CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELYFor optimal protection in the event of a collision,
all passengers must be seated and wearing
adequate restraint systems.
This prescription is compulsory in all EC countries
according to EC Directive 2003/20/EC.
This is even more important for children.
Compared with adults, a child's head is
proportionally larger and heavier than the rest of
the body, while muscles and bone structure are not
fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems are necessary
which are different from adult seat belts.
The results of research on the best child restraint
systems are contained in the European Standard
ECE-R44, which enforces the use of restraint
systems classified into five groups:Group Weight groups
Group 0 up to 10 kg in weight
Group 0+ up to 13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg of weight
All restraint devices must bear the type-approval
data along with the control mark on a label firmly
secured to the child seat which must never be
removed. When over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems, children are
considered as adults and have to wear the
standard seat belts. Lineaccessori Lancia includes
child seats for each weight group. These devices
are recommended having been specifically
designed for Lancia cars.
WARNING
Do not arrange cradle child seats
facing backwards if
the front air bag
on the passenger's side is enabled.
Deployment of the air bag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the baby
regardless of the severity of the collision. It
is advisable to always carry children in a
child seat on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a collision.

INTERIORSPeriodically check for water puddles under the
mats that could cause the panels to rust.
WARNING
Never use flammable products, such
as petrol ether
or rectified petrol to
clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic
charges which are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation may cause a
fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
they might explode.
Aerosol cans
must not be exposed to a temperature
exceeding 50°C. When the car is exposed to
sunlight, internal temperature can greatly
exceed this value.
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum
cleaner. It is advisable to use a moist brush on
velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge and a solution of
water and mild soap.PLASTIC AND COATED PARTS
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp cloth (if
possible made from microfibre), and a solution
of water and neutral, non-abrasive detergent. To
clean oily or persistent stains, use specific
products free from solvents and designed to
maintain the original appearance and colour of
the components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre cloth, if
necessary moistened with water. The use of paper
tissues is not recommended as these may leave
residues.
IMPORTANT Never use spirits or petroleum to
clean the instrument panel.
LEATHER SEATS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Remove the dry dirt with a buckskin or slightly
damp cloth, without exercising too much pressure.
Remove any liquid or grease stains using an
absorbent dry cloth, without rubbing. Then clean
with a soft cloth or buckskin cloth dampened
with water and neutral soap. If the stain persists,
use specific products and observe the instructions
carefully.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol. Make sure that
the cleaning products used contain no alcohol
or alcohol derivatives, even in small quantities.
