length Lancia Voyager 2012 Owner handbook (in English)

Gas props support the liftgate in the
open position. However, because the
gas pressure drops with temperature,
it may be necessary to assist the props
when opening the liftgate in cold
weather.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Some of the most important safety
features in your vehicle are the re-
straint systems:
 Three-point lap and shoulder beltsfor all seating positions
 Advanced Front Air Bags for driver and front passenger
 Supplemental Active Head Re- straints (AHR) located on top of the
front seats (integrated into the head
restraint)
 Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat- able Curtains (SABIC) that span
the front, second, and third row
seating for the driver and passen-
gers seated next to a window
 Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB)
 An energy-absorbing steering col- umn and steering wheel  Knee bolsters/blockers for front
seat occupants (for versions/
markets, where provided)
 Front seat belts incorporate preten- sioners that may enhance occupant
protection by managing occupant
energy during an impact event
 All seat belt systems (except the driver’s) include Automatic Lock-
ing Retractors (ALRs), which lock
the seat belt webbing into position
by extending the belt all the way
out and then adjusting the belt to
the desired length to restrain a child
seat or secure a large item in a seat
If you will be carrying children too
small for adult-sized seat belts, the
seat belts or the ISOFIX feature also
can be used to hold infant and child
restraint systems. For more informa-
tion on ISOFIX, see ISOFIX — Child
Seat Anchorage System.
NOTE:
The Advanced Front Air Bags have
a multistage inflator design. This
allows the air bag to have different
rates of inflation based on several
factors, including the severity and
type of collision. Please pay close attention to the infor-
mation in this section. It tells you how
to use your restraint system properly,
to keep you and your passengers as
safe as possible.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passen-
gers can suffer much greater injuries
if you are not properly buckled up.
You can strike the interior of your
vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle.
Always be sure you and others in
your vehicle are buckled up prop-
erly.
Buckle up even though you are an
excellent driver, even on short trips.
Someone on the road may be a poor
driver and cause a collision that in-
cludes you. This can happen far away
from home or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts
save lives, and they can reduce the
seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen
when people are thrown from the ve-
hicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility
of ejection and the risk of injury

TILT/TELESCOPING
STEERING COLUMN
This feature allows you to tilt the
steering column upward or down-
ward. It also allows you to lengthen or
shorten the steering column. The tilt/
telescoping lever is located below the
steering wheel at the end of the steer-
ing column.
To unlock the steering column, push
the lever downward (toward the
floor). To tilt the steering column,
move the steering wheel upward or
downward as desired. To lengthen or
shorten the steering column, pull the
steering wheel outward or push it in-
ward as desired. To lock the steering
column in position, push the lever up-
ward until fully engaged.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering column
while driving. Adjusting the steering
column while driving or driving with
the steering column unlocked, could
cause the driver to lose control of the
vehicle. Be sure the steering column
is locked before driving your vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury or death.
ADJUSTABLE PEDALS
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The adjustable pedals system is de-
signed to allow a greater range of
driver comfort for steering wheel tilt
and seat position. This feature allows
the brake, accelerator, and clutch
pedals (for versions/markets, where
provided) to move toward or away
from the driver to provide improved
position with the steering wheel.
The switch is located on the left side of
the steering column. Press the switch forward to move the
pedals forward (toward the front of
the vehicle).
Press the switch rearward to move the
pedals rearward (toward the driver).
 The pedals can be adjusted with the
ignition OFF.
 The pedals cannotbe adjusted
when the vehicle is in REVERSE or
when the Electronic Speed Control
System is on. The following mes-
sages will be displayed on vehicles
equipped with the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information System (EVIC) if
the pedals are attempted to be ad-
justed when the system is locked
out (“Adjustable Pedal Disabled —
Cruise Control Engaged” or “Ad-
justable Pedal Disabled — Vehicle
In Reverse”.

CAUTION!(Continued)
 After the use of high power draw
accessories, or long periods of the
vehicle not being started (with ac-
cessories still plugged in), the ve-
hicle must be driven a sufficient
length of time to allow the alter-
nator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
 Power outlets are designed for ac-
cessory plugs only. Do not hang
any type of accessory or accessory
bracket from the plug. Improper
use of the power outlet can cause
damage.
SMOKERS PACKAGE KIT
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
With the optional authorized dealer-
installed Smokers Package Kit, a re-
movable ash receiver is inserted into
one of the two cupholders in the cen-
ter front instrument panel. To install
the ash receiver, align the receiver so
the thumb grip on the lid is facing
rearward. Press the ash receiver into
either of the cup wells to secure. Pull upward on the ash receiver to remove
for cleaning and/or storage.
The left rear trim panel cupholder is
designed to accommodate a second
ash receiver, if desired.
POWER INVERTER (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
A 110 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
(for versions/markets, where pro-
vided) converts DC current to AC cur-
rent, and is located on the left rear
trim panel immediately behind the
second row left passenger seat.
The power inverter switch is located
on the instrument panel below the
climate controls.
To turn on the power outlet, press the
switch once. Press the switch a second
time to turn the power outlet off.
This outlet can power cellular phones,
electronics and other low power de-
vices requiring power up to 150
Watts. Certain high-end video games,
such as Playstation3 and XBox360
will exceed this power limit, as will
most power tools.
The power inverter is designed with
built-in overload protection. If the
power rating of 150 Watts is ex-
ceeded, the power inverter will auto-
matically shut down. Once the electri-
cal device has been removed from the
outlet the inverter should automati-
cally reset. If the power rating exceeds
approximately 170 Watts, the power
inverter may have to be reset manu-
ally. To reset the inverter manually
press the power inverter button OFF
and ON. To avoid overloading the cir-
cuit, check the power ratings on elec-
trical devices prior to using the in-
verter.
