If the mirror makes it dif-
ficult to get through nar-
row gaps, fold it from po-
sition 1 to position 2 (fig. 15).
When driving the mirrors
should always be in ex-
tended position 1.
The external curved rear
view mirrors slightly alter
the perception of distance.

control is very useful for speeding up
demisting because it dries the air.
Simply adjust the controls for the
demisting function and turn on the
climate control by pressing button

When the slider is in position T
only the inside air is circulated.
IMPORTANTThis function is par-
ticularly useful when the outside air
is heavily polluted (in a traffic jam,
tunnel, etc.). You are advised against
using this function for long periods,
however, especially if there are a lot
of people in the car or on cold and
raining days, since this considerably
increases the possibility of the win-
dows misting up and will reduce vis-
ibility effecting driving conditions.

CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
The climate control system is ad-
justed manually.
CONTROLS (fig. 45)
A- Air temperature knob (mixture
of warm and cold air).
B- Fan knob.
C- Air distribution knob.
D- Air recirculation slider, to elim-
inate external air.IMPORTANTThe recirculation
function allows to cool the air faster.
It is particularly useful when the out-
side air is heavily polluted (in a traf-
fic jam, tunnel, etc.). You are advised
against using this function for long
periods, however, especially if there
are a lot of people in the car or on
cold and raining days, since this con-
siderably increases the possibility of
the windows misting up and will re-
duce visibility effecting driving con-
ditions.
E- Climate control on/off switch.
When the climate control system is
on, the fan will automatically come on
at the first speed.COOLING

To reduce the cooling effect: move
the air recirculation slider to H, in-
crease the temperature and decrease
the fan speed.

The system uses R134a
refrigerating liquid. If it
accidentally leaks it will
not damage the environment.
Never use R12 fluid as it is incom-
patible with the system’s compo-
nents and also contains CFC.

The symbol indicating the presence
of a front passenger airbag is printed
on the under-side of the sun visor
(visible when the visor is pushed up)
(fig. 63).
SUN VISORS (fig. 62)
These are positioned to the sides of
the driving mirror. They can swing up
or down or be pivoted sideways.
On the back of the driver’s sun vi-
sor, there is a document pocket with
a vanity mirror and protective flap.
The inside of the passenger’s sun vi-
sor is only fitted with a vanity mirror.The cigar lighter gets very
hot. Be careful how you
handle it and make sure it
is not used by children: danger of
fire and/or burns.Do not use the ashtray as
a waste-paper basket: the
paper could set fire if it
comes into contact with a smoul-
dering cigarette stub.

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.
