
❒move lever to – (DOWN) to engage lower gear.
The system will cut in automatically preventing
gearshifting only if the request to change gear will
impair regular engine and transmission operation;
the system will also shift down gears automatically
when the engine (e.g.: at slowing down).The system will warn the driver that the required
gear will not be engaged through the sound of the
buzzer and a dedicated message on the
multifunction display (see paragraph “Warning
lights and messages”).
