When the ignition key is
turned to MAR (passenger
front airbag deactivation
switch at ON), the warning light
will come on for approximately
four seconds and flash for other
four seconds to remind the driver
that the passenger’s front and side
airbags will be fired in the event of
a crash. The warning light should
go out immediately afterwards.
If an attempt has been
made to steal the car, or if
it has actually been stolen
or has been vandalised in any way
or subjected to flooding, have the
airbag system checked over at a
Lancia Dealership.
If the car changes hands, the new
owner must be made aware of the in-
dications given above and be given
this “Owner Handbook”.
IMPORTANT
Pretensioners, front
airbags and side airbags are activated
by the electronic control unit accord-
ing to the type of impact. Conse-
quently, missed activation of one or
more system components does not in-
dicate a fault in the system.
GENERAL NOTES
If the
¬
warning light
does not turn on when
turning the ignition key to
MAR or if it stays on when travel-
ling, this could indicate a failure
in safety retaining systems; under
this condition air bags or preten-
sioners could not trigger in the
event of collision or, in a restricted
number of cases, they could trig-
ger accidentally. Stop the car and
contact Lancia Dealership to have
the system checked immediately.
The air bag system has a validity of
14 years as to the pyrotechnic charge,
and 10 years as to the twisted contact.
As this date approaches, contact
Lan-
cia Dealership
to have it replaced.
IMPORTANT
After an accident
which triggered the airbags, go to a
Lancia Dealership
to have the en-
tire safety system, the electronic con-
trol unit, the seat belts and the pre-
tensioners replaced and to have the
electrical system checked.
Any diagnostic, repair or replace-
ment operations concerning the
airbag system must exclusively be
carried out at a
Lancia Dealership
.
If you are having the car scrapped,
have the airbag system deactivated at
a
Lancia Dealership
first.
