When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) is shown on
the display, the GSI is advising the driver to
engage a higher gear, while the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon advises the driver to engage a
lower gear.
The indication in the instrument panel remains on
until the driver changes gear or the driving
conditions return to a situation where changing
gear is not required to improve consumption.

THE LANCIA CODE SYSTEMTo further protect your car from theft, it has been
fitted with an engine immobilising system. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key
is removed.
Each key contains an electronic device which
modulates the signal emitted during ignition by an
antenna built into the ignition device. The signal
is the "password", different every time the car
is started, through which the control unit
recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the car is started by turning the ignition
key to MAR, the Lancia CODE system control
unit sends an acknowledgement code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the immobilizer. The
code is sent only if the control unit of the Lancia
CODE system has acknowledged the code received
from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the
Lancia CODE system deactivates the functions
of the engine management control unit. If, during
starting, the code is not correctly recognised, the
warning light switches on in the instrument
panel. In this case, turn the key to STOP and then
to MAR; if it is still locked, try again with the
other keys that come with the vehicle. Contact a
Lancia Dealership if you still cannot start the
engine.Warning light
switching on while driving
If the
warning light switches on, this means
that the system is running a self-diagnosis (for
example for a voltage drop). If the problem
persists, contact a Lancia Dealership.

WARNING
The daytime running lights are an

lights on during the day, and they are also
permitted in those countries where this not
obligatory.
WARNING

When the ignition key is turned to STOP or
removed and the ring nut is turned from O to

all the side lights and number plate lights switch
on. The
warning light will come on in the
instrument panel.
PARKING LIGHTS
These lights can only be turned on with ignition
key in STOP position or removed, by moving
the ring nut A first to positionOand then to

switches on on the
instrument panel. When the direction indicator
stalk is activated the side for the lights (left or
right) can be selected.
AUTOMATIC LIGHTING CONTROL
(AUTOLIGHT) (Dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This infrared LED sensor, combined with the rain
sensor and located on the windscreen, detects
the variations in outside brightness depending on
the light sensitivity set with the Setup Menu:
the greater the sensitivity, the less external light is
required to activate the exterior lights.
Activation
The dusk sensor activates when ring nut A fig. 34
is turned to
. In this way the side lights and
dipped headlights are activated automatically
according to the external light level.When the lights are turned on by the sensor, the
fog lights (for versions/markets, where provided)
and the rear fog lights may be turned on. When
the lights are automatically switched off, the front
and rear fog lights (if activated) are also switched
off. The next time the lights are switched on
automatically, the fog lights must be reactivated
manually (if required).
With the sensor active, it is possible to flash the
headlights but the main beam headlights cannot
be switched on. To activate these lights, turn
the ring nut A to
and activate the fixed dipped
beam headlights.
When the lights have been activated automatically
and are then switched off by the sensor, the
dipped beam headlights are switched off first,
followed by the side lights a few seconds later. If
the sensor is activated but is malfunctioning,
the side lights and dipped beam headlights are
switched on irrespective of the outside light level
and the sensor failure is indicated on the
instrument panel display. It is also possible to
deactivate the sensor and switch on the side lights
and dipped beam headlights.
IMPORTANT The sensor is unable to detect the
presence of fog. Under these circumstances, these
lights are therefore turned on manually.
