DEACTIVATION
To activate/deactivate the system
manually, press the A fig. 73 button on
the dashboard control panel.

WARNING
114)When replacing the battery, always
contact a Lancia Dealership. Replace
the battery with one of the same
type (HEAVY DUTY) and with the same
specifications.
115)We recommend that you remove the
key from the ignition if other people remain
in the vehicle. Exit from the vehicle only
after having removed the ignition key
or having rotated it to the STOP position.
During refuelling, make sure that the engine
is off and that the ignition key is in the
STOP position.
WARNING
43)If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Stop/Start system can be disabled, for a
continuous operation of the climate control
system.
CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
116) 117)
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance device that allows
the desired vehicle speed to be
maintained, without having to press the
accelerator pedal.
This device can be used at a speed
above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,
straight roads with few variations (e.g.
motorways).
It is therefore not recommended to use
this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use the device in town.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
Turn ring nut A fig. 74 to ON. Activation
is indicated by the
warning light
switching on and, on some versions, by
a message on the display.
Storing the car speed
Proceed as follows:
turn ring nut A fig. 74 to ON and
press the accelerator pedal so that the
car reaches the desired speed;73L0F0421C

WARNING
118)Parking manoeuvres, however, are
always the driver’s responsibility. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The parking sensors are used
to assist the driver, who must never allow
his attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds.
WARNING
44)For correct operation of the system,
sensors must always be clean from mud,
dirt, snow or ice. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of vehicle
shampoo if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure
jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors
very quickly keeping the jet more than
10 cm away. Also, do not apply stickers to
the sensors.
45)Have interventions on the bumper in
the area of the sensors carried out only by
a Lancia Dealership. Interventions on the
bumper that are not carried out properly
may compromise the operation of the
parking sensors.
TOWING TRAILERS
119) 120)
IMPORTANT NOTES
For towing caravans or trailers the
vehicle must be fitted with an approved
tow hook and an adequate electrical
system. Installation must be carried out
by a specialist.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
distances increase and overtaking
takes longer depending on the overall
weight of the trailer.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight the trailer exerts on the
vehicle tow hook reduces the vehicle's
loading capacity by the same amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in
the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In any case, the top speed must not
exceed 100 km/h.
Any electric brake must be powered
directly by the battery through a cable
with a cross-section of no less than 2.5
mm
2.
In addition to the electrical branches,
the vehicle electrical system can only
be connected to the supply cable for an
electric brake and to the cable for an
internal light for the trailer, not
exceeding 15 W. For connections, use
the preset control unit with a battery
cable with section not less than 2.5
mm
2.
IMPORTANT The use of auxiliary loads
other than external lights (electric brake,
etc.) must take place with engine
running.
IMPORTANT To install a tow hook
contact a Lancia Dealership.

SERVICING AND CARE

WARNING
164)Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WARNING
65)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
LIFTING THE CAR
If the car is to be lifted, go to a Lancia
Dealership which is equipped with
arm hoists or workshop lifts.
BRAKES
Depending on the version/market, the
vehicle may be equipped with
mechanical wear detectors for the
brake pads: one for each wheel
assembly.
When the brake linings are close to
wearing out, pressing the brake pedal
will generate a slight squeal: this lasts
for about 100 km (the mileage varies
with the driving style and route).
In this case, it is still possible to
continue driving, with caution.
In any case, contact a Lancia
Dealership as soon as possible to have
the worn brake pads replaced.
