COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE fig. 23
Warning light Aindicates overheating
of the engine coolant. In this case, stop
the engine and contact a Lancia Deal-
ership. This shows the temperature of
the engine coolant fluid and starts
working when the fluid temperature ex-
ceeds approx. 50°C. In normal condi-
tions, the needle may point to different
positions according to use and the en-
gine cooling system management.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to
the lowest value of the scale (low tem-
perature) and warning light Awill
light up to indicate a fault in the sys-
tem. Go to a Lancia Dealership to
have the system checked.
If the needle reaches the red
area, stop the engine imme-
diately and contact a Lan-
cia Dealership.

It is advisable to switch internal air
recirculation on while standing in
queues or in tunnels to prevent the in-
troduction of polluted air. Do not use
the function for a long time, particu-
larly if there are many occupants on
board, to prevent the windows from
misting up.
IMPORTANT The air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the
required heating or cooling condi-
tions faster. Do not use the air recir-
culation function on rainy/cold days
as it would considerably increase the
possibility of the windows misting in-
side. SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
Proceed as follows:
Turn the ring B-fig. 59(indicator
pointing to the red sector) rightwards
to turn the temperature up or left-
wards to turn it down;

This function may be used to heat up
the passenger compartment as fast as
possible and exploit the system po-
tential to the maximum. The function
uses the maximum coolant tempera-
ture while air and fan speed distribu-
tion are managed by the system ac-
cording to conditions.
Specifically, if the heating fluid is not
warm enough, the fan will not start
up at the maximum speed immedi-
ately to limit introducing excessively
cool air into the passenger compart-
ment.
All manual settings will be allowed
when this function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn
the temperature knob anticlockwise
and set the required temperature.
❒LOfunction (maximum cooling):
select by turning the temperature
knob anticlockwise under the mini-
mum value (16 °C). It can be oper-
ated from either by the driver or by
the front passenger (by selecting the
MONOfunction). This function is used to adjust the
temperature in the passenger com-
partment when the driver only is in
the car.
To go back to separate air and tem-
perature distribution in the two zones
of the passenger compartment, sim-
ply turn the knobs Hor press (A-
MONO) when the LED on the button
is on.
Turn the knobs either all to the right
or all to the left to the extreme HIor
LOpositions to use the maximum
heating or maximum cooling func-
tions:
❒HIfunction (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature
knob clockwise over the maximum
value (32 °C). It can be operated from
either by the driver or by the front
passenger (by selecting the MONO
function). CONTROLS

Turn the knobs clock-
wise or anticlockwise
to turn the tempera-
ture up or down in the
front left zone (knob
N) and the right zone
(knobH) of the pas-
senger compartment
respectively.
The system manages two passenger
compartment zones: the driver and
passenger can therefore select different
temperatures. The maximum differ-
ence between the two zones is 7°C.
The set temperature is shown on the
display near the knobs.
Press A(MONO) to automatically
align the temperature in the front pas-
senger zone to the driver’s side tem-
perature. The same temperature can
be set in both zones by turning knob

IMPORTANT The air recirculation
function makes it possible to reach the
required heating or cooling conditions
faster. It is however inadvisable to use
it on rainy/cold days as it would con-
siderably increase the possibility of
the windows misting inside, especially
if the climate control compressor is
off.
Recirculation is forced off (i.e. air is
introduced from the outside) when
the the outside temperature is colder
than 5-7°C to prevent misting up.Climate control

Press button
√when
the LED on the but-
ton is on, to turn the climate control
compressor off. The LED will go out.
Press the button when the LED is off
to restore automatically system con-
trol and use of the compressor. The
LED will light up on the button in
this case.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is switched
off to prevent misting up. Although
the system is capable of maintaining
the required temperature, the word
FULLwill disappear from the display.
If on the other hand the system can-
not maintain the required tempera-
ture, the digits will blink and the word
AUTOwill disappear.
IMPORTANT With the compressor
off, it is not possible to introduced air
cooler than ambient temperature into
the passenger compartment. Further-
more, in certain conditions, the win-
dows could mist up rapidly because
the air is not dehumidified.
It is advisable not to use
the air recirculation func-
tion when the outside temperature
is low to prevent the windows from
rapidly misting up.

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.

PRETENSIONERS
To increase the efficiency of the seat
belts, the car is fitted with preten-
sioners. These devices, in the event of
a violent crash, rewind the seat belts
a few centimetres. In this way they
ensure that the seat belt adheres per-
fectly to the wearer before the re-
straining action begins.
The seat belt locks to indicate that the
device has intervened; the seat belt
cannot be drawn back up even when
guiding it manually.The pretensioner can only
be used once. Go to a Lan-
cia Dealership to have it replaced
after is has been deployed. The ex-
piration date of the device is shown
on the label inside the upper odd-
ment compartment on passenger
side: go to a Lancia Dealership to
have the device replaced when the
expiration date approaches.
WARNING
Operations which lead to
knocks, vibrations or lo-
calised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of 6 hours)
in the area around the pretensioners
may cause damage or trigger them.
These devices are not affected by vi-
brations caused by irregularities of
the road surface or low obstacles
such as kerbs, etc. Contact a Lancia
Dealership for any assistance.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action
of the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
keeping it firmly close to the chest
and pelvis. A slight amount of smoke
may be detected during operation of
the pretensioners. This smoke is not
harmful and does not indicate a fire.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication.
Anything that modifies its original
conditions invalidates its efficiency.
If due to unusual natural events
(floods, seas storm, etc.) the device
has been affected by water and mud,
it must necessarily be replaced.
