passengers.
WARNING
4)The fabric upholstery of the seats has
been designed to withstand long-term
wear deriving from normal use of the car.
Some precautions are however required.
Avoid prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as
metal buckles and Velcro strips which, by
applying a high pressure on the fabric in
a small area, could cause it to break,
thereby damaging the upholstery.

HEADRESTS
12) 13)
FRONT HEAD
RESTRAINTS
They are height-adjustable: to adjust
them operate as follows.
Upwards adjustment: raise the head
restraint until it clicks into place.
Downward adjustment:press button
A fig. 11 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.
REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS
(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.
Downward adjustment:press button
A fig. 12 and lower the head restraint.
Removal
Proceed as follows to remove the head
restraints:
raise the head restraints to their
maximum height;
press buttons A and B fig. 12 at the
side of the two supports, then remove
the head restraints by pulling them
upwards.
IMPORTANT If the rear seats are used,
always set the head restraints in the
"completely raised" position.
WARNING
12)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 in this case
they can protect your head correctly.
13)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.

Main recommendations to carry
children safely
Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing
child restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
Should a rearward facing child
restraint system be installed on the rear
seats, it is advisable to position it as
far forward as the position of the front
seat allows.
If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
permanent switching-on of the
dedicated warning light on the
instrument panel to make sure that it
has actually been deactivated.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other documents and
this handbook. Do not use second-
hand child restraint systems without
instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No one can hold
a child in the case of an accident.
In the event of an accident, replace
the child restraint system with a new
one.
If child seats facing forward are
used, adjust the headrest of the vehicle
seat in the highest setting position.
WARNING
80)SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision.81)On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if
a rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS)
- Airbag" paragraph).
82)Should it be absolutely necessary to
carry a child on the front seat in a
backwards-facing craddle seat, the
passenger's front and side airbags must be
deactivated through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by checking
the
warning light on the instrument
panel. Move the passenger's seat as far
back as possible to avoid contact between
the child seat and the dashboard.
83)Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
84)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided
by the Manufacturer.
85)When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.

SAFETY

Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
in different ways on the basis of the
type of collision. Failure to activate one
or more of the devices does not
indicate a system malfunction.

WARNING
91)Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard in
the passenger side airbag area, on side
upholstery on the roof or on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on
the passenger side of the dashboard
since they could interfere with correct
inflation of the passenger airbag and also
cause serious injury to the passengers.
92)Always drive with your hands on the
rim of the steering wheel so that the airbag
can inflate freely if required. Do not drive
with your body bent forward. Keep your
back straight against the backrest.93)When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing
child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
side airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint system is installed on the front
passenger seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to prevent the child
restraint system from coming into contact
with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate
the passenger airbag as soon as the child
restraint system has been removed.
94)Do not affix rigid objects to the garment
hooks or support handles.
95)Do not rest your head, arms or elbows
on the door, windows or the area in which
the window bag is located to avoid
possible injury during airbag inflation.
96)Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.
97)If, when the key is turned to MAR, the
warning light does not switch on or
stays on whilst driving, a fault may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the airbags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before continuing, contact
a Lancia Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
98)For versions/markets where provided,
in the event of
warning light failure,
thewarning light switches on and the
explosive charges of the passenger airbag
are deactivated.99)On cars with side bags, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.
100)Do not travel carrying objects in
your lap, in front of your chest or between
your lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could
cause severe injury if the airbag is
deployed.
101)If your car has been subject to theft,
attempted theft, vandalism, or flooding,
contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
airbag system checked.
102)The airbags may also be deployed
when the car is not moving, if the key is in
the ignition and turned to MAR-ON or
when the engine is off, if the car is hit by
another moving vehicle. Therefore, even if
the vehicle is stationary, when an active
front passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT
install rearward facing child restraint
systems on the front passenger seat.
Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Therefore, always deactivate the
passenger side airbag when a rearward
facing child restraint system is installed on
the front passenger seat. The front
passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to prevent
the child restraint system from coming
into contact with the dashboard.
Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system
has been removed. Also remember that, if
the key is turned to STOP, none of the
safety devices (airbags or pretensioners)
will be deployed in the event of collision.
Non-deployment in such cases does
not indicate a system malfunction.
