or backwards: in driving position your arms
should rest on the rim of the steering wheel.
WARNING
Once you have released the

the seat is locked on the guides by trying to
move it back and forth. If the seat is not
locked into place, it may unexpectedly slide
and cause the driver to lose control of the

Downwards adjustment:press button A fig. 22
and lower the head restraint.
"Anti-Whiplash" Device
The head restraints are equipped with an
“Anti-Whiplash” device, which reduces the
distance between head and head restraint in the
event of a rear impact, thus mitigating the
"whiplash" effect.
The head restraint may move when the backrest is
pressed by the occupant's torso or hand: this
behaviour is caused by the system and should not
be considered a malfunction.
WARNING
All adjustments must be made with
the car stationary
. Head restraints
must be adjusted so that the head, rather
than the neck, rests on them. Only when they
are adjusted in this manner can they serve
their intended purpose.
WARNING
To make the best use of the head
restraint's protective action,
adjust
the backrest so that you are sitting upright
and keep your head as close as possible
to the head restraint.
REAR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Two height-adjustable head restraints are
provided for the rear seats. On some versions a
head restraint is also provided for the central seat.
Upwards adjustment:raise the head restraint
until it clicks into place.

Front seats (warning light no. 1 = driver and
no. 4 = passenger)
Driver
If the driver is the only occupant and the seat belt
is not fastened, when 20 km/h is exceeded or
when travelling at a speed from 10 to 20 km/h for
longer than 5 seconds, an acoustic signal sequence
will be started (front seats) consisting of a tone
for 6 seconds followed by a 90 second beep. The
warning light will flash. The warning lights will
stay on fixed at the end of the cycle until the
engine is stopped. The acoustic signal will
be interrupted immediately when the driver's seat
belt is fastened and the warning light will turn
green.
The reminder cycle (acoustic and visual) will be
repeated as described above and the red warning
light will flash if the seat belt is unfastened again
while travelling.
Passenger
A similar situation applies to the front passenger,
with the difference that the warning light turns
green and the indication is also interrupted when
the passenger leaves the car.
It both front seat belts are unfastened while the
car is travelling a few seconds apart, the acoustic
indication will refer to the most recent event
and the two warning lights will proceed with the
visual indication independently.Rear seats (warning light no. 2 and no. 3)
For rear seats, the reminder cycle occurs only
when any seat belt is unfastened (red flashing
warning light). In this condition, the warning light
referred to the seat belt which has been
unfastened will become red and blink for
approximately 30 seconds. An acoustic signal is
also issued.
The visual indication (red flashing) will start and
stop independently for each warning light if
several seat belts are unfastened. The warning
light will become green when the relevant seat belt
is fastened again.
The rear seat warning lights will switch off,
regardless of the state of the belt (red or green)
approximately 30 seconds after the last signal.
IMPORTANT When the ignition key is turned to
MAR, if all the front and rear belts are already
fastened the warning lights will remain lit with a
constant green light for about 30 seconds.

WARNING
For maximum safety, keep the back
of your seat
upright, lean back into it
and make sure the seat belt fits closely
across your chest and pelvis. Always fasten
the seat belts on both the front and the rear
seats! Travelling without wearing seat belts
will increase the risk of serious injury and
even death in the event of an accident.
WARNING
Removing or otherwise tampering
with safety belt
and pretensioner
components is strictly prohibited. Any
operations on these components must be
performed by qualified and authorised
technicians. Always go to a Lancia
Dealership.
The belt must not be twisted. The upper part must
pass over the shoulder and cross the chest
diagonally. The lower part must adhere to the
pelvis (as shown in fig. 95) rather than the
abdomen of the passenger. Never use devices
(clips, pegs, etc.) to hold the seat belt away from
your body.Each seat belt must be used by only one person.
Never travel with a child sitting on the passenger's
lap and a single belt to protect them both fig. 96.
In general, do not place any objects between the
person and belt.

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.
