use switch A fig. 16 to select the
mirror (left or right) to be adjusted;
adjust the mirror by moving
the switch B in the four directions.
Manual folding
When required, fold the mirrors toward
the vehicle interior.
IMPORTANT When driving, the mirrors
must always be open.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
The left stalk fig. 17 controls the
operation of the daytime running lights,
side lights, dipped beam headlights,
parking lights, main beam headlights,
direction indicators, and "Follow me
home" device.
The ignition key has to be at MAR-ON
for the exterior lights to switch on.
The instrument panel and the various
dashboard controls will come on with
the external lights.AUTOMATIC LIGHT
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. 17 is turned to
. In this
way the side lights and dipped beam
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 display. It is also possible to
deactivate the sensor and switch on the
side lights and dipped beam headlights.
IMPORTANT The sensor cannot detect
the presence of fog. These lights must
therefore be switched on manually in
these circumstances.DAYTIME RUNNING

Ring nut A fig. 20 has four different
positions:
Windscreen wipers off.
Intermittent operation.
Continuous slow operation.
Continuous fast operation.Move the stalk upwards (unstable
position) to limit operation to the time
for which the stalk is held in this
position. When released, the stalk will
return to its default position and the
windscreen wiper will be automatically
stopped.
With ring nut A fig. 20 in
position,
the windscreen wiper will automatically
adapt its operating speed to the speed
of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers
operational, if reverse gear is engaged,
the rearscreen wiper is automatically
activated.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)

This is located behind the interior rear
view mirror, in contact with the
windscreen fig. 21 and can detect the
presence of rain and, consequently,
manage the cleaning of the windscreen
in accordance with the amount of
water on the screen.
Activation
The sensor is activated when the ring
nut A fig. 20 is turned to
position:
the windscreen wiper stroke frequency
is thus adjusted in accordance with
the amount of water on the windscreen.The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be
adjusted through the Setup menu

excessive stress and the motor cut-out
switch, which prevents operation for a few
seconds, may intervene. If operation is
not restored (even after using the key to
restart the engine), contact a Lancia
Dealership.
7)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
8)Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car wash.9)Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.
10)Do not use the rear window wiper to
remove layers of snow or ice. In such
conditions, the wiper may be subjected to

DRIVING
ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
iTPMS System (indirect
Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
67) 68) 69) 70) 71) 72)
The car can be equipped with the
iTPMS (indirect Tire Pressure
Monitoring System) which monitors the
tyre inflation status thanks to wheel
speed sensors.
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by the
warning
light continuously lit on the instrument
panel and a dedicated warning
message on the display.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can
indicate its position: it is in any case
recommended to check the pressure
on all four tyres.
The system does not recognise the tyre
pressure value, but it is able to indicate
if the pressure of one or more tyres
falls below a certain pressure threshold.
This indication is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the RESET procedure is carried out.Reset procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-
learning" phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road conditions:
optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20
minutes) which starts when the Reset
procedure is carried out.
The Reset procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is
fitted.
Before carrying out the Reset
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the Reset procedure is not carried
out, in all above cases, the
warning
light may give false indications on
one or more tyres.
To carry out the RESET procedure, with
the car stopped and the ignition device
at MAR, use the Main Menu as follows:
briefly press thebutton: the
display will show Reset;
press thebutton or the
button to select ("Yes" or "No");
briefly press thebutton: the
display will show "Confirm";
pressbutton orto select
("Yes" to Reset or "No" to exit the video
page);
press thebutton again to return
to the standard screen or to the main
menu according to where you are in the
menu.
At the end of the Reset procedure the
display will show the "Reset saved"
message, indicating that the self-
learning has been started and you will
hear an acoustic warning beep.
If the iTPMS self-learning is not properly
executed, the message is not
displayed, and no beep is heard.
Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h.
In a few situations such as sporty
driving, particular conditions of the road
surface (e.g. icy, snowy, unsurfaced
roads...) the signalling may be delayed
or partial in detecting the contemporary
deflation of more than one tyre.
