The research results in relation to the
best protection for children is illus-
trated in European standard ECE-
R44 which divides the restraint sys-
tems into five groups in addition to
making their use compulsory:
Group 0 - up to 10 kg in weight
Group 0+ - up to 13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg in weight
As it may be noted, the groups over-
lap partly and, in fact, in commerce it
is possible to find devices that cover
more than one weight group.
All restraint devices must bear the
type-approval data along with the
control mark on a label that must be
firmly secured to the child seat and
must never be removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point
of view of restraint systems, children
are considered as adults and must
wear the seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Lancia includes child
seats for each weight group. These de-
vices are recommended having been
specifically designed for Lancia cars.
SEVERE DANGER: do not
arrange child seats on the
front seat facing backwards if the
passenger’s front airbag is enabled.
Deployment of the airbag in the
event of an accident could cause fa-
tal injuries to the baby. It is advis-
able to carry children on the back
seat, which is the most protected po-
sition in the event of an accident.
Under no circumstances should
child seats be fitted on the front seat
if the car is equipped with an airbag
on the passenger side, because if the
airbag is deployed, it may cause fa-
tal injuries to the baby regardless of
the severity of the crash causing the
deployment.
WARNING
On cars supplied with a de-
activation system for the
front passenger airbag,
children can sit on the front
seat, when required.
In this case, however, make
sure that the airbag is actually de-
activated by checking the amber
warning light on the panel (see the
paragraph “front airbag on passen-
ger side” in the section on both front
and side airbags). Move the pas-
senger’s seat as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child
seat and the dashboard.

Below is a summary of the safety
rules to be followed for carrying
children:
❒The recommended position for in-
stalling the child seat is on the rear
seat, as it is the most protected
area in the event of a crash.
❒If the passenger’s air bag is deac-
tivated (where provided) always
check that the amber “warning
light on the panel is permanently
on to indicate actual airbag deac-
tivation.
❒Thoroughly follow the instructions
that must be provided by the
manufacturer with the child seat.
Keep the instructions in the car
along with the other papers and
this handbook. Do not use child
seats without instructions.
❒Pull the belt to make sure that the
seat belt is properly hooked.❒Only one child must sit on the
child seat: never let two children
sit on it simultaneously.
❒Always check that the seat belts do
not run around the child’s neck.
❒While travelling, do not let the
child sit incorrectly or release the
belts.
❒Never carry children, nor even in-
fants, on your lap. No-one, how-
ever strong, can hold a child in the
case of an accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace
the child’s seat with a new one. ISOFIX
CHILD RESTRAINT
ASSEMBLY SETUP
Provision has been made on the car to
mount a Universal Isofix child re-
straint system, a new European stan-
dardised system for carrying children
safely.
Isofix systems can be mounted simul-
taneously with a traditional restraint
system.
An example of child seat is shown in
fig. 14.
The Universal Isofix child seat covers
weight group: 1.
Specific Isofix child seats cover the
other weight groups. These seats must
be designed, tested and type-ap-
proved specifically for this car (refer
to the list of cars attached to the child
seat).
Do not arrange child seats
on the front seat in cars fit-
ted with an airbag on the passenger
side. Children must never travel on
the front seat.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is supplied with front airbags
for both the driver and passenger, and
window bags (head protection sys-
tem). On driver’s request, it can be
supplied with front side airbags.
The front airbags (for driver and pas-
senger) have been designed to protect
the passengers sitting on the front
seats in the event of head-on crashes
of medium-high severity, by placing
the bag between the person and the
steering wheel or dashboard.
Non-deployment of the airbags dur-
ing other types of collisions (side col-
lisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not necessarily indicate a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the
bag to inflate in the event of a frontal
crash. The bag inflates instanta-
neously placing itself between the
front passenger’s body and the struc-
tures which could cause injury. It de-
flates immediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of, but comple-
mentary to the seat belts, which you
are always recommended to wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most
non-European countries.
In the event of a collision, a person
not wearing the seat belt may bethrown forward and come into con-
tact with the bag before it has fully
opened. The protection offered by the
bag is reduced in such a case.
Front airbags may not be activated in
the following situations:
❒during collisions against highly de-
formable objects that do not affect
the car front surface (e.g. bumper
collision against guard rail, heaps
of gravel, etc.);
❒jamming of the car underneath
other vehicles or protective barri-
ers (e.g. underneath a truck or a
guard rail); in this case, the bags
would offer no additional protec-
tion with respect to the seat belt
and their deployment is unneces-
sary. In these cases non-deploy-
ment of the airbag does not neces-
sarily indicate a system malfunc-
tion.
The front airbags on the driver’s and
passenger’s sides are designed and cal-
ibrated to protect the front seat pas-
sengers who wear the safety belts. The
volume of front airbags at max. infla-
tion fills most of the space between
the steering wheel and the driver and
between the dashboard and the pas-
senger.FRONT AIRBAG ON DRIVER’S
SIDE fig. 17
It consists of an instant-inflating bag

FRONT AIRBAG ON
PASSENGER’S SIDE fig. 18
It consists of an instant-inflating bag
contained into a special recess Ain the
dashboard. The bag is larger in vol-
ume than the airbag on the driver’s
side. The airbags are not deployed in
the event of collisions of low severity
(for which the withholding action of
the seat belts is sufficient). For this
reason, the seat belt must be worn at
all times. During side collisions the
seat belts hold passengers in the cor-
rect position and prevent ejection
from the car during very violent col-
lisions.
Do not apply stickers/decals
or other objects on the
steering wheel, in area A-fig. 18 on
the passenger side airbag or side up-
holstery on the roof side. Do not
place objects (e.g. cell phones) on
the passenger side dashboard, be-
cause they could interfere with cor-
rect deployment of the passenger
airbag and cause severe injury to the
persons in the car.
WARNING
SEVERE DANGER: do not
arrange child seats facing
backwards if the front airbag on the
passenger’s side is enabled. Airbag
deployment during a crash may
cause fatal injuries to the child.
WARNING
If the car is equipped with
a deactivation system for
the front passenger airbag,
disable it whenever the
child seat needs to be
mounted on the front seat.
Move the passenger’s seat as far
back as possible to avoid contact be-
tween the child seat and the dash-
board. Although this is not manda-
tory by law, the airbag should be
immediately reactivated when chil-
dren are no longer carried to ensure
better protection to adults.

Side bags are not a replacement of,
but complementary to the seat belts,
which you are always recommended
to wear, as specified by law in Europe
and in most non-European countries.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side
crash, the system provides best pro-
tection if the passenger sits on the seat
in a correct position, thus allowing
correct window bag deployment.
IMPORTANT The front airbags
and/or side bags are deployed also if
the car is subject to strong collisions
or accidents involving the underbody
area, such as violent shocks against
steps, kerbs or low obstacles, falling
of the car in big holes or sags in the
road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust
is released when the airbags are de-
ployed. The dust is not harmful and
does not indicate the beginning of a
fire. Furthermore, the surface of the
deployed bag and the interior of the
car may be covered with residual
dust. This dust may irritate the skin
and the eyes. Use mild soap and wa-
ter to wash the parts of your body ex-
posed to this dust.The pyrotechnic charge of the airbag
system lasts for 14 years; the spiral
contact 10 years. Go to a Lancia
Dealership to have the devices re-
placed when the expiration date ap-
proaches.
IMPORTANT Should an accident oc-
cur activating any of the safety de-
vices, take the car to a Lancia Deal-
ership to have the activated devices
replaced and the system checked.
Airbag checking, repair and replace-
ment must only be carried out c/o the
Lancia Dealership.
If you are having the car scrapped,
have the airbag system deactivated at
a Lancia Dealership first. If the car
changes ownership, the new owner
must be informed of how to use the
airbags and the above warnings: s/he
must also be given this “Owner’s
Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front
airbags and front side bags are de-
ployed differently according to the
type of collision. Non-deployment of
one of the devices does not necessar-
ily indicate a system malfunction.
Do not rest the head, arms
or elbows on the door, win-
dows and window bag area to avoid
possible injuries during inflation.
Never lean head, arms and elbows
out of the window.
WARNING
If the warning light ¬does
not turn on or stays on dur-
ing car travel when turning the key
to MAR, a failure may be present in
the restraint systems. If this is the
case, the airbags or pretensioners
may not be deployed after an impact
or, in a minor number of cases, they
may be deployed accidentally. Con-
tact a Lancia Dealership immedi-
ately to have the system checked.
Do not cover the front seat backrest
with upholstery or seat covers that
hinder deployment of the side bag.
