For an emergency engine start up
proceed as follows:
– Lay the CID device into the emer-
gency seat A(fig. 21)
– Push on the clutch pedal (manual
gearbox versions) or on the brake
pedal (automatic gearbox versions)
– To turn on the instrument panel,
turn knob A(fig. 22) to position
MAR.
To start engine, turn the knob A
(fig. 22) to positionAVV, and release
as soon as the engine is started.
When the car is running, the
engine gets going even if the CID
device has been removed from the
“garage” position. In any case, the
CID device will have to be put back
to the “garage” position for subse-
quent start-up.
IMPORTANTSet free from any
object compartment A(fig. 21),
before starting the emergency engine
start-up procedure.
IMPORTANTRemember to carry
about with you the CID device
before moving away from the car. KNOB FOR ACTUATING
INSTRUMENT PANEL
AND ENGINE START-UP
The car is fitted with a switch con-
trolled by knob A(fig. 22), enabling
to actuate STOP, MARand AVV
starter motor switch functions.
IMPORTANTKnob rotation is
enabled by the presence of the CID
device in the car and by the pressing
of the clutch pedal (or the brake pedal
for cars with automatic transmission).
STOP position
This position of the switch knob
corresponds to: engine off and steer-
ing column lock on. Certain electri-
cal devices (e.g. CONNECT) can be
operated.MAR position
This is the running position and
corresponds to: instrument panel on
and steering column lock off. All the
electrical devices can be operated.
AVV position
This is the position for engine
start-up: release the knob as soon as
the engine has started. The engine
can be started only when the CID
device is inside the car.
IMPORTANTSystem checks for
the presence of a CID device inside
the passenger compartment, when-
ever a door or the luggage compart-
ment are closed, while the instru-
ment panel is turned on or the
engine is running. If the CID device
is not identified, e.g. because the
CID owner leaves the car, the dis-
play on the instrument panel will
display the message: “ELECTRON-
IC KEY NO LONGER PRESENT IN
THE CAR – ENGINE CANNOT BE
RESTARTED”. The engine will
keep on running and instrument
panel will remain on, until the suc-

Before leaving the car in
a car-wash tunnel, disen-
gage the parking brake by
following the instructions
described in the relevant para-
graph, and leave the CID device
inside the passenger compart-
ment, to avoid automatic steering
column lock.IMPORTANTUser is not authorised
to move the car if the start-up knob is
not turned to the position MAR.
Should it be necessary to tow the car,
it is advised to turn the knob to the
MARposition before moving the car.
Steering column unlocking
The steering column is automati-
cally switched off, and the instru-
ment panel and electrical services
switched on, when the system
detects the simultaneous presence of
the following conditions:
cessive rotation of knob A(fig. 22)
to the STOPposition, and it will not
be possible to restart the car until a
valid CID device is identified inside
the passenger compartment.
IMPORTANTMake sure the CID
device is not positioned in places dif-
ficult to be accessed by the identifi-
cation system, such as the instru-
ment panel, the car floor or the shelf
below the rear window. Some elec-
tronic devices (e. g. mobile phones,
PDA, etc.) can moreover influence
the CID device identification. In the
case where, after a start-up opera-
tion, the message “ELECTRONIC
KEY NOT IDENTIFIED” should be
displayed, on the instrument panel,
make sure make sure whether the
CID is present into the passenger
compartment and it is located in
places tat can be reached by identi-
fication system.
IMPORTANTIf the CID device is
inside the luggage compartment, it is
possible that the engine could not be
started.Engine stop
To switch the engine off, turn the
knob from MARto STOP: the
engine will stop and the instrument
panel will display the message
“STEERING LOCKED WHEN
DOORS CLOSED”.
Steering column locking
The steering column lock is auto-
matically switched on by actuating
door closing by means of the remote
control, if the system has detected
the simultaneous presence of the fol-
lowing conditions:
– engine off (knob rotation to
STOPwith the car at a standstill)
– clutch pedal released (brake pedal
released on versions with automatic
transmission).
IMPORTANTThe steering column
lock is not switched on when the
door locks are actuated by means of
the emergency key in the CID
device, or automatically when the
CID device is taken away from the
car.

52
The other recognition system set-
tings that can be enabled/disabled
are:
– automatic locking of doors and
boot.
As regards the setting of the recog-
nition system customizations, refer
to the CONNECT supplement.
FAILURE INDICATION
The presence of anomalies in the
Keyless System is indicated by the
lighting of symbol Yon the instru-
ment display, together with the mes-
sage “VEHICLE PROTECTION
SYSTEM FAULT”.
IMPORTANT In case of fault, con-
tact your Lancia Dealership.
Before and during auto-
matic actuation of the
window regulators and
sunroof, always make sure that
the passengers and the persons
standing near the car are not
exposed to the risk of injures that
may be caused either by the mov-
ing windows and sunroof or by
objects dragged or hit by the
same. To actuate central opening of the
windows and sunroof, keep the
remote control button B(fig. 25)
depressed for more than 2 seconds
after opening the doors: both the win-
dow regulators and the sunroof will be
actuated until they are fully opened or
until the button is released.
This function can be used to aerate
the passenger’s compartment before
getting into the car parked in the sun.
IMPORTANT Do not lay the CID
device outside the car on the sunroof,
to avoid a fake identification of the
CID itself as if inside the car. It is rec-
ommend to carry about with you the
CID device (e.g. into a pocket). SYSTEM SETTINGS
The CONNECT enables to cus-
tomize certain functions of the
Keyless System recognition system,
through the settings that can be
selected on the CONNECT display.
The “central unlock” and “driver’s
door unlock” functions of the central
locking can be set also for the
Keyless System and operate as fol-
lows:
– central unlock: all the car doors
are unlocked simultaneously and
access is possible through every door
– driver’s door unlock: access is
possible through the driver’s door
whereas the other doors remain
locked, thus preventing un-autho-
rized persons from getting into the
car. In this case, the led on the dri-
ver’s door panel lights up (green
colour) whereas the leds on the other
doors remain off.
When “unlocking driver’s door” is
set, it is anyhow possible to unlock all
the doors, to enable access to passen-
gers, by pushing button B(fig. 18) on
CID device or, after opening the dri-
ver’s door, by pushing the central
unlock button existing on the door
panel.

73
Improper use of the elec-
trical window winders can
be dangerous. Before and
during their operation ensure
that any passengers in the car are
not at risk from the moving glass
either by personal objects getting
caught in the mechanism or by
being injured by it directly.
Always remove the ignition key
when you get out of the car to
prevent the electrical window
winders being operated acciden-
tally and constituting a danger to
the people left in the car. IMPORTANT In the event that the
anti-trap function is activated 5
times in only 1 minute, the system
will automatically enter the “recov-
ery” mode (self-protection). This
condition is pointed out by the fact
that, in the closing phase, the win-
dow goes up in jerks.
It is therefore necessary in this case
to carry out the system restore pro-
cedure by operating window open-
ing control or turning the ignition
key to STOPand then to MAR.
Regular operation is restored if no
malfunction is present: otherwise
contact a Lancia Dealership.
In the event that the system detects
a malfunction, the failure message
and symbol ª!will appear on the
instrument panel display (see
“Window anti-trap safety system” at
paragraph “Warning lights”).ELECTRIC
WINDOWS
ANTI-TRAP SAFETY SYSTEM
Front and rear electric windows are
provided with anti-trap safety
device. When the system control unit
detects an obstacle in the window
closing travel, it makes the window
travel stop and reverse immediately.
This system complies with regula-
tion 2000/4/EC coming soon in
force, which is destined to protect
passengers leaning out of the win-
dows. Therefore, in case of unlawful
intrusions from the outside, the anti-
trap safety device could not activate.

IMPORTANT If the ¬warning
light does not turn on when turning
the ignition key to MARor if it stays
on when travelling, (together with
message on display) this could indi-
cate a failure in safety retaining sys-
tems; under this condition air bags
or pretensioners could not trigger in
the event of collision or, in a restrict-
ed number of cases, they could trig-
ger accidentally. Stop the car and
contact Lancia Dealershipto have
the system checked immediately.
The air bag system has a validity of
14 years as concerns the pyrotechnic
charge and 10 years as concerns the
coil contact (see the plate on the front
let door). As these dates approach, con-
tact Lancia Dealershipto have them
replaced.
IMPORTANTAfter an accident
which triggered the airbags, go to a
Lancia Dealershipto have the
entire safety system, the electronic
control unit, the seat belts and the
pretensioners replaced and to have
the electrical system checked. Never lean head, arms
and elbows out of the
window.Operation of the front bags is not
disabled by the passenger’s front
airbag and rear side bag deactiva-
tion switch.
IMPORTANTIn the event of side
crash, you can obtain the best pro-
tection by the system keeping a cor-
rect position on the seat, allowing
thus a correct window bag unfold-
ing.IMPORTANTThe front airbags
and/or front and rear side bags can
be triggered if the car is involved in
hard impacts or collisions in the area
of the underbody, such as for exam-
ple violent impacts against steps,
kerbs or projecting objects fixed to
the ground or if the car falls into
large pot-holes or dips in the road
surface.
IMPORTANTWhen the airbag is
fired it emits a small amount of
powder and smoke. This is not
harmful and does not indicate the
beginning of a fire. Furthermore the
surface of the inflated bag and the
passenger compartment may be cov-
ered with powder residues. This
powder may irritate skin and eyes.
In the event of exposure, wash with
mild soap and water.
93
Never rest head, arms
and elbows on the door,
on the windows and in the
window bag area to prevent pos-
sible injuries during the inflation
phase.
