THE LANCIA
CODE SYSTEM
To further protect your car from at-
tempted theft, it has been fitted with
an electronic engine immobiliser sys-
tem called “Lancia CODE”, which is
currently considered the most effec-
tive way of protecting your car against
theft.This system is automatically
activated each time the engine is
switched off. Each ignition key, in
fact, contains an electronic device
which modulates a radio-frequency
signal emitted by a special aerial dur-
ing ignition. The modulated signal is
a “password” with which the control
unit recognises the key. Engine igni-
tion is enabled only if the key is recog-
nised by the system.THE KEYS
Three types of key (fig. 1) are sup-
plied with the car.
The car is always supplied with a
singleAkey and BorCkeys depend-
ing on the version:
– version without remote control,
twoBkeys;
– versions with door lock/unlock re-
mote control, one Bkey and one Ckey;
KeyA, with a burgundy grip, is the
“master” key. Only one of these keys
is provided, and it is used to store the
codes of new keys replacing ones that
have been lost or damaged, or when
storing duplicate key codes. Given its
importance, it should be kept in a safe
place (not in the car) and only be
used when absolutely necessary.
No repairs can be carried out on
the Lancia CODE system or the en-
gine control unit if this key is lost.KeyB, with a black grip, is the key
that is to be used normally. It will:
– start the engine
– unlock/lock the doors
– unlock/lock the boot
– unlock/lock the fuel tank cap.
– deactivate the passenger airbag.
KeyC, (which may be supplied as
an alternative to the Bkey), has the
same functions as key B, plus the re-
mote control function for the door
lock/unlock system.
The key is supplied together with the
CODE card (fig. 2) which bears:
D- the electronic code to be used for
emergency starting (see “In an emer-
gency”);

E- the mechanical key code to be
given to the LANCIA Dealership
when ordering duplicate keys;
F- the spaces for stickers bearing
the code of any remote controls pro-
vided.
The code numbers on the CODE
card and the key with the burgundy
grip must be kept in a safe place.
You should keep the electronic code
written on the CODE card with you
at all times in case it is necessary to
start the car using the emergency pro-
cedure.
OPERATION
Each time the ignition key is turned
toSTOPorPARK, the protection
system will immobilise the engine.When the key is turned to MARat
engine startup:
1)If the code is recognised, the
warning lamp ¢on the instrument
panel will flash briefly; this means
that the protection system has recog-
nised the key code and disabled the
engine immobiliser; turn the key to
AVVto start.
2)If the code is not recognised, the
warning lamp ¢and the warning
lamp will remain lit. Should this
happen, turn the key back
toSTOPand then to MAR; if the en-
gine remains immobilised, try using
the other keys supplied with the car.
If you are still unable to start the en-
gine, use the emergency starting pro-
cedure (see “In an emergency”), and
take your car immediately to the
nearestLANCIA Dealership.
When travelling with the ignition
key on MAR:
1)If the warning lamp ¢lights up
while the car is moving, it means that
the system is running a self-diagnosis
(e.g. due to a voltage drop). The first time you stop you can test
the system: turn the ignition key to
STOPto switch off the engine then to
MARagain. Warning lamp ¢will
switch on and should switch off again
after about 1 second.
If the warning light remains on, re-
peat the previous operations again
leaving the key at STOPfor more
than 30 seconds. If the fault persists,
contact a LANCIA Dealership.
2)If the warning lamp ¢flashes it
means that the car is not protected by
the immobiliser. Contact your LAN-
CIA Dealershipimmediately and get
them to store the codes of all the keys
in the memory.
IMPORTANTThe electronic com-
ponents inside the key may be dam-
aged if the key is subjected to sharp
knocks.
IMPORTANTEach key given with
the car has its own code, different
from all the others, which must be
stored in the memory of the system’s
control unit.

DUPLICATE KEYS
If you ask for extra keys, remember
that all the keys, both the new ones
and those you already possess, must
be stored in the memory (up to a
maximum of 7). Go directly to your
nearestLANCIA Dealership, taking
with you the burgundy “master” key,
all the keys in your possession and the
CODE card. The LANCIA Dealer-
shipmay ask you to demonstrate that
you own the car.
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 prevent any lost
keys being used to start the car.
The burgundy key, plus
all the other keys, and the
CODE card must be
handed over to the new owner
when selling the car.Ministerial homologation
With respect to the legislation in
force in each country on the use of ra-
dio frequencies:
– the market specific homologation
codes are given in the chapter “Ac-
cessory installation”;
– the homologation code is printed
on the ignition key-remote control for
the markets which require it.DOOR LOCK/UNLOCK
REMOTE CONTROL (fig. 3)
The remote control is built into the
ignition key. It consists of a button C
and a LED D. The button operates
the control and the LED flashes while
the transmitter is sending the code to
the receiver.
This a radio-frequency remote con-
trol and must be used close to the car.

IGNITION SWITCH
The key can turn through four posi-
tions(fig. 5):
–STOP:engine off, key can be re-
moved and the steering column is
locked. Some electrical devices can be
used (e.g. sound system, central door
lock, etc.).
–MAR:drive position. All electrical
devices can be used.
–AVV:to start the engine.–PARK:engine off, parking lights
lit, key can be removed, steering col-
umn locked. Press button Ato turn
the key to PARK.

P4C00324
If the ignition switch has
been tampered with (e.g.
someone has tried to steal
your car), get a LANCIA Dealer-
ship to make sure it is still func-
tioning properly before you start
driving again.
Always remove the key
when leaving the car so
that the controls cannot be
accidentally activated. Engage the
handbrake, and if the car is facing
uphill engage the first gear too.
With the car facing downhill en-
gage the reverse gear. Never leave
children alone in the car.

CHANGING THE BATTERIES
(fig. 4)
Change the remote control batteries
when the LED on the remote control
flashes once only when pressed.
Change the batterie with a similar
type as follows: open the plastic cov-
ers; insert the new batterie respecting
the polarity shown; close the plastic
covers.
Used batteries are an en-
vironmental hazard. Dis-
pose of them in appropri-
ate containers as prescribed by the
law. Alternatively, take the batter-
ies to a LANCIA Dealership who
will dispose of them correctly.

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.

IMPORTANT - Battery
You should check the battery charge
preferably at the beginning of the
winter to avoid the possibility of the
electrolyte freezing up.
This check should be performed
more frequently if the car is mainly
used for short trips, or if it is fitted
with accessories that absorb energy
even when the ignition key is re-
moved, especially if they are after-
market accessories.
You should check the battery fluid
(electrolyte) level more frequently
than shown in the Service Schedule
(see “Car maintenance”) if the car is
used in hot climates or particularly
demanding conditions. IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Change the engine oil more fre-
quently than indicated in the Service
Schedule, if the car is normally driven
in one of the following particularly se-
vere conditions:
– towing a trailer or caravan
– on dusty roads
– short, repetitive trips (less than 7
or 8 kilometres) in outside tempera-
tures below zero
– engines that are frequently left to
idle or drive slowly over long dis-
tances.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
Change the air cleaner more often
than indicated in the Service Sched-
ule if you use the car on dusty roads.
If you are in doubt about how often
the engine oil or the air cleaner should
be changed in relation to how you use
the car, contact a LANCIA Dealer-
ship.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the car is often used in dusty or
highly polluted areas, you should
change the pollen filtering element
more frequently, especially if you no-
tice that the amount of air entering
the passenger compartment is re-
duced.
IMPORTANT - Remote control
If the LED on the remote control
unit flashes only once when you press
the remote control button, you need
to replace the batteries.
