“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This allows the space in front of the car to be lit
up for a certain period of time.
Activation:with the ignition key on STOP or
removed, pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
within 2 minutes from when the engine is turned
off.
At each single movement of the stalk, the lights
will remain on for an extra 30 seconds up to a
maximum of 210 seconds; then the lights are
switched off automatically.
Each time the stalk is operated, the
warning
light on the instrument panel switches on and the
display also shows a message and how long the
function will remain active.The
warning light switches on when the stalk
is first moved and stays on until the function is
automatically deactivated. Each movement of the
stalk only increases the amount of time the lights
stay on.
Deactivation:keep the stalk pulled towards the
steering wheel for more than two seconds.

Deactivation
Move the stalk ring nut away from the position
or turn the ignition key to STOP.
If the ignition key is turned to the STOP position
leaving the ring nut A in position
, no wiping
cycle is performed at the next startup (ignition key
to the MAR position) even if rain is present. This
prevents unwanted activation of the rain sensor
when the engine is started (i.e. when the
windscreen is being washed by hand or the wipers
are stuck to the windscreen by ice).
To restore automatic operation of the rain sensor,
turn ring nut A from
position to
position
and then turn the ring nut back to the
position.
When the rain sensor is reactivated using any of
the manoeuvres described above, reactivation
is indicated by a single stroke of the windscreen
wipers, regardless of the condition of the
windscreen.If the sensitivity is changed whilst the rain sensor
is operating, a windscreen wiper stroke is carried
out to confirm the change even if the windscreen
is dry.
In the event of malfunction of the rain sensor
whilst it is active, the windscreen wiper operates
intermittently at a speed consistent with the
sensitivity setting of the rain sensor, regardless of
whether there is rain on the glass (on some
versions sensor failure is indicated on the display).
The sensor continues to operate and it is possible
to set the windscreen wiper to continuous mode
(1
stor 2
nd
speed). The failure indication remains
for as long as the sensor is active.

Deactivation
The function stops when the stalk is released.
Do not use the rear window wiper to
remove layers of snow or ice. In these
conditions, the windscreen wipers may
be submitted to excessive effort resulting in
the motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation being inhibited for a few seconds. If
operation is not restored, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
CRUISE CONTROL(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving
assistance device which allows the car to be driven
at a chosen speed above 30 km/h on long
stretches of dry, straight roads with few variations
(e.g. motorways), without having to depress the
accelerator pedal.
The use of this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic is not therefore recommended. Do not
use the device in town.
Activating the device
Turn ring nut A fig. 37 to ON. Activation is
indicated by the
warning light switching on
and, on some versions, by a message on the
display.

ECO FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Press the ECO button fig. 47 for at least 5 seconds
to activate the function.
When the ECO function is activated, the car is set
for city driving, characterised by less effort on
the steering wheel (Dualdrive system on) and
reduced fuel consumption.
When this function is activated, the word ECO on
the display will light up on some versions.
This function stays in the memory, so when the
vehicle is started again, the system keeps the
setting it had before the engine was stopped. Press
the ECO button again to deactivate the function
and restore the normal driving setting.FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
This intervenes in the event of an impact causing:
❒the interruption of the fuel supply with the
engine consequently cutting out
❒the automatic unlocking of the doors
❒the automatic switching on of the interior lights
❒the switching on of the hazard warning lights.
On some versions, the intervention of the system is
indicated by a message shown on the display.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the car for fuel
leaks, for instance in the engine compartment,
under the car or near the tank area. After a
collision, turn the ignition key to STOP to prevent
the battery from running down.

HEADLAMP ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the
MAR position and the dipped headlights on.
Headlight alignment adjustment
Press the
or
buttons to adjust fig. 69. The
instrument panel display shows the position in
relation to the adjustment set.
Position 0 - one or two persons on the front seats
Position1-4persons
Position2-4persons + load in the luggage
compartment
Position 3 - driver + maximum admissible load all
stored in the luggage compartment.
IMPORTANT Check alignment every time the
load carried changes.IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with (Xenon)
gas discharge headlights, the headlight alignment
is controlled electronically, as a consequence the
and
buttons are not present.
FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
headlights properly adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
Dipped headlights are adjusted to drive in the
country where the vehicle was originally
purchased. When travelling in countries with
opposite driving direction, to avoid dazzling the
drivers on the other side of the road, you need
to cover areas of the headlight according to the
Highway code of the country you are travelling in.

Activation/deactivation of the ASR system
The ASR system activates automatically each time
the engine is started.
Whilst driving, the ASR can be deactivated and
subsequently activated again by pressing the ASR
OFF button fig. 70.
On some versions, the intervention of the system is
indicated by a message shown on the display.
When the system is not active, the LED on the
button ASR OFF turns on and, on some versions,
a message appears on the display.
When the ASR is deactivated whilst driving, the
next time the car is started the ASR is
automatically activated.
When travelling on snowy roads with snow chains,
it may be helpful to turn the ASR off: in fact, in
these conditions, slipping of the drive wheels when
moving off makes it possible to obtain better
traction.
WARNING
For the ESC and ASR systems to
function correctly, all four tyres must,
above all, be the type, brand and size
prescribed, of the same brand and type, and
must be in excellent condition.
WARNING
The ESC functions even when the
space-saver wheel is being used.
Always remember that the space-saver
wheel, being smaller than the original
wheel, provides less grip.
WARNING
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with the ESC
and ASR systems. Your driving style must
always be suited to the road conditions,
visibility and traffic. The driver is always
responsible for road safety.

BRAKE ASSIST
The system, which cannot be turned off,
recognises emergency braking (on the basis of the
brake pedal operating speed) and speeding up
the response of the braking system. The Brake
Assist device is deactivated if there is a ESC
system failure.
MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This system is an integral part of the ABS, that
intervenes, if there is sudden downshifting,
restoring torque to the engine, thereby preventing
excessive drive at the drive wheels which,
especially in poor grip conditions, could lead to a
loss in stability of the car.
START&STOP SYSTEMINTRODUCTION
The Start&Stop system automatically stops the
engine each time the car is stationary and starts it
again when the driver wants to move off. In this
way, the car efficiency is increased, by reducing
consumption, dangerous gas emissions and noise
pollution.
OPERATING MODES
Engine stopping mode
With the car stopped, the engine stops with
gearbox in neutral and clutch pedal released.
NoteThe engine can only be stopped
automatically after driving at a speed of more
than about 10 km/h, to prevent the engine from
being repeatedly stopped when driving at walking
pace.
The
symbol appears on the display when the
engine stops.
Restarting the engine
Press the clutch pedal to restart the engine.

ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, to limit harmful emissions
and for safety purposes, the engine can restart
automatically without any action by the driver if
certain conditions are met, including:
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒reduced braking system vacuum (e.g. if the
brake pedal is pressed repeatedly);
❒car moving (e.g. when driving on roads with a
gradient);
❒engine stopping by Start&Stop system for over
3 minutes;
❒for versions equipped with automatic climate
control (for versions/markets where provided),
to enable suitable thermal comfort or with
MAX-DEF activation.
With gear engaged, automatic engine restarting is
possible only by fully depressing the clutch pedal.
The driver is informed by the displaying of a
message on the display and - for versions/markets,
where provided - by the flashing of the symbol
.Notes
If the clutch is not pressed, 3 minutes after the
engine stops, the engine can be restarted only
using the ignition key.
In cases when the engine stops and this is not
desired, due for example to the clutch pedal being
released sharply with a gear engaged, if the
Start&Stop system is activated, the engine can be
restarted by fully depressing the clutch pedal or
by placing the gear lever in neutral.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped by the Start&Stop
system, if the driver releases his/her seat belt and
opens the driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only using the ignition key.
The driver is informed by a buzzer and by the
flashing of the symbol
on the display; on some
versions, a message is displayed as well.
