Side bags are not a replacement of but
complementary to the belts, which
you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and
most non-European countries.
IMPORTANT In the event of side
crash, you can obtain the best protec-
tion by the system keeping a correct
position on the seat, allowing thus a
correct window bag unfolding.
IMPORTANT The front air bags
and/or side bags may be deployed if
the car is subject to heavy knocks or
accidents involving the underbody
area, such as for example violent
shocks, against steps, kerbs or low ob-
stacles, falling of the car in big holes
or sags in the road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust
will be released when the airbags are
deployed. 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 in a dusty residue:
this dust may irritate the skin and the
eyes. Wash with mild soap and water
in the event of exposure.The airbag system expires after 14
years (charge) and 10 years (clock
contact). Go to a Lancia Dealership to
have the devices replaced when the
expiration date approaches.
IMPORTANT Should an accident oc-
cur in which any of the safety devices
is activated, take the car to a Lancia
Dealership to have the devices acti-
vated replaced and to have the system
checked.
All inspection, repair and replacement
operations concerning the air bags
must only be carried out at a Lancia
Dealership.
If you are having the car scrapped,
have the air bag system deactivated at
a Lancia Dealership first. If the car
changes ownership, the new owner
must be informed of the method of
use of air bags and the above warn-
ings and also be given this “Owner’s
Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front
airbags and front side bags are de-
ployed according to different logics on
the basic of the type of collision. Non
deployment of one of the devices does
not therefore indicate a system fault.
Do not rest your head,
arms or elbows on the door,
on the windows and in the window
bag area to prevent injury in case of
deployment.
Never lean head, arms and elbows
out of the window.
WARNING
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light ¬does not turn on or if it stays on
when travelling (together with the
message on the multifunctional
display, for versions/markets,
where provided) there could be a
failure in safety systems; in this
event air bags or pretensioners
may not be deployed in case of im-
pact or, in a minor number of
cases, they be deployed acciden-
tally. Contact Lancia Dealership
immediately to have the system
checked.
Do not cover the backrest of the
front seats with covers which are
not suitable for use with side bags.

chapterin the event of a failure in-
dication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications on
the display fall into either of two cat-
egories:seriousfaults and less seri-
ousfaults.
A warning cycle will be repeated in
case of severefailures until the case
of the problem is eliminated.
A shorter warning cycle will be run in
case of less severefaults.
PressMODEto stop the warning cy-
cle in both cases. The warning light
on the instrument panel will stay on
until the cause of the fault is elimi-
nated.LOW BRAKE FLUID

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light ¬does not turn on or if it stays on
when travelling (together with the
message on the multifunctional
display, where provided) there
could be a failure in safety sys-
tems; in this event air bags or pre-
tensioners may not be deployed in
case of impact or, in a minor num-
ber of cases, they be deployed ac-
cidentally. Contact Lancia Dealer-
ship immediately to have the sys-
tem checked.
Failure of warning light
¬is indicated by warning
light“which will blink for longer
than the normal 4 seconds indicat-
ing that the front passenger airbag
is off. The airbag system will au-
tomatically deactivate the passen-
ger airbag (front and side, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided). In
this case, warning light
¬may not
indicate fault to the system. Con-
tact Lancia Dealership immedi-
ately to have the system checked.
WARNING
WARNING
HOT ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after
a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on, proceed
as follows:
❒during normal travel: stop the
car, stop the engine and check that
the water level in the vessel is not
under the MINline. In this case,
wait for a few minutes for the en-
gine to cool down when slowly and
carefully open the cap, top-up with
coolant and check that the level is
between the MINandMAXrefer-
ences on the vessel itself. Also check
for leakages. Go to a Lancia Deal-
ership if the warning should come
on when the engine is started again.
u
❒In the case of demanding use
(e.g. towing trailers uphill or car at
full load): slow down and stop the
car if the warning light stays on.
Stand for 2 or 3 minutes with the
engine running and slightly acceler-
ated to promote a better circulation
of coolant. Then stop the engine.
Check correct liquid level as de-
scribed above.
IMPORTANT After taxing operation,
it is advisable to keep the engine on
and slightly accelerated for a few min-
utes before switching it off.
The display will show the dedicated
message.

LIGHT STAYS ON:
LOW ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE (red)
FLASHING LIGHT:
EXHAUSTED ENGINE OIL
(only Multijet versions
with DPF - red)
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR (ON), the warning light switches
on and should go out as soon as the
engine is started.
1. Low engine oil pressure
The warning light turns on and stays
on constantly (for versions/markets,
where provided) along with the mes-
sage on the display when the system
detects that engine oil pressure is low.
v
2. Exhausted engine oil
(only Multijet versions
with DPF)
The warning light will flash and
a specific message will appear on the
display (for versions/markets, where
provided). The warning light may
flash in the following ways, depend-
ing on the version:
– for 1 minute every two hours;
– for 3 minute cycles with the warn-
ing light off for intervals of 5 seconds
until oil is changed.
After the initial warning, each time
the engine is started up, the warning
light will continue to flash in the
above mentioned modes, until the oil
is changed. A specific message will
appear on the display (for versions/
markets, where provided) in addition
to the warning light.
If the warning light flashes, this does
not mean that the car is defective but
simply informs the driver that it is
now necessary to change the oil as
a result of regular vehicle use.
If the warning light v
turns on when the vehicle
is travelling (on certain versions
together with the message on the
display) stop the engine immedi-
ately and contact a Lancia Deal-
ership.
WARNING
Note that engine oil is exhausted faster
under the following circumstances:
– use of the vehicle prevalently for city
driving, requiring more frequent re-
generation of DPF
– use of the vehicle for short drives, in
which the engine does not have time
to reach its regular operating temper-
ature
– repeated interruption of the regen-
eration process, signalled by the DPF
warning light coming on.
WARNING
Exhausted engine oil should
be replaced as soon as pos-
sible after the warning light comes
on, never more than 500 km after
the warning light first comes on.
Failure to change the oil within the
first 500 km may result in severe
damage to the engine and will re-
sult in forfeiture of the warranty.
Remember that when the warning
light flashes, it does not mean that
the level of engine oil is low, so if
the light flashes you must not top
up.

the driver. To switch the warning
light off, the car must stay in motion
until regeneration has been com-
pleted. The process normally takes
about 15 minutes. The optimum con-
ditions to end the process are achieved
by keeping the car in motion up to
60km/h with an engine speed higher
than 2,000 rpm. This light coming on
is not a car defect and therefore the
car does not need to go to the work-
shop. A specific message will appear
on the display when the warning light
comes on (for versions/markets, where
provided).
WARNING
Always drive at a speed
appropriate to the traffic
conditions, the weather and speed
limits. The engine may be turned
off while the DPF light is on; how-
ever, repeated interruption of the
regeneration process may result in
premature exhaustion of engine oil.
For this reason it is always advis-
able to wait for the light to go off
before turning off the engine, fol-
lowing the instructions appearing
above. It is not advisable to com-
plete DPF regeneration with the
vehicle stationary
