REV COUNTER (fig. 39)
If the needle is in the red zone it
shows your car’s engine is over-
revving. This is only acceptable for a
few moments.
IMPORTANTThe electronic injec-
tion control system progressively
blocks the flow of fuel when the
pointer goes into the red zone leading
to a progressive loss of engine power.

LANCIA CODE
(amber)
In three ways (with ignition
key at MAR):
1.A single flash - indicates that the
key code has been recognised. The en-
gine can be started.
2.A constant light - indicates that the
key code has not been recognised. To
start the engine, follow the emergency
startup procedure described in the “In
an emergency” section.
3.A flashing light - indicates that the
car is not protected by the immo-
biliser system. The engine can be
started however.
¢
ABS (ANTI-LOCKING
SYSTEM) FAILURE
(amber)
When the ABS system is inefficient.
The normal braking system continues
to work but you should have the car
seen to at a LANCIA Dealershipas
soon as you can.
The warning lamp will light up when
you turn the key to MAR, but it
should go out as soon as the engine
starts.
>
The car is fitted with an
electronic brake distribu-
tor (EBD). If warning lights
>andxlight up simultaneously
when the engine is running, this
indicates an EBD fault. This
means that violent braking could
cause early locking of the rear
wheels causing the car to skid.
Drive very carefully to the nearest
LANCIA Dealership to have the
system checked.EOBD SELF-
DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
(amber)
In normal conditions, the warning
light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to MARand should go
out as soon as the engine is started.
The initial lighting up shows that the
warning light is working properly.
If the warning light either stays on or
comes on while travelling:
1.Fixed light - warning of a fuel
feed/ignition system failure which
If only warning light>
switches on when the en-
gine is running, this usu-
ally indicates an ABS fault. In such
cases the braking system is still ef-
ficient, although the anti-locking
device does not function. The EBD
system may also be less efficient.
Go to a LANCIA Dealership imme-
diately, taking care not to brake
suddenly, and have the system
checked.HAZARD LIGHTS
(red) (flashing)
When the hazard lights are
switched on.

system on and off.
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
This is a safety cut-out which comes
into play in the case of an accident
and blocks the fuel supply, thereby
stopping the engine.
After an accident, turn the igni-
tion key to STOP to prevent the
battery running down. CONTROL BUTTONS (fig. 55)
These are situated between the cen-
tre air vents.
They only function when the igni-
tion key is at MAR.
All buttons light up when pressed in. The use of hazard lights
is subject to the highway
code. Keep to the prescrip-
tions in force in the country you
are driving in.

on/off. These lights can only be
switched on if the outside lights are
already on.
B- To switch the rear foglights on/
off. These lights can only be switched
on if the dipped headlights and/or the
front foglights are already on.
The rear foglights will automatically
be turned off when the engine is
switched off or when switching from
dipped beam headlights and/or front
foglights to side lights.
When the engine is restarted or
the dipped headlights are switched
back on in the presence of fog, the
rear foglight button must be
pressed to switch the rear foglights
on again.
IMPORTANTThe rear fog light
may annoy the drivers following you
when visibility is good. Consequently,
use the light only when required.

Incorrect use of the elec-
tric windows could be
dangerous. Before and
when pressing the switches, always
make sure that passengers are not
liable to injury either directly by
the movement of the windows or
by personal effects being dragged
along or knocked by the windows.
Always remove the ignition key
when getting out of the car to make
sure that the electric windows can-
not be accidentally operated and
constitute a hazard for passengers
remaining in the car.
The door handle on the passenger
side has a button to control that par-
ticular window. IMPORTANTFor versions with
door locking/unlocking remote con-
trol, see the “Lancia CODE system -
Door lock/unlock remote control”
paragraph at the beginning of this
chapter.
IMPORTANTIf one of the doors is
not shut properly or there is a failure
in the system, the central locking fea-
ture will not work and, after some at-
tempts, the device stops working for
around two minutes. In these two min-
utes the doors can be locked or un-
locked manually without the electrical
system coming into play. After the two
minutes, the control unit is ready to
receive commands once more.
If the reason for the malfunction has
been removed, the device will start to
work properly again. If not, it will cut
out once more.ELECTRIC WINDOWS
The electric windows are controlled
by two buttons situated in the inside
handle of the driver’s door (fig. 71).
They work when the ignition key is at
MAR:
A- left window;
B- right window.
Press the switch to open the window,
and pull it up to close it: this means
the window cannot be closed acci-
dentally.
On the LX and 1.2
16VM M Nredver-
sions, if the driver’s window switch is
pressed for about one second, the win-
dow will work automatically: it will
stop when it is fully opened or closed
or when the switch is pressed again.

Do not work boot release
lever when the car is in
motion.
The addition of objects to
the rear parcel shelf or
tailgate (loudspeakers,
spoiler, etc.) may prevent the gas-
filled struts at the sides of the tail-
gate working properly. Items
arranged on the rear window shelf
could be thrown forwards and in-
jure passengers should you brake
sharply.
fig. 74
P4C00037
When using the boot,
make sure the load you are
carrying does not exceed
the permitted weight (see the
“Technical specifications” sec-
tion). Also ensure the items in the
boot are arranged properly to pre-
vent them being thrown forward
and injurying passengers should
you brake sharply.

4)Fold the seat back forwards to
make a flat loading surface with the
boot floor (fig. 78).
If necessary, the cushion can also be
tilted(fig. 79). Consequently, before
releasing the seat back, lift the cush-
ion as shown and tip it against the
front seat backs; the rear seat back-
rest can then be released and tilted
forwards.
To return the seat to its normal po-
sition:
1)Return the seat back to the verti-
cal position and make sure it is prop-
erly locked into place; the red strip on
the hook-up button must disappear.

Removing the parcel shelf
If you wish to remove the parcel
shelf to extend the boot capacity, un-
hook the two tie-rods (one each side)
A (fig. 75)from the hooks B, then
pull the parcel shelf outwards so that
pinsCcome out.
The shelf can then be positioned be-
hind the front seats.INCREASING THE LOAD AREA
Proceed as follows:
1)Make sure that the side seat belts
A (fig. 76)have been inserted into the
corresponding bracket B.
2)Remove the rear head restraints
if required.
3)Release the seat back by pressing
buttonA (fig. 77)(one for each side)
located on the back seat back-rest
(even when a split back seat is fitted);
a red strip will appear on the short
side of the button (towards the inside
of the car) to indicate that it has been
released.

ABS
The car is fitted with an ABS brak-
ing system that prevents the wheels
locking when braking, it exploits the
grip on the road surface holding the
car in the case of sudden braking.
The driver becomes aware of the
ABS activation through a slight throb-
bing of the brake pedal and the rele-
vant noise it makes.
This does not indicate brake mal-
functioning, it is an indication to the
driver that the ABS is operating. It is
a warning that the car is travelling at
borderline road grip and therefore the
speed should be adjusted to the type
of road surface.
The ABS is an addition to the basic
braking system; in the case of a fail-
ure it disables, leaving the braking
system in the same conditions as a ve-
hicle without ABS installed. COMPENSATION
FOR THE UPWARD SLANT
OF THE HEADLIGHT BEAMS
When the car is loaded, it “slopes”
backwards. This means that the head-
light beam rises. In this case it is nec-
essary to return it to the correct posi-
tion.
The car is fitted with an electric ad-
juster(fig. 84)situated at the side of
the handbrake:
Position0- one or two people on the
front seats.
Position1- five people.
Position2- five people + load in
luggage compartment.
Position3- driver + maximum per-
missible load all in the boot.
fig. 84
P4C00105
Check the positioning of
the headlight beams every
time you change the load
to be carried.
IMPORTANTIn order that the ad-
juster operates properly, the load in
the boot must not exceed the maxi-
mum values indicated.
ADJUSTING THE BEAM
OF THE FRONT FOGLIGHTS
Ask a LANCIA Dealershipto check
and, if necessary, adjust the beam for
you.
