Even in fault conditions it is possi-
ble to move the lever to R, Nand D.
If the lever is in position D,the con-
trol unit of the automatic gearbox
will select only certain gears, accord-
ing to the type of failure detected.
In case of failure of the
automatic gearbox, take
the car immediately to a
Lancia Dealership to have the
failure eliminated.FAILURE INDICATION
Automatic gearbox faults are indi-
cated by multifunction display
warning light tcoming on with
the following messages:
– AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
OIL TEMP. HIGH
– AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FAULT.
Automatic transmission oil tem-
perature high
This message is displayed when the
gearbox oil has reached the maxi-
mum preset temperature. In this
case the electronic control unit has
an emergency programme.
Anyway, it is suggested to stop the
car, to set the lever to Por Nand to
keep the engine running idle until
the message displayed disappears.
Then start driving again without
taxing the engine.If the message is displayed again,
re-stop the car and let the engine
run idle until the message disap-
pears.
If the interval between the first and
second message appearance is lower
than 15 minutes, stop the car, stop
the engine and wait until the engine-
gearbox unit is completely cold.
Automatic transmission fault
If this message is displayed during
driving, it means that there is a fail-
ure in the automatic gearbox. In this
case the electronic control unit has
an emergency programme.
In such conditions, stop the car and
stop the engine for at least 1 minute.
When the engine is restarted, the
self-diagnosis system could exclude
that failure, that however will be
stored by the electronic control unit.

Turn ring Bto position (+) to set
the speed reached or to increase the
stored speed.
Turn ring Bto position (–) to
decrease the stored speed.
The speed will be increased or
decreased by approximately 1 km/h
each time ring Bis operated. Hold
the ring turned to set the speed con-
tinuously. The new set speed will be
automatically kept.
Button C(RCL) allows to reset the
stored speed.
IMPORTANTTurn the ignition
key to STOPor switch Ato OFFto
delete the stored speed and switch
the system off.Storing the speed
Move switch Ato ONand take the
car to the required speed normally.
Turn ring Bto (+) for at least three
seconds and release it. The car speed
will be stored and you can now
release your foot from the accelera-
tor.
The car will continue at the con-
stant speed until one of the following
events occur:
– the brake pedal is pressed
– the clutch pedal is pressed
– the automatic gear lever is unin-
tentionally shifted to N.
IMPORTANTIf required (e.g. for
overtaking) you can accelerate sim-
ply by pressing the accelerator. The
car will return to the previously set
speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.Resetting the stored speed
To reset the stored speed after
switching the device off, e.g. by
pressing the brake or the clutch ped-
als:
– accelerate progressively to reach
a speed which is close to the previ-
ously set speed
– engage the gear which was
engaged when the speed was set (4
th,
5thor 6th gear)
– press button C (RCL).
Increasing the stored speed
The stored speed can be increased
in two ways:
– by pressing the accelerator pedal
and storing the new speed (turning
ring Bfor longer than three seconds)

199
Ring Ahas four positions:
OFF: system off
x: greatest distance from the vehi-
cle ahead
x: intermediate distance from the
vehicle ahead
x: shortest distance from the vehi-
cle ahead.
The distance between the two vehi-
cles is gradually increased as the
speed is increased, set levels being
equal.
IMPORTANTTurn the ignition
key to STOPor ring Ato OFF, to
delete the stored speed and switch
the system off. To restore system
operation, turn the ring Ato OFF
and repeat the setting operations.When the system is on, that is, ring
Ais in any position other than OFF,
symbol úlights up on the multi-
function display, together with mes-
sage “RADAR CRUISE CONTROL
ON”. The warning light will remain
on until the system is switched off by
turning ring Ato OFF.
Ring Bis used to store the car
speed and keep it constant, or to
increase or decrease the stored
speed.
Turn ring Bto (+) to store the
speed reached or increase the stored
speed.
Turn ring Bto (–) to decrease the
stored speed. Slowing down can also
be obtained, when required, by
braking system automatic operation.
Every time ring Bis turned, the
speed is increased or decreased by
about 1 km/h. By keeping the ring
rotated, the stored speed will change
continuously at intervals of 10
km/h. The new speed reached will
be maintained automatically.
When ring Bis turned, the car’s
actual speed is considered as refer-
ence speed (cruise speed). This
speed can automatically decrease
depending on traffic conditions, and
the system can shift from the speed
control condition to the distance
control condition. The driver is
informed of the system’s operating
condition by the instrument panel
display.
Button C(RCL) allows to reset the
stored speed. In fact, when driving
the car with the system on, the dri-
ver can switch the system off by sim-
ply braking. In this case, the cruise
speed previously set is kept in the
memory and can be enabled again at
any time by pressing button RCL.

200
Storing the speed
Move ring Ato any position other
than OFFand take the car to the
required speed.
Turn ring Bto (+), then release it.
The car speed will be stored and
shown on the instrument panel dis-
play; now, the accelerator pedal can
be released.
The car will continue at the con-
stant speed until one of the following
events occur:
– the brake pedal is pressed
– presence of a vehicle running
ahead more slowly along the run-
ning path, in the same running
direction.
IMPORTANTIf required (e.g. for
overtaking) you can accelerate sim-
ply by pressing the accelerator. The
car will return to the previously set
speed when the accelerator pedal is
released. If 160 km/h speed is
exceeded, restore the stored speed by
pressing C(RCL).Resetting the stored speed
If the system has been switched off
by pressing the brake pedal, the
stored speed can be resumed by
pressing button C(RCL).
Increasing the stored speed
The stored speed can be increased
in two ways:
– by pressing the accelerator and
storing the new speed (turning ring
Bto (+)
or
– by temporarily turning ring Bto
(+): each turn of the ring will corre-
spond to a 10 km/h speed increase,
while a continuous pressure will cor-
respond to a continuous speed
increase at intervals of 10 km/h.
Release ring B: the new speed will
automatically be stored.
The new set speed will be shown on
the display in place of the previous
one. Reducing the stored speed
The stored speed can be decreased
in two ways:
– by switching the device off (e.g.
by pressing the brake pedal) and
then storing the new speed (turning
ring Bto (+)
or
– by turning ring Bto (-) until the
new speed is reached. The new speed
will automatically be stored.
The new set speed will be shown on
the display in place of the previous
one.

Automatic dynamic beam adjust-
ment device
Bi-Xeno headlights require, due to
produced brilliancy, an automatic,
dynamic beam adjustment system.
This system is managed by an elec-
tronic control unit that controls the
actuators mounted on each dipped
beam headlight. Actuator control
depends on the processing of the sig-
nals from two orientation sensors.
This automatic dynamic beam
adjustment system provides the fol-
lowing advantages:
– it avoids dazzling the vehicles
coming from the opposite direction
– it stabilizes the illuminated area
so as to improve active safety.Headlight beam adjustment con-
trol unit
The control unit calculates the
instant car trim, by comparing the
signals from the orientation sensors.
A “correction” signal is sent to the
actuators to adapt light beam orien-
tation to the calculated car trim.
To avoid oscillation of the anti-
dazzling beam in case of particular
road surfaces (paved surfaces, dirt
roads, etc.) or abrupt movements of
the car caused by the driver (clutch
disengagement, gear change, etc.),
the control unit reduces the number
of corrections to be made on the
light unit.Fault indication
Anomalies in the operation of one
or several system components are
signalled by the lighting of symbol
6on the multifunction display,
together with message “HEAD-
LAMP INCLINATION ADJUST-
MENT SYSTEM FAULT”.
IMPORTANT In case of faults,
contact a Lancia Dealership.
In case of component anomaly or
voltage drop, the system controls in
any case system operation according
to the following logic:
– faulty front sensor: trim calcula-
tion is made by replacing the voltage
value read on the faulty sensor with
a stored, fixed value
– faulty rear sensor: the system is
switched to the safety operation
mode and keeps the headlights in a
preset position of maximum lower-
ing allowed by the light beam.
