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.

CLOCK
Press control A (fig. 36)to adjust the
hour.
Press control Bto adjust the minutes.
Each time one of the control buttons
is pressed, the hours (A) or the min-
utes (B) will move forwards one unit. Even travelling too slowly when the
outside temperature is very hot can
cause the needle to approach the red
sector. In this case it is better to stop
and turn off the engine. After a few
moments you can start the engine
again and accelerate slightly.FUEL GAUGE (fig. 35)
If reserve warning light Bcomes on
it means there are between 5 and 8
litres of fuel left in the tank.
Do not drive when the tank is nearly
empty: possible changes in fuel deliv-
ery could damage the catalyser.
If the situation persists
even after the measures
you have taken, turn off
the engine and have the car seen to
at a LANCIA Dealership.

time, if this feature is included.

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.

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.
