ignition Lancia Thema 2013 Owner handbook (in English)

the system has detected a faulted con-
dition, the EVIC will display the
“CLEAN PARK ASSIST”, “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST” or the “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message for
as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE
or DRIVE (at speeds less than
11 km/h). Under this condition
ParkSense® will not operate. Refer
to “Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST” appears
in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) make sure the outer
surface and the underside of the rear
fascia/bumper and/or front fascia/
bumper is clean and clear of snow, ice,
mud, dirt or other obstruction and
then cycle the ignition. If the message
continues to appear see an authorized
dealer.
If “SERVICE PARK ASSIST" or
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM”
appears in the EVIC, see an autho-
rized dealer.CLEANING THE
PARKSENSE® SYSTEM
Clean the ParkSense® sensors with
water, car wash soap and a soft cloth.
Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not
scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise,
you could damage the sensors.PARKSENSE® SYSTEM
USAGE PRECAUTIONS
NOTE:
 Ensure that the front and rear
bumper are free of snow, ice,
mud, dirt and debris to keep the
ParkSense® system operating
properly.
 Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could affect the
performance of ParkSense®.
When you turn ParkSense® off,
the EVIC will display “PARK AS-
SIST SYSTEM OFF.” Further-
more, once you turn ParkSense®
off, it remains off until you turn it
on again, even if you cycle the
ignition key.
 When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE or DRIVE posi-
tion and ParkSense® is turned
off, the EVIC will display “PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM OFF” message
for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE at or below 11 km/h.
Clean the ParkSense® sensors
regularly, taking care not to
scratch or damage them. The sen-
sors must not be covered with ice,
snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris.
Failure to do so can result in the
system not working properly. The
ParkSense® system might not de-
tect an obstacle behind or in front
of the fascia/bumper, or it could
provide a false indication that an
obstacle is behind or in front of
the fascia/bumper.Objects such as bicycle carriers,
trailer hitches, etc., must not be
placed within 30 cm from the
rear fascia/bumper while driving
the vehicle. Failure to do so can
result in the system misinterpret-
ing a close object as a sensor
problem, causing the “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST” message to be
displayed in the EVIC.

OUTLETS
There are three 12 Volt (13 Amp)
electrical power outlets on this ve-
hicle. The power outlets are protected
by a fuse.
Insert cigar lighter or accessory plug
into the power outlets for use to en-
sure proper operation.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the maximum
power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at
12 Volts. If the 160 Watt (13 Amp)
power rating is exceeded, the fuse
protecting the system will need to
be replaced. Power outlets are designed for ac-
cessory plugs only. Do not insert
any other object in the power out-
lets as this will damage the outlet
and blow the fuse. Improper use
of the power outlet can cause
damage not covered by your New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. The front 12 Volt power outlet has
power available only when the igni-
tion is placed in the ACC or RUN
position.
WARNING!
Do not place ashes inside the cubby
bin located on the center console on
vehicle's not equipped with the ash
receiver tray. A fire leading to
bodily injury could result.
Front Power Outlet
145

The center console outlet is powered
directly from the battery (power
available at all times). Items plugged
into this outlet may discharge the
battery and/or prevent the engine
from starting.
There is also a 12 volt power outlet
located on the back of the center con-
sole for rear passengers. This power
outlet has power available only when
the ignition is placed in the ACC or
RUN position.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
 Only devices designed for use inthis type of outlet should be in-
serted into any 12 Volt outlet.
 Do not touch with wet hands.
 Close the lid when not in use and while driving the vehicle.
 If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and fail-
ure.
CAUTION!
 Many accessories that can beplugged in draw power from the
vehicle's battery even when not in
use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.).
Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
 Accessories that draw higher
power (i.e., coolers, vacuum
cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade
the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.
 After the use of high power draw accessories or long periods of the
vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the
vehicle must be driven a suffi-
cient length of time to allow the
alternator to recharge the vehi-
cle's battery.

Certain conditions, such as poor fuel
quality, etc., may illuminate the MIL
after engine start. The vehicle should be
serviced if the light stays on through
several of your typical driving cycles. In
most situations, the vehicle will drive
normally and will not require towing.CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the MIL on
could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and drivability. If the
MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service
is required.WARNING!A malfunctioning catalytic con-
verter, as referenced above, can
reach higher temperatures than in
normal operating conditions. This
can cause a fire if you drive slowly or
park over flammable substances
such as dry plants, wood, cardboard,
etc. This could result in death or
serious injury to the driver, occu-
pants or others.
10. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
11. Fuel Door ReminderThe arrow in this symbol is
a reminder that the Fuel
Filler Door is located on the
left side of the vehicle.
12. Fuel Gauge
The pointer shows the level of fuel in
the fuel tank when the ignition switch
is in the ON/RUN position.
13. Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for
four to eight seconds as a
bulb check when the ignition
switch is first turned to ON/
RUN. If the light is either not on during
starting, stays on, or turns on while
driving, have the system inspected at
an authorized dealer as soon as pos-
sible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints”
in “Things To Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle” for further information.
14. Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various
brake functions, including
brake fluid level and park-
ing brake application. If the
brake light turns on it may indicate
that the parking brake is applied, that
the brake fluid level is low, or that
there is a problem with the anti-lock
brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the park-
ing brake has been disengaged, and
the fluid level is at the full mark on
the master cylinder reservoir, it indi-
cates a possible brake hydraulic sys-
tem malfunction or that a problem
with the Brake Booster has been de-
tected by the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS)/Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system. In this case, the light
will remain on until the condition has
been corrected. If the problem is re-
lated to the brake booster, the ABS
pump will run when applying the
brake and a brake pedal pulsation
may be felt during each stop.
160

The dual brake system provides a re-
serve braking capacity in the event of
a failure to a portion of the hydraulic
system. A leak in either half of the
dual brake system is indicated by the
Brake Warning Light, which will turn
on when the brake fluid level in the
master cylinder has dropped below a
specified level.
The light will remain on until the
cause is corrected.
NOTE:
The light may flash mo-
mentarily during sharp cornering
maneuvers, which change fluid
level conditions. The vehicle should
have service performed, and the
brake fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immedi-
ate repair is necessary.WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake
light on is dangerous. Part of the
brake system may have failed. It
will take longer to stop the vehicle.
You could have a collision. Have the
vehicle checked immediately. Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS), are also
equipped with Electronic Brake Force
Distribution (EBD). In the event of an
EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light
will turn on along with the ABS Light.
Immediate repair to the ABS system is
required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light
can be checked by turning the ignition
switch from the OFF position to the
ON/RUN position. The light should
illuminate for approximately two sec-
onds. The light should then turn off
unless the parking brake is applied or
a brake fault is detected. If the light
does not illuminate, have the light
inspected by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the
parking brake is applied with the igni-
tion switch in the ON/RUN position.NOTE: This light shows only
that the parking brake is applied.
It does not show the degree of
brake application.
15. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the
Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS). The light will turn
on when the ignition switch
is turned to the ON/RUN position and
may stay on for as long as four sec-
onds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on
while driving, it indicates that the
Anti-Lock portion of the brake sys-
tem is not functioning and that service
is required. However, the conven-
tional brake system will continue to
operate normally if the BRAKE warn-
ing light is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake sys-
tem should be serviced as soon as
possible to restore the benefits of
Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light
does not turn on when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON/RUN posi-
tion, have the light inspected by an
authorized dealer.

16. Vehicle Security LightThis light will flash at a fast
rate for approximately
15 seconds, when the ve-
hicle security alarm is arm-
ing, and then will flash slowly until
the vehicle is disarmed.
17. Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) OFF Indicator Light (for
versions/markets, where provided)
This light indicates the
Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) is off.
18. Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light (for versions/
markets, where provided) The “ESC Activation/Mal-
function Indicator Light” in
the instrument cluster will
come on when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON/RUN posi-
tion. It should go out with the engine
running. If the “ESC Activation/
Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine run-
ning, a malfunction has been detected
in the ESC system. If this light re-
mains on after several ignition cycles,
and the vehicle has been driven sev-
eral kilometers at speeds greater than
48 km/h, see your authorized dealer
as soon as possible to have the prob-
lem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:

The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and
the “ESC Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light” come on momen-
tarily each time the ignition
switch is turned to ON/RUN.Each time the ignition is turned to
ON/RUN, the ESC system will be
ON, even if it was turned off
previously.The ESC system will make buzz-
ing or clicking sounds when it is
active. This is normal; the sounds
will stop when ESC becomes in-
active following the maneuver
that caused the ESC activation.
19. Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is
first turned to ON/RUN, this
light will turn on for four to
eight seconds as a bulb check. During
the bulb check, if the driver's seat belt
is unbuckled, a chime will sound.
After the bulb check or when driving,
if the driver or passenger's (for
versions/markets, where provided)
seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will illuminate
and the chime will sound. Refer to
“Occupant Restraints” in “Things To
Know Before Starting Your Vehicle”
for further information.
20. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading
within the normal range indicates
that the engine cooling system is op-
erating satisfactorily.
The gauge pointer will likely indicate
a higher temperature when driving in
hot weather, up mountain grades, or
when towing a trailer. It should not be
allowed to exceed the upper limits of
the normal operating range.
