unlock it with the ignition key A

To open it from inside the car, pull
leverA (fig. 73)at the side of the dri-
ver’s seat.
To lift the tailgate, use the grip lo-
cated between the two number plate
lights.When the tailgate is closed, it will
lock automatically, and can only be
reopened by using the key or pulling
leverA (fig. 73)inside the car.
IMPORTANTNever leave the keys
in the boot.
Use the handle situated in the inte-
rior trim of the tailgate A (fig. 74)to
lower it without getting your hands
dirty.
To close the tailgate, lower it and
press in the centre until you hear it

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.

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.

After travelling a few
miles, check the anchorage
bolts of the attachments
are still fully tightened.
Never load the rack with
more than the weight al-
lowed (see the “Technical
specifications” section).
Take care not to knock
the objects on the roof
rack when opening the
boot tailgate.
HEADLIGHTS
CORRECT POSITIONING
OF THE HEADLIGHT BEAMS
The correct positioning of the head-
light beams is very important for the
comfort and safety, not only of the
person driving the car, but also all
other road users.
This is also covered by a specific law.
To ensure you and other drivers
have the best visibility conditions
when travelling with the headlights
on, the headlights must be set pro-
perly.
Have the headlight position checked
at a LANCIA Dealershipand ad-
justed if necessary.
