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 COLUMN LOCK
The steering column lock is
engaged automatically after remov-
ing the ignition key.IGNITION
SWITCH
The key can be turned to three dif-
ferent positions (fig. 6):
STOP: engine off, key can be
removed, steering column locked.
Some electrical devices can be oper-
ated (e.g. CONNECT).
MAR: driving position correspond-
ing to: dashboard on and steering
column lock off. All the electrical
devices can be operated.
AVV: engine ignition. Release the
key as soon as the engine is started.If the ignition switch has
been tampered with (e.g.
someone has tried to steal
your car), get a Lancia
Dealership to make sure it is still
functioning properly before you
start driving again.
Always remove the igni-
tion key when you get out
of the car. This will pre-
vent anyone from accidentally
working the controls. Remember
to apply the handbrake and, if
the car is faced down on a steep
slope engage the first gear. If it is
facing up, engage the reverse
gear.
IMPORTANTFor versions equip-
ped with the recognition system,
refer to paragraph “Recognition sys-
tem (Keyless System)” in this chap-
ter.

Versions with Keyless System
The steering column lock is
engaged when central door locking
is actuated by means of the remote
control. This condition is indicated
on the instrument panel display by
message “STEERING LOCKED
WHEN DOORS CLOSED”.

27
The codes of any keys
that are not available
when the new storage pro-
cedure is carried out will be
deleted from the memory to pre-
vent any lost or stolen keys being
used to start the engine.IMPORTANTIf symbol Ylights
up when the car is running:
1) If the symbol lights up together
with the message “VEHICLE PRO-
TECTION SYSTEM FAULT”, this
means that the system is running a
self-test (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
The first time you stop, you can test
the system as follows: switch the en-
gine off by turning the ignition key to
STOPthen turn the key back to
MAR: the symbol will light up and go
out in about 1 second. If the symbol
remains on, repeat the above proce-
dure, leaving the key at STOPfor
longer than 30 seconds. If the prob-
lem persists, contact your Lancia
Dealership.
2) If the symbol stays on, this
means that the code has not been
recognised. In this case, turn the key
toSTOPand then back to MAR. If
the engine remains immobilised, try
with the other keys provided with
the car. If you are still unable to
start the engine, carry out the emer-
gency procedure (see chapter “In an
emergency”), and contact your
Lancia Dealership.THE KEY
The car is delivered with two
copies of the key A(fig. 7) with
metal insert and power-assisted
opening with built-in remote control
for remote door opening/closing,
boot/tailgate opening and switching
the electronic alarm on/off.

The code numbers written on the
CODE card must be kept in a safe
place (not in the car).
You should always have the elec-
tronic code number written on the
CODE card with you at all times in
case you need to perform an emer-
gency start-up.
All the keys and the
CODE card must be
handed over to the new
owner when selling the car.The key (fig. 9) has:
– metal insert Athat can be
enclosed in the key grip;
– button Bto open the metal insert;
– button Cfor remote door unlock-
ing and electronic alarm deactiva-
tion at the same time;
– button Dfor remote door and
boot locking and electronic alarm
activation at the same time;
– button Efor remote bonnet open-
ing;– led F(where required) indicating
code sending to the electronic alarm
system receiver.
Prolonged pressure (more than 2
seconds) of button Cwill actuate the
opening of all the door windows and
the sunroof, to aerate the passenger
compartment: opening is interrupt-
ed when the button is released.
Similarly, door windows and sun-
roof can be closed when closing the
doors by pressing down (for more
than 2 seconds) the remote locking
buttonDuntil they are completely

RECOGNITION
SYSTEM(KEYLESS
SYSTEM)
(where provided)
The Keyless System is a recognition
system controlled by device A
(fig. 17), called CID (Customer
Identification Device), which per-
forms the same functions as the key
provided with the remote control
supplied with the car. It does not
require any manual action since it
identifies the person that holds the
device as the owner of the car.
Therefore, it is enough for the dri-
ver to bring the CID device withhimself so that the car can recognize
him, allowing him to get into the car
and start the engine without having
to use the key.
In any case, the CID device is
equipped with three buttons per-
forming the same functions as the
ordinary radio-frequency remote
control that enable the driver to
remotely operate on the car.
Moreover, it includes the key for the
mechanical emergency actuation of
the boot and door locks (in case the
CID device battery or the car battery
are run down).
The buttons perform the following
functions (fig. 18):
– button Bfor remote actuation of
central door opening and the simul-taneous switching off of the elec-
tronic alarm
– button Cfor remote actuation of
central door locking, boot locking
and the simultaneous switching on
of the electronic alarm
– button Dfor remote tailgate
opening
– led E(where required) to indi-
cate code sending to the electronic
alarm system receiver.
To remove emergency keyF
(fig. 19), take off cover G(fig. 20)
by levering at point H.

48
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 MARtoSTOP: 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.

51
The alarm system, the
steering lock and the
deadlock device are not
actuated by the automatic lock-
ing function.
IMPORTANTPurpose of Autoclose
function is to lock doors, luggage
compartment and fuel filler flap when
owner possessing the CID device,
moves away from the car. In this case
(Autoclose function on), push on but-
tonB(fig. 18) on CID to unlock fuel
filler flap in order to refuel. – If there is a fault in the identifi-
cation system (Keyless System).
– If the CID device battery is flat.
– If the last engine start-up was
performed with the CID device in
the emergency position.
IMPORTANT
– If, after locking the locks, a door
is opened from inside the car, all the
locks will be unlocked.
– If central door opening has been
activated by pressing the CID but-
ton, the Autoclose function (auto-
matic locking) will not be activated.
To activate central locking, press the
relevant button on the CID device.
– When the Autoclose function on,
before leaving the car, make sure
you always have with yourself the
CID device.The Autoclose function can be
influenced by the presence of elec-
tromagnetic noises; in these cases
lock the doors with the remote con-
trol or use the door locks.
CENTRAL LOCKING/OPENING
OF WINDOWS AND SUNROOF
When central door locking is
switched on/off, also the central
locking/opening of the windows and
the sunroof can be controlled, pro-
vided that all the doors are properly
closed.
To actuate central locking of the
windows and the sunroof, keep the
remote control button A(fig. 25)
depressed for more than 2 seconds
after closing the doors: both the win-
dow regulators and the sunroof will
be actuated until they are fully
closed or until the button is released.
