Recalling the “parking” position
of the external rear view mirror
on passenger side
To automatically recall the “park-
ing” position of the external passen-
ger rear view mirror, proceed as fol-
lows:
– with the car stopped and the igni-
tion key at MAR, engage the reverse
gear; the mirror will be automatical-
ly brought back to the previously
stored position .
If no “parking” position has been
stored, when engaging reverse the
passenger mirror slightly lowers
than normally to a preset position to
facilitate the driver during parking.
The rear view mirror will automat-
ically return to its initial position
after about 10 seconds from reverse
gear disengagement, or immediately
after exceeding a speed of 10 km/h
with forward gear. IMPORTANTThe “parking” posi-
tion memorisation and recall can
only be performed with ignition key
atMAR.
Automatic realignment
of external rear view mirrors
Every time the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the external rear
view mirrors automatically return to
the latest position reached and/or
recalled before removing the key.
This enables rear view mirror
alignment if, when the car is parked,
one of the rear view mirror has been
manually and/or accidentally
moved.COMFORT SEATS (fig. 47)
ButtonAon front Comfort Seats
enables to actuate the respective con-
trols separately. When pressing the
button of each of the two seats, the
respective CONNECT menu is actu-
ated; this menu makes it possible,
through its various options, to define
the heating levels and actuate venti-
lation, massage and the adaptive
function for each of the two seats.
The Comfort controls can also be
actuated by pressing the “Setup” key
of the CONNECT and then selecting
the “Seat Comfort” function.
To actuate these settings, refer to
the CONNECT supplement provid-
ed with the car.
IMPORTANTNever turn the pas-
senger massage function on when
the seat is not occupied since the
occupant sensor could activate (in
the event of an accident) the rele-
vant air bag.

REAR SEATS
HEAD RESTRAINTS
The 3 rear head restraints (fig. 50-
51) can be adjusted for height. To
adjust, move the head restraint
upwards or downwards according to
the most suitable position.
Rear head restraints cannot be
removed.Remember that the head
restraints should be
adjusted to support the
back of your head and not your
neck. Only if they are in this posi-
tion will they be able to provide
effective protection in the event of
a rear-end shunt.Certain versions (where provided)
have a button A(fig. 52) on the cen-
tral console for lowering, with igni-
tion key at MAR, the rear side head
restraints.

It is absolutely forbidden
to carry out whatever af-
ter-market operation in-
volving steering system or steering
column modifications (e.g.: instal-
lation of anti-theft Device) that
could badly affect performance
and safety, cause the lapse of war-
ranty and also result in non-com-
pliance of the car with homologa-
tion requirements.

STEERING WHEELSteering wheel position is stored
together with external rearview mir-
ror position, when storing the dri-
ver’s seat position.
MANUAL ADJUSTMENT (fig. 59)
The steering wheel height and axial
position can be adjusted:
On certain versions the steering
wheel height and axial position can be
adjusted; proceed as follows:
1) Push lever Bto1.
2) Move the steering wheel to the re-
quired position by pulling, pushing,
lifting or lowering it.
3) Pull leverBto2to lock the steer-
ing wheel in place. Only make adjustments
when the car is station-
ary.
ELECTRIC ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 58)
The steering wheel height and axial
position can be adjusted electroni-
cally when the ignition key is at
MAR.
To make adjustments, move lever
Ain four directions.

MIRRORS
INTERNAL REARVIEW MIRROR
Manually adjustable (fig. 60)
The mirror can be adjusted in four
directions by means of lever A:
1) normal position

The mirrors are automatically
demisted/defrosted when the heated
rear window is operated.
IMPORTANTRearview mirror
surface is flat to make objects seem
at their actual distance.If the mirrors make it
difficult to get through
narrow gaps and in auto-
matic car washes, fold them from
position 1 to position 2 (fig. 64).Automatic rearview mirror
realignment
Rearview mirror position is stored,
together with the steering wheel
position, when storing the driver’s
seat position. Each time the ignition
key is turned to MAR, rearview mir-
rors return automatically to the last
position reached and/or recalled at
the previous ignition key removal.
This enables rearview mirror align-
ment if, when the car is parked, one
of the rearview mirror has been
manually and/or accidentally
moved.
Storing the “parking” position of
the right-hand rearview mirror
When storing the driver’s seat posi-
tions, it is possible to store also the
“parking” position of the right-hand
rearview mirror. Stored position is
recalled automatically when engag-
ing the reverse gear. For further
information about rearview mirror
“parking” position storing and
recalling, see paragraph “Front
seats” in this chapter.

Press switch A(fig. 62) to adjust
the mirror in the four directions
(fig. 63). After adjusting, turn switch
Aback to position 0to prevent mov-
ing the mirrors accidentally.
The mirrors can be folded electri-
cally to reduce side clearance. Turn
switchA(fig. 62) to position 3to
fold the mirrors electrically. Turn
the switch Ato position 0to return
the mirrors to their normal position.

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. IMPORTANTIn 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.

74
CONTROLS
Electric windows work with igni-
tion key at MAR.
IMPORTANTWith ignition key at
STOPor after removing it, the elec-
tric windows can be still operated for
about 2 minutes. They will deacti-
vate immediately when opening one
of the doors.
