D Heated rear window activation/deactivation
button fig. 32.
When the function is active, the LED on the
button is lit up.
In order to maintain battery efficiency, the
function is automatically deactivated after about
20 minutes.
E Fan speed knob and climate control system
activation/deactivation fig. 32. Press the knob
to activate the climate control system; the
LED on the knob switches on. This enables
rapid cooling of the passenger compartment.
NoteTo stop the air flow from the vents turn the
knob to 0.

demisting/defrosting (MAX-DEF)
Proceed as follows:
❒turn knob A to the red section;❒move slider B to
;
❒turn knob C to
;
❒turn knob E to 4 (maximum fan speed).
IMPORTANT The climate control system is very
useful for speeding up demisting since it
dehumidifies the air. Adjust the controls as
described above and press button
to activate the
climate control system (the LED on the button
will light up).
ADDITIONAL HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This device speeds up passenger compartment
warming when it is very cold. The additional
heater turns off automatically after reaching the
required comfort conditions.
The heater only works if the outside temperature
and engine coolant temperature are low. The
heater will not activate if the battery voltage is too
low.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system must be
turned on at least once a month for about
10 minutes. Have the system inspected at a
Lancia Dealership before the summer.

❒climate control compressor activation.
WARNING
It is advisable not to use the internal
air recirculation function
when the
outside temperature is low, because the
windows could mist rapidly.
ADJUSTING THE FAN SPEED
Press button
to increase/decrease the fan speed.
The possible speeds are indicated by bars lighting
up on the display:
❒maximum fan speed = all bars lit
❒minimum fan speed = one bar lit.
The fan can be disabled (no bars lit) only if the
climate control compressor has been switched off
by pressing button
.
To restore automatic fan speed control after a
manual adjustment, press the AUTO button.
RAPID FRONT WINDOW DEMISTING/
DEFROSTING (MAX-DEF function)
Press buttonMAXto automatically activate
the timed operation of all the functions required to
rapidly demist/defrost the windscreen and front
side windows.The functions are:
❒climate control compressor activation (with an
outside temperature of above 4°C)
❒deactivation, if previously activated, of the
internal air recirculation
❒activation of heated rear window (LED on
buttonMAX
on) and door mirror heater
coils
❒setting maximum air temperature
❒activation of air flow.
DEMISTING/DEFROSTING OF HEATED
REAR WINDOW AND DOOR MIRRORS
Press button
to activate: when this function is
activated, the button LED switches on.
This function is timed and will deactivate
automatically after 20 minutes. Press button
again to switch the function off in advance.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on the inside
of the rear window over the heating filaments
to avoid damage.
IMPORTANT To draw in air from outside, press
button

Electrical devices
Only use electrical devices for the time needed.
The heated rear window, additional headlights,
windscreen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, therefore
increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25% in the
urban cycle).
Climate control system
The use of the climate control system leads to
higher fuel consumption. If the temperature
outside permits, try to use ventilation only.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic
control may adversely affect air drag and fuel
consumption.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at a
standstill or at idle or high speed: under these
conditions the engine warms up much more
slowly, increasing consumption and emissions. It is
therefore advisable to move off immediately,
slowly, avoiding high speeds: in this way
the engine will warm up more quickly.Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when at traffic lights or before
stopping the engine. This and also double
declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars
and also increases consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and road
conditions allow. Using a low gear for faster
acceleration will increase consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high gear
increases consumption, emissions and engine wear.
Maximum speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases as speed
increases. Maintain a constant speed, avoiding
unnecessary braking and acceleration, which cost
in terms of both fuel and emissions.
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on
fuel consumption and emissions: accelerate
gradually.
