ELECTRIC SUN
ROOF
(for versions/markets, where provided)
21)12)
The large electric sun roof comprises
two glass panels; the front one is
mobile and the rear one fixed. These
are equipped with two sun blinds (front
and rear) that can be moved manually.
With the sun roof closed, the blinds can
be placed in any position.
To open the blinds, grip handle A fig.
25, following the direction indicated by
the arrow until the desired position is
reached. To close them, carry out
the procedure in reverse.
The sun roof can be operated only with
the ignition key turned to MAR.

turn the ignition key to the MAR
position;
Press button B in closed position;
hold down button B until the roof is
completely closed: the initialisation
procedure has ended;
press button B again within 3
seconds from the conclusion of the
initialisation procedure;
hold down button B: the roof will
perform an automatic opening and
closing cycle: should this not occur,
repeat the operation from the
beginning;
keeping button B held down, wait
until the roof is completely closed.
WARNING
21)When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the key from the ignition switch to
avoid the risk of injury to those still inside
the car due to accidental operation of
the sun roof. Improper use of the roof can
be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that no-one is
exposed to the risk of being injured by the
moving sunroof or by objects getting
caught or hit by it.
WARNING
12)Do not open the sun roof if there is
snow or ice on it: you may damage it. In
vehicles with sun roof no roof rack can be
fitted.
CONTROLS
DUALDRIVE ELECTRIC
POWER STEERING
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This only operates with the ignition
key turned to MAR and the engine
started. Electric power steering allows
the force required at the steering wheel
to be adapted to the driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
Activation / Deactivation (CITY
function)
Press the CITY button (A-fig. 27) to
activate the function. When this
function is active, the word CITY on the
instrument panel will light up.
26L0F0299C
27L0F0428C
29

When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.
To deactivate the function press the
button again.
IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder: this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating, so no
repair is required. When the car is
used again later on, the power steering
will work normally.
ECO FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Press the ECO button fig. 28 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.
WARNING
22)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in the car not
meeting type-approval requirements.
23)Before starting any servicing operation,
stop the engine and remove the key from
the ignition switch to operate the steering
lock, particularly when the wheels do
not touch the ground. If this is not possible
(for example if the key needs to be turned
to MAR or the engine must be running),
remove the main fuse that protects the
electric power steering.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the car registration date. If
the vehicle has been registered in a
country other than Italy, the duration
and the testing/inspection procedures
of the LPG tank can vary depending on
the national provisions in force in that
country. In any case, when the time limit
in the individual country has run out,
contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
tank replaced.SELECTION OF
PETROL/LPG SUPPLY
TYPE
30)17) 18) 19) 19) 20) 21)
The petrol/LPG switch A fig. 38 allows
drivers to select petrol or LPG
operation.
To guarantee switching in full safety, the
actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on the
car usage conditions; it may not
therefore be immediate. Switching is
confirmed by the switching on/off of the
icon on the display.
If the LPG runs out, switching to petrol
takes place automatically. In this case
the display shows the
icon just
above the LPG wording and all the bars
of the edges for the empty notches
light up constantly.REFUELLING
22)
Maximum refuelling capacity (including
reserve): 30.5 litres. The figure already
takes into account the 80% tank filling
limit and the residual fluid required
for priming; this figure represents the
maximum permitted capacity. In
addition, after different refuelling
processes, this figure may vary due to
differences between the network pump
supply pressures, pumps having
different supply/locking features, tank
not completely run out of fuel.
WARNING
29)Note that in some countries (including
Italy) there are legal restrictions in force
for parking/garaging motor vehicles fuelled
by gas that is denser than air; LPG comes
under this category.
30)Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

WARNING
14)The car is equipped with a gaseous
LPG injection system designed specifically
for it: it is therefore absolutely forbidden
to alter the configuration of the system or
its components. The use of other
components or materials could cause
malfunctions and lead to a reduction
in safety. If you experience problems, go to
a Lancia Dealership. When towing or
lifting the vehicle, follow the instructions in
the main handbook under the paragraph
on "Towing the vehicle" to prevent damage
to the gas system parts.
15)When using a painting oven, the LPG
tank should be removed from the car
and later carefully refitted at a Lancia
Dealership. Although the LPG system has
numerous safety features, it is advisable
to proceed as follows every time the
vehicle is not in use for a long period or
moved in an emergency as a result of
a breakdown or accident: unscrew the
fastening devices A fig. 35, then remove
the cover B. Close the LPG cock rotating
the ring nut C fig. 36 clockwise. Refit
the cover and retighten the fastening
devices.
16)Periodically (at least once every six
months) it is advisable to let the LPG in the
tank run out and, at the first refuelling, to
check that it does not exceed the
maximum capacity of 30.5 litres (reserve
included) (with a tolerance of 2 litres
excess). If the level is above 30.5 litres
(reserve included) contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately.17)The system operates at temperatures
ranging between -20°C and 100°C.
18)If, during LPG operation, LPG runs out,
the system automatically switches to
petrol operation as indicated by thewarning light on the display.
19)Regardless of the last fuel system
used, at the following engine starting, after
the initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to LPG.
20)When switching is requested, metallic
noise from the valves which pressurise
the circuit can be heard. For the switching
logic described above, a delay between the
valve ticking and the switching off of the
instrument panel indication is completely
normal.
21)In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature or LPG supply with low
propane content, the system may switch
temporarily to petrol operation, without
a visual indication of switching on the
instrument panel. In the event of low LPG
levels in the tank or request for high
performance (e.g. overtaking, car fully
laden, steep hills) the system may
automatically switch to petrol operation to
guarantee the engine power requested; the
icon
on the display switches on to
indicate this. When the above conditions
are no longer present, the system
automatically restores LPG operation and
the
icon switches off. To achieve the
automatic switching described above,
make sure that there is always enough fuel
in the petrol tank.
22)It is strictly forbidden to use any
additive in the LPG.
VERSION WITH
METHANE SYSTEM
(Natural Power)
31) 32)
INTRODUCTION
The "Natural Power" version features
two fuel systems, one for petrol and
one for natural gas (methane).
METHANE CYLINDERS
The vehicle is equipped with two
cylinders (total capacity about 72 litres)
fig. 39fig. 40 located under the floor
of the vehicle and protected by two
special guards.
39L0F0106C
35

In addition, when starting at outside
temperatures below approximately
–10°C, the switching times from petrol
to methane increase to allow the
pressure regulator/reduction unit to
heat up.
If the methane runs out, switching to
petrol takes place automatically. In this
case the display shows the
icon
just above the CNG wording and all the
bars of the edges for the empty
notches light up constantly.
REFUELLING
Maximum refuelling capacity (including
reserve): 12 kg. The total volume of
cylinders is about 72 litres.
WARNING
31)The car is equipped with a high-
pressure methane system designed to
operate at 200 rated bar. It is dangerous to
stretch the system with higher pressures.
To prevent damage to the methane system
parts when towing or raising the car,
follow the instructions in the "Towing the
vehicle" paragraph in the "In Emergency"
chapter. If there is a problem with the
methane system, only contact a Lancia
Dealership. Do not modify configuration or
components of the methane system;
they have been designed exclusively for
this car. The use of other components
or materials could cause malfunctions and
prejudice safety.32)When oven painting, the cylinders
should be removed from the vehicle and
later carefully refitted by a Lancia
Dealership. Although the methane system
has numerous safety features, it is
advisable to close the manual cocks for the
cylinders every time the vehicle is not in
use for a long period, transported on other
vehicles or moved in an emergency as a
result of a breakdown or accident.
33)Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
WARNING
23)If, during methane operation, the same
runs out, the car switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars on the
display switch off. This displaying remains
until the next methane refuelling.
24)Regardless of the last fuel system
used, at the following engine starting, after
the initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to methane.
25)When switching is requested, metallic
noise from the valves which pressurise
the circuit can be heard. For the switching
logics described above, a delay between
the valve ticking and the switching off
of the indication on the display is absolutely
normal.26)In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature, the system may switch
temporarily to petrol operation, without
indicating the performed switching. In the
event of low methane levels in the tank
or request for high performance (e.g.
overtaking, car fully laden, steep hills) the
system may automatically switch to petrol
operation to guarantee the engine power
requested; the
icon on the display
switches on to indicate this. When the
above conditions are no longer present,
the system automatically restores methane
operation and the
icon switches off.
To achieve the automatic switching
described above, make sure that there is
always enough fuel in the petrol tank.
