and blocks the fuel supply, thereby
stopping the engine.

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

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.

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.

HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is situated be-
tween the two front seats.
To put the handbrake on, pull it up-
wards until the vehicle is blocked;
normally four or five clicks are suffi-
cient on flat ground, whereas seven or
eight might be necessary when park-
ing on steep slopes with the vehicle
laden.
IMPORTANTIf this is not the case,
take the car to a LANCIA Dealer-
shipto have the handbrake adjusted.
When the ignition key is turned to
MARand the handbrake pulled up,
the warning lamp xwill light up on
the instrument panel.To release the handbrake:
1)Slightly lift the handbrake and
press release button A (fig. 1).
2)Keep the button pressed in and
lower the lever. Instrument panel
warning light xwill go out.
3)To prevent accidental movement
of the car, when releasing the hand-
brake, keep the foot brake depressed.PARKING
Stop the engine, engage the hand-
brake and engage a gear (first gear if
the car is faced uphill or reverse if it
is faced downhill). Leave the wheels
steered. Block the wheels with a
wedge or a stone if the car is parked
on a steep slope.
If the car is parked on a steep slope,
block the wheels with a wedge or a
stone.
Do not leave the ignition key at
MARbecause it drains the battery.
Always remove the key when you
leave the car even if it is only for a few
moments.
Do not leave children un-
supervised in the car.

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.
