The car can be driven using the me-
chanical steering in case of failure to
the electric power steering system.
Take the car to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT The steering may be-
fore stiffer when parking requiring a
lot of steering. This is normal and
caused by the electric control motor
overheating system. No repairs are
needed. The power steering system
will start working properly again the
next time the car is used. PARKING SENSORS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper and their function is to in-
form the driver, through an intermit-
tent buzzer, about the presence of ob-
stacles 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.
fig. 114L0D0419m
Under no circumstances
should aftermarket opera-
tions involving steering system or
steering column modifications (e.g.:
installation of anti-theft device) be
carried out that could badly affect
performance and safety. This also
causes the warranty to become null
and void and results in vehicle non-
compliance with type-approval re-
quirements.
WARNING
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Electric power steering failure is indi-
cated by the turning on of warning
light
gon the instrument panel to-
gether with the dedicated message on
the multifunctional display (where
provided), (see section “Warning
lights and messages”).
Before starting any main-
tenance operation, stop the
engine and remove the key from the
ignition switch to operate the steer-
ing lock, particularly when the car
is lifted off the ground. If this is
not possible (i.e. if the key must be
kept in the MAR position or the en-
gine must be kept running), remove
the main electric power steering
system fuse.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is provided with front airbags
for the driver and passenger and win-
dow bags (head protection system). It
may be provided with optional front
side bags.
The front driver / passenger air bags
have been designed to protect the oc-
cupants in the event of head-on
crashes of medium-high severity, by
placing the cushion between the oc-
cupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Front air bags are designed to protect
car’s occupants in front crashes and
therefore non-activation in other types
of collisions (side collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make
the bag inflate in the event of a frontal
crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously
placing itself between the front occu-
pant’s body and the structures which
could cause injury. It will deflate im-
mediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but complemen-
tary to the belts, which you are rec-
ommended to always wear, as speci-
fied by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.In the event of a collision, a person
not wearing a seat belt may be thrown
forward and con into contact with the
bag before it has fully opened. The
protection offered by the cushion is
reduced in such a case.
Front air bag may not be activated in
the following situations:
❒in collisions against highly de-
formable objects not affecting the
car front surface (e.g. bumper col-
lision against guard rail, 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. No deployment in such cases
is consequently not the sign of a
fault.
The front airbags (driver and passen-
ger) are designed and calibrated to
protect front seat occupants who are
wearing seat belts. The volume of
front air bags at max. inflation fills
most of the space between the steer-
ing wheel and the driver and between
the dashboard and the passenger.FRONT AIR BAG ON DRIVER’S
SIDE, fig. 17
It consists of an instant-inflating cush-
ion contained in a special recess in the
centre of the steering wheel.

SAFETY
Always drive holding your
hands on the steering
wheel rim so that the airbag can
inflate freely in the case of need.
Do not drive with your body bent
forward. Keep your back straight
against the back rest. Have the
airbag system checked by a Lan-
cia Dealership if the car was
stolen, if theft was attempted, or if
the car was subjected to vandalism
or flooding.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying ob-
jects in your lap, in front
of your chest or between your lips
(pipe, pencils, etc.): they could
cause severe injury if the airbag is
deployed.
WARNING
The airbag deployment
threshold is higher than
that of the pretensioners. For col-
lisions in the range between the
two thresholds, it is normal for
only the pretensioners to be acti-
vated.
WARNING
When the key is turned to
MAR warning light
“(with passenger front airbag acti-
vated) will blink for a few seconds
to remind you that the airbag will
be deployed in the event of a colli-
sion after which it should go out.
WARNING
Do not wash the seats
with pressurised water or
steam (by hand or in automatic
seat washing stations).
WARNING
An airbag is not a replace-
ment for the seat belts but
increases their efficiency. Further-
more, since front airbags are not
deployed in low speed collisions,
side collisions, rear-end shunts or
roll-overs, the occupants are only
protected by the seat belts which
must be fastened at all times.
WARNING
Do not attach rigid objects
to the coat hooks and sup-
port handles.
WARNING
Airbags may be deployed
if another vehicle crashes
if the key is inserted and at MAR
also if the engine is not running
and the car is stationary. For this
reason, children must never sit on
the front seat, even if the car is not
moving. On the other hand, if the
key is inserted and at STOP, none
of the safety devices (airbag or
pretensioners) will be deployed in
a collision. Non deployment of the
devices in this case does not indi-
cate a system fault.

BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by push-
ing, towing or driving downhill. This
could cause a flow of fuel into the cat-
alytic converter and damage it beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the
brake servo and the electric power
steering system are not activated un-
til the engine is started, a greater ef-
fort will therefore be required to press
the brake pedal or turn the steering
wheel.
Indicate that the car is
standing according to the
laws in force: emergency lights, re-
fracting warning triangle, etc. Pas-
sengers should leave the car, partic-
ularly if it is very loaded, and wait
for the wheel to be changed away
from on-coming traffic. Arrange
wedges or other suitable material
under the wheels to block the car on
slopes or rough roads.

IN AN
EMERGENCY
The driving features of the
car may change when a
space saver spare wheel is fitted.
Avoid sudden acceleration and
braking, sudden steering and fast
cornering. The total life of a space
saver spare wheel is approxi-
mately 3000 km, after which it
must be replaced by another wheel
of the same type. Never install a
traditional tyre on a space saver
spare wheel rim. Repair and refit
the standard wheel as soon as pos-
sible. Only one space saver spare
can be used at a time. Do not ap-
ply grease to the bolt threading be-
fore assembly: the bolts could come
loose unexpectedly.
WARNING
The jack may only be used
to replace wheels on the
car which it equips or other cars of
the same model. Never use the jack
for other purposes, such as lifting
other car models. Never use the
jack to carry out repairs under the
car. Incorrect positioning of the
jack may cause the car to fall. Do
not use the jack for loads higher
than those shown on the label.
Snow chains cannot be fitted on a
space saver spare wheel. There-
fore, if a front wheel (drive wheel)
is punctured and you need to use
snow chains, swap with a rear
wheel. In this way, you will have
two normal wheels on the front on
which you can fit snow chains and
solve the emergency.
WARNING
Incorrect wheel cup as-
sembly may cause it to
come off when the car is travelling.
Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any
kind between rim and tyre. Check
tyre and space saver spare wheel
pressure regularly referring to the
values shown in the “Technical
Specifications” chapter.

REPLACING FUSES
INTRODUCTION fig. 35
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action
(i.e. it cuts off) mainly due to a fault
or improper action on the system.
Check the efficiency of the corre-
sponding fuse when a device does not
work: the conducting element Amust
not be interrupted. If it is, replace the
blown fuse with another with the
same amperage (same colour).
B: intact fuse
C: fuse with damaged filament.
Use the tongs Din the fusebox on the
dashboard to change a fuse.
fig. 35L0D0198m
If a fuse blows again, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
Never replace a fuse with
another of higher amper-
age: FIRE RISK.
If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-
FUSE, MAXI-FUSE) blows, con-
tact your Lancia Dealership
WARNING
Remove the key from the
ignition switch and switch
off all loads before replacing a
fuse.
WARNING
If a general protection fuse
for safety systems (air bag
system, braking system), power
unit systems (engine system, trans-
mission system) or steering system
is triggered, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
