REAR SEAT CUPHOLDERS
The rear seat cupholders are located
in the center armrest between the rear
seats. The cupholders are positioned
forward in the armrest and side-by-
side to provide convenient access to
beverage cans or bottles while main-
taining a resting place for the rear
occupant's elbows.
Lighted Cupholders
On some vehicles the rear cupholders
are equipped with a light ring that
illuminates the cupholders for the
rear passengers. The light ring is con-
trolled by the Dimmer Control. Refer
to “Lights” in “Understanding The
Features Of Your Vehicle” for further
information.STORAGE

EQUIPPED WITH 60/40
SPLIT-FOLDING REAR
SEAT
The 60/40 split-folding rear seat pro-
vides cargo-carrying versatility. The
seatbacks fold down easily by pulling
nylon tabs between the seatbacks and
the bolsters. When the seats are folded
down, they provide a continuous,
nearly-flat extension of the load floor.
When the seatback is folded to the
upright position, make sure it is
latched by strongly pulling on the top
of the seatback above the seat strap.

WARNING!
 Be certain that the seatback issecurely locked into position. If
the seatback is not securely
locked into position, the seat will
not provide the proper stability
for child seats and/or passengers.
An improperly latched seat could
cause serious injury.
 The cargo area in the rear of the vehicle (with the rear seatbacks
in the locked-up or folded down
position) should not be used as a
play area by children when the
vehicle is in motion. They could
be seriously injured in a collision.
Children should be seated and us-
ing the proper restraint system.
 To help protect against personal injury, passengers should not be
seated in the rear cargo area. The
rear cargo space is intended for
load carrying purposes only, not
for passengers, who should sit in
seats and use seat belts.
WARNING!
The weight and position of cargo
and passengers can change the ve-
hicle center of gravity and vehicle
handling. To avoid loss of control
resulting in personal injury, follow
these guidelines for loading your
vehicle:
Always place cargo evenly on the
cargo floor. Put heavier objects as
low and as far forward as possible. Place as much cargo as possible infront of the rear axle. Too much
weight or improperly placed
weight over or behind the rear
axle can cause the rear of the ve-
hicle to sway.
 Do not pile luggage or cargo
higher than the top of the seat-
back. This could impair visibility
or become a dangerous projectile
in a sudden stop or collision. CARGO AREA FEATURES
TRUNK MAT (for versions/
markets, where provided)
A trunk mat covers the bottom of the
cargo area. The trunk mat is used to
protect the interior of the trunk from
mud, snow, and debris.
GROCERY BAG HOOKS
(for versions/markets
where provided)
The rear cargo area is equipped with
grocery bag hooks, located on either
side of the rear cargo area.

If the sunshade is in the raised posi-
tion and the vehicle is placed in
REVERSE, the sunshade will auto-
matically fully lower. When the trans-
mission is shifted out of REVERSE
the sunshade will automatically re-
turn to the fully raised position after
approximately five seconds.
NOTE: The rear sunshade con-
trol switch can be locked out with
the rear passenger window con-
trols from the driver switch win-
dow lockout switch.The power sunshade can also be oper-
ated by passengers in the rear seats.
The power sunshade switch is located
on the back of the center console be-
tween the heated seat switches. Press
the switch once to raise the sunshade.
Press the switch a second time to
lower the sunshade.LOAD LEVELING
SYSTEM
The automatic load leveling system
will provide a level-riding vehicle un-
der most passenger and cargo loading
conditions.
A hydraulic pump contained within
the shock absorbers raises the rear of
the vehicle to the correct height. It
takes approximately 1.6 km of driving
for the leveling to complete depending
on road surface conditions.If the leveled vehicle is not moved for
approximately 15 hours, the leveling
system will bleed itself down. The ve-
hicle must be driven to reset the
system.

driven, per the zone map. Once
properly set, the compass will auto-
matically compensate for the differ-
ences, and provide the most accurate
compass heading.
NOTE: Keep magnetic materials
away from the top of the instru-
ment panel, such as iPod's, Mobile
Phones, Laptops and Radar Detec-
tors. This is where the compass
module is located, and it can cause
interference with the compass sen-
sor, and it may give false readings.

 If your vehicle is damaged due to anaccident or similar cause, which de-
stroys the paint and protective
coating, have your vehicle repaired
as soon as possible. The cost of such
repairs is considered the responsi-
bility of the owner.
 If you carry special cargo such as chemicals, fertilizers, de-icer salt,
etc., be sure that such materials are
well packaged and sealed.
 If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads, consider mud or stone
shields behind each wheel.
 Use Touch Up Paint or equivalent on scratches as soon as possible.
Your authorized dealer has touch
up paint to match the color of your
vehicle.
Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially
aluminum and chrome-plated wheels
should be cleaned regularly with a
mild soap and water to prevent corro-
sion. To remove heavy soil and/or ex-
cessive brake dust, use a nonabrasive, non-acidic cleaner. Do not use scour-
ing pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or
metal polishes. Do not use oven
cleaner. Avoid automatic car washes
that use acidic solutions or harsh
brushes that may damage the wheels’
protective finish.
Stain Repel Fabric Cleaning
Procedure (for versions/markets,
where provided)
Stain Repel seats may be cleaned in
the following manner:
 Remove as much of the stain as
possible by blotting with a clean,
dry towel.
 Blot any remaining stain with a clean, damp towel.
 For tough stains, apply a mild soap solution to a clean, damp cloth and
remove the stain. Use a fresh, damp
towel to remove soap residue.
 Do not use any harsh solvents or any other form of protectants on
Stain Repel products. Interior Care
Interior trim should be cleaned start-
ing with a damp cloth. Do not use
harsh cleaners.
Your leather upholstery can be best
preserved by regular cleaning with a
damp soft cloth. Small particles of
dirt can act as an abrasive and dam-
age the leather upholstery and should
be removed promptly with a damp
cloth. Stubborn soils can be removed
easily with a soft cloth and appropri-
ate products. Care should be taken to
avoid soaking your leather upholstery
with any liquid. Please do not use
polishes, oils, cleaning fluids, sol-
vents, detergents, or ammonia-based
cleaners to clean your leather uphol-
stery. Application of a leather condi-
tioner is not required to maintain the
original condition.
WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for
cleaning purposes. Many are poten-
tially flammable, and if used in
closed areas they may cause respi-
ratory harm.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR DEALING
WITH THE VEHICLE AT THE
END OF ITS LIFE
LANCIA has been committed for
many years to safeguarding the envi-
ronment through the constant im-
provement of its production processes
and manufacturing products that are
increasingly “eco-compatible”.
To give customers the best possible
service in terms of respecting environ-
mental laws and in response to Euro-
pean Directive 2000/53/EC govern-
ing vehicles at the end of their life,
LANCIA is offering its customers the
opportunity of handing over their ve-
hicle* at the end of its life without
incurring any additional costs.The European Directive sets out that
when the vehicle is handed over the
last keeper or owner should not incur
any expenses as a result of it having a
zero or negative market value.
In all European Union countries, until
1st January 2007, only vehicles regis-
tered after 1st July 2002 were col-
lected free of charge, while since 2007
collection has been free of charge irre-
spective of the year of registration as
long as the vehicle contains its basic
components (in particular, the engine
and bodywork) and has no additional
waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end
of its life without extra cost, go to one
of our Dealerships or LANCIA-
authorized collection and scrapping
centres.These centres have been carefully
chosen to offer high quality service for
the collection, treatment and recy-
cling of unused vehicles with respect
to the environment.
You can find further information on
these collection and scrapping centres
either from a LANCIA or LANCIA
Commercial Vehicle Dealership or by
calling the freephone number 00800
