sensor Lancia Musa 2008 Owner handbook (in English)

USE OF ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY MATERIALS
None of the components installed on LANCIA Musa contains asbestos. The padding and air conditioning system are
CFC-free (Chlorofluorocarbons), these gases being reliable for the depletion of the ozone layer. Dying agents and anti-
corrosion coating of the bolts and screws no longer contain cadmium, which pollutes the air and waterbeds.
EMISSION-REDUCING DEVICES (petrol engines)
Three-way catalytic converter (catalytic converter)
The exhaust system features a catalyst made with alloys of noble metals. It is installed in a stainless steel housing which
is resistant to high operating temperatures.
The catalyst converts the unburnt hydrocarbons, carbon oxide and nitrogen oxides that are present in the exhaust gases
(although in small quantities thanks to electronic injection ignition systems) into non-polluting compounds.
As the catalytic converter reaches high temperatures during car operation, we recommend that the car should not be
parked on materials that may pose a risk of flammability (e.g. paper, fuel oils, dry grass or leaves, etc.).
Lambda sensors
These sensors (Lambda) detect the oxygen content in the exhaust gases. Lambda sensors produce a signal which is
used by the electronic control unit of the injection and ignition system for regulating the air-fuel mix.
Fuel evaporation system
Even when the engine is not running, it is not possible to prevent the formation of petrol vapours. For this reason, a
system has been developed to “catch” these vapours in a special activated carbon vessel.
While the engine is running, these vapours are aspirated and delivered to combustion.

(unstable position). When released,
the stalk will return to its home posi-
tion.AUTOMATIC LIGHT SENSORS
(dusk sensor) (where provided)
This sensor detects any changes in the
external brightness according to the
sensitivity of the set light level: the
higher the sensitivity, the lower the
amount of external light needed to
switch the lights on. The sensitivity of
the dusk sensor is adjusted by means
of the “Setup menu” on the “Multi-
functional Display”.
Activation

ing on of the side/tail lights and low
beam lights simultaneously depend-
ing on the external brightness. “FOLLOW ME HOME”

This function allows the illumination
of the space in front of the car for a
preset period of time.
Activation
With the ignition key on STOPor re-
moved, pull the stalk towards the
steering wheel within 2 minutes from
when the engine is turned off.
At each single movement of the stalk,
the time in which the lights stay on is
extended by 30 seconds up to maxi-
mum 210 seconds. After this time, the
lights go off automatically.

(where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the
driving mirror in contact with the
windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjust the frequency of
the windscreen wiper strokes as to the
rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep the window clean
in the sensor area.
Activation
Move the right lever down by one

The activation of the rain sensor is
signalled by a control acquisition
“stroke”.
Turn the knurled ring F-fig. 73to in-
crease the rain sensor sensitivity.
The increase of the sensitivity of the
rain sensor is signalled by a control
and acquisition “stroke”.
By operating the windscreen washer
with the rain sensor enabled, a smart
washing cycle is carried out, without
the additional stroke after 5 seconds;
once completed, the sensor resumes its
regular automatic operation. “Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel (unstable position) to operate
the windscreen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more
than half a second, with just one
movement it is possible to operate the
washer jet and the wiper at the same
time.
When releasing the stalk, the jet stops
immediately, while the wiper carries
out another four strokes.
A further stroke after 6 seconds com-
pletes the wiping operation. Do not use the windscreen
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice from the wind-
screen. In such conditions,
the windscreen wiper may be sub-
jected to excessive stress and the
motor protection which prevents op-
eration for a few seconds may trip.
If the issue persists, contact the Lan-
cia Dealership.

PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper and their function is to in-
form the driver, through an intermit-
tent buzzer, of the presence of obsta-
cles behind the car.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically acti-
vated when the reverse gear is en-
gaged. As the distance from the ob-
stacle behind the car decreases, the
acoustic alarm becomes more fre-
quent.Detection distances
The central radius of action varies ac-
cording to the engine/ trim of the car:
The recognition area is equivalent to
140 cm, while for small obstacles (or
in the case of parking bollards which
have a rounded shape) it is equivalent
to 70 cm. The lateral radius of action
has a recognition area of 60 cm.
If several obstacles are detected, the
control unit indicates the nearest one.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
See “Warning lights and messages”
section.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The system is programmed to deacti-
vate automatically when the trailer
electric cable plug is fitted into the car
tow hook socket.
Sensors are reactivated on removing
the trailer cable plug. BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an
intermittent acoustic signal is auto-
matically activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒becomes louder as the reduction of
distance between the car and the
obstacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the dis-
tance between the car and the ob-
stacle is less than 30 cm and stops
immediately if the distance in-
creases;
❒iremains constant if the distance
between vehicle and obstacle re-
mains unvaried; if this situation
concerns the side sensors, the
buzzer will stop after about 3 sec-
onds to avoid, for example, warn-
ing indications in the event of ma-
noeuvres along walls.

CAR REFUELLING
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the
fuel filler is too small to introduce the
beak of a leaded petrol pump. The
petrol octane rating (RON) must not
be lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst
leads to harmful exhaust emissions,
thus contributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amounts or in an emer-
gency, as this would damage the cat-
alyst beyond repair. GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost
care to avoid obstacles that may
be located above or below the
sensors.
❒Objects located near the rear of
the car, under certain circum-
stances are not detected and could
therefore cause damage to the car
or be damaged.
❒Indications sent by the sensors
can be altered by dirt, snow or ice
deposited on the sensors or by ul-
trasound systems (e.g.: truck
pneumatic brakes or pneumatic
hammers) nearby the car. To guarantee the effective
operation of the system, the
sensors must be kept clean
at all times. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the sensors
while cleaning them. Avoid using
dry, rough or hard cloths. Clean the
sensors with clean water with the
addition of car shampoo if neces-
sary. At car wash centres that use
steam or high pressure water jets,
clean the sensors quickly keeping the
nozzle more than 10 cm away.
The driver is, however, al-
ways held responsible for
parking and other dangerous ma-
noeuvres. When carrying out this
manoeuvre, ensure that there are
no people, animals or object within
the manoeuvring area. Parking
sensors are designed to assist dri-
vers: in all cases, you must always
pay the utmost attention during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres.
